Hi Matt,
I ended up creating my own MobileApplicationPage sub-class and adding a ESRI.ArcGIS.Mobile.Client.Controls.GeometryCollectionControl to it. This provides all the methods needed to get a geometry. I couldn't work out how to remove the geometry collection methods panel from the left hand side though.
As the API documentation is missing the 'ESRI.ArcGIS.Mobile.Client' assembly I found the JetBrains dotPeek freeware an essential tool to digging through the 'ESRI.ArcGIS.Mobile.Client' and 'ESRI.ArcGIS.Mobile' dlls and working out what UI components are available and also how the code works underneath.
Here is some code:
// This code creates the view model
Feature feature = new Feature(featureType, null);
GeometryCollectionViewModel model = new GeometryCollectionViewModel(feature, new ObservableCollection<GeometryCollectionMethod>());
// Then in the custom page set the view model on the GeometryCollectionControl
control.GeometryCollectionViewModel = model;
/// <summary>
/// Whether the current geometry displayed on this page is valid.
/// </summary>
public Boolean IsGeometryValid
{
get
{
GeometryCollectionViewModel viewModel = _geometryCollectionControl.GeometryCollectionViewModel;
GeometryCollectionMethod method = viewModel.GetCollectionMethodInProgress();
if (method != null && method.Geometry != null)
{
return method.Geometry.IsValid;
}
return false;
}
}
/// <summary>
/// The geometry that has been entered on this page.
/// </summary>
public Geometry Geometry
{
get
{
GeometryCollectionViewModel viewModel = _geometryCollectionControl.GeometryCollectionViewModel;
GeometryCollectionMethod method = viewModel.GetCollectionMethodInProgress();
if (method != null)
return method.Geometry;
else
return null;
}
}
Hope this helps 🙂
