autoDestroyDisabled

Property
autoDestroyDisabled: boolean

If true, the component will not be destroyed automatically when it is disconnected from the document. This is useful when you want to move the component to a different place on the page, or temporarily hide it. If this is set, make sure to call the destroy method when you are done to prevent memory leaks.

Attribute
auto-destroy-disabled
Default value
false

icon

Property
icon: string

Icon which represents the component. Typically used when the component is controlled by another component (e.g. by the Expand component).

view

Property
view: MapView

The view associated with the component.

Note: The recommended approach is to fully migrate applications to use map and scene components and avoid using MapView and SceneView directly. However, if you are migrating a large application from widgets to components, you might prefer a more gradual transition. To support this use case, the SDK includes this view property which connects a component to a MapView or SceneView. Ultimately, once migration is complete, the Area Measurement 2D component will be associated with a map or scene component rather than using the view property.
