Display an alert message when a graphic is clicked.

Use case
A user may wish to select a graphic on a map to view relevant information about it.
How to use the sample
Select a graphic to identify it. You will see an alert message displayed.
How it works
- Create a
GraphicsOverlayand add it to theMapView. - Add a
Graphicalong with aSimpleFillSymbolto the graphics overlay. - Create a
Pointfrom the location clicked on the map view by the user from theMapQuickView::mouseClickedsignal. - Identify the graphic on the map view with
identifyGraphicsOverlayAsync(GraphicsOverlay*, QPointF, double, bool, int).
Relevant API
- Graphic
- GraphicsOverlay
- MapView
