Inheritance:
ArcgisNavigationTogglePublicLitElement

The Navigation Toggle component can be used to control the navigation mode of a Scene component.

When the navigation mode is set to "pan" (default), the mouse drag gesture pans the view and right-click + drag allows the user to rotate the view. When the navigation mode is set to "rotate", the mouse drag gesture rotates the view and right-click + drag pans the view.

Known limitations

Navigation Toggle is only supported in a 3D arcgis-scene component.

autoDestroyDisabled

Property
Type
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
Type
Icon["icon"] | undefined

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

label

Property
Type
string | undefined

The component's default label.

Attribute
label

layout

reflected Property
Type
"horizontal" | "vertical"

The layout direction of the component.

Attribute

Default value
"vertical"

messageOverrides

Property
Type
Record<string, unknown> | undefined

Replace localized message strings with your own strings.

Note: Individual message keys may change between releases.

reflected Property
Type
"pan" | "rotate"

The navigation mode of the view. The possible values:

  • pan - The mouse drag gesture pans the view. Right-click + drag allows the user to perform a 3D rotate around the center of the view.
  • rotate - The mouse drag gesture performs a 3D rotate around the center of the view and the right-click + drag gesture pans the view.
Attribute
navigation-mode
Default value
"pan"

referenceElement

Property
Type
ArcgisReferenceElement | string | undefined

By assigning the id attribute of the Map or Scene component to this property, you can position a child component anywhere in the DOM while still maintaining a connection to the Map or Scene.

Attribute

state

readonlyreflected Property
Type
NavigationToggleState

The current state of the component.

Attribute
state

view

Property
Type
SceneView | undefined

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 arcgis-navigation-toggle component will be associated with a map or scene component rather than using the view property.

visualScale

Property
Type
Button["scale"]
Since
ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 5.0

Specifies the size of the component.

Attribute
visual-scale
Default value
"m"
