ElevationProfileViewModel
Boolean

Whether the graphic used as input is highlighted.

ElevationProfileViewModel
Number

The position, in the range [0, 1], being hovered in the graph.

ElevationProfileViewModel
Graphic

The input path along which elevation will be queried in order to generate an elevation profile.

Property Details

declaredClass

Inherited
Property
declaredClass Stringreadonly
Inherited from Accessor

The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as esri.folder.className.

effectiveUnits

Property
effectiveUnits EffectiveUnitsreadonly

Units which have been selected according to the magnitude of the elevations and distances that are to be displayed in the widget, according to the selected unit or unit system.

geodesicDistanceThreshold

Property
geodesicDistanceThreshold Number
Deprecated since version 4.29.

Threshold (in meters) which determines the method for computing and displaying distances in non-Web Mercator projected coordinate systems (PCS).

  • Below this threshold, distances are computed in a Euclidean manner (in their respective PCS).
  • Above this threshold, distances are computed geodetically.

If the threshold is omitted (default), distances are always computed in a Euclidean manner.

This property is ignored if the map’s spatial reference is a geographic coordinate system (GCS) or Web Mercator. Meaning that distances are always computed geodetically.

Default Value:null

highlightEnabled

Property
highlightEnabled Boolean
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.20 ElevationProfileViewModel since 4.18, highlightEnabled added at 4.20.

Whether the graphic used as input is highlighted. The highlight color and opacity can be changed in highlightOptions.

Default Value:true

hoveredChartPosition

Property
hoveredChartPosition Number

The position, in the range [0, 1], being hovered in the graph. We'll use this to determine which samples are being hovered and mark their position in the view.

input

Property
input Graphicautocast

The input path along which elevation will be queried in order to generate an elevation profile.

Typically not set when creating the widget. In this case the widget starts empty, and waits for the user to either draw a new profile or generate a profile from selecting a line feature. The result of this action populates input. input can be set when constructing the widget, or set or changed at runtime. The input graphic must contain a geometry of type Polyline. Symbol and attributes of the input graphic are ignored.

Collection of elevation profile lines which are to be generated and displayed in the widget's chart. See the different profile line types for details on usage and behavior.

Once an elevation profile is generated, each line will contain the raw data used to generate the chart and statistics. The order of the profiles within the collection determines the drawing order on the chart.

In a MapView ElevationProfileLineView is not supported.

progress

Property
progress Numberreadonly

The progress, between 0 and 1 of generating all the configured elevation profiles.

state

Property
state Stringreadonly

The current state of the view model that can be used for rendering the UI of the widget.

Value Description
disabled widget is being created
ready widget is ready. No path configured and no interactive operation ongoing.
creating user is creating a new input path.
created input path is configured but no interactive operation is ongoing.
selecting user is selecting an existing input path.
selected user selected an existing input path.

Possible Values:"disabled"|"ready"|"creating"|"created"|"selecting"|"selected"

Default Value:disabled

uniformChartScaling

Property
uniformChartScaling Boolean
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.20 ElevationProfileViewModel since 4.18, uniformChartScaling added at 4.20.

Whether the chart should use a uniform scale for the X and Y axes. When a uniform scale is applied, the X axis will display the same distance units per pixel as the elevation units per pixel displayed in the Y axis.

unit

Property
unit SystemOrLengthUnit

Unit system (imperial, metric) or specific unit used for displaying the elevation and distance values.

unitOptions

Property
unitOptions SystemOrLengthUnit[]

List of available units and unit systems (imperial, metric) for displaying the elevation and distance values.

view

Property
view SceneView|MapView

A reference to the View.

addHandles

Inherited
Method
addHandles(handleOrHandles, groupKey)
Inherited from Accessor
Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25 Accessor since 4.0, addHandles added at 4.25.

Adds one or more handles which are to be tied to the lifecycle of the object. The handles will be removed when the object is destroyed.

// Manually manage handles
const handle = reactiveUtils.when(
  () => !view.updating,
  () => {
    wkidSelect.disabled = false;
  },
  { once: true }
);

this.addHandles(handle);

// Destroy the object
this.destroy();
Parameters
handleOrHandles WatchHandle|WatchHandle[]

Handles marked for removal once the object is destroyed.

groupKey *
optional

Key identifying the group to which the handles should be added. All the handles in the group can later be removed with Accessor.removeHandles(). If no key is provided the handles are added to a default group.

cancel

Method
cancel()

Stops a creation/selection operation and restores the previously configured input path.

clear

Method
clear()

Clears the existing profile and stops any interaction.

obj.removeHandles(); // removes handles from default group

obj.removeHandles("handle-group");
obj.removeHandles("other-handle-group");

start

Method
start(options)

If mode is "sketch" (the default), switches to the "creating" state in which the user can draw a new line. If the mode is "select", switches to the "selecting" state and lets the user click on the view to select an existing line.

If any line is present, when the first point is drawn or an existing line is selected, the previous input is discarded.

Parameters
options Object
optional

Start options.

Specification
mode String
optional
Default Value: "sketch"

The mode that the widget will start with. In "sketch" mode the user can draw a new line and in "select" mode the user can click on the view to select an existing line.
