Snapping Measurement Line Inaccurate

Has anyone else noticed this or is it just my configuration?

 

So I was just playing around with my snapping measurement tool to create a how-to video for my users and noticed some discrepencies in lengths. 

 

In the first image here you can see the annotation of what the property line length should be, the line that is snapped to that property line and the resulting measurement (note the 6ft discrepency):

Now, I am going to highlight the line in the measurement results table and you can see clearly where I clicked when I saw that the line was snapped to the vertex:

 

_img_ alt="User-added image" src="https://latitudegeo--c.na53.content.force.com/servlet/rtaImage?eid=90660000000XaPs&feoid=Body&refid=0EM60000000XqkC" _/_img_

 

Now if I actually click at the snapped location, it is reasonably accurate based on where I place my mouse.

 

But If I use the snapping in the silverlight viewer I get actual accuracy (Line length is 87.328 hence the rounding):

Again, curious if anyone else is noticing this issue, or it is just my configuration.

  Hi Marshall,

   

  Thanks very much for providing screenshots and details as you have. We have already identified and resolved this in the upcoming release of GVH 2.6. We filed and fixed this under GVH-8225. The underlying line which was being used for measure was built on the users mouse point, and not the snapping point.

   

  Sorry for the inconvenience.

   

  Regards,

   

  Kevin

  Good to hear that it is being fixed.  

   

  Can you add it to the known issues page (https://support.geocortex.com/essentialsGSCkba?sub-nav=kba&main-nav=essentials&id=kA360000000Xb3Y (https://support.geocortex.com/essentialsGSCkba?sub-nav=kba&main-nav=essentials&id=kA360000000Xb3Y) )? Unless there is another place that I am missing.

   

  And since snapping for measurements doesn't work, would you suggest the work around to be to remove the 'TabbedToolbarTransientBase' widget (in bold below) from the JSON file?

   

  {

   

          "moduleName": "TabbedToolbar",

   

          "moduleType": "geocortex.essentialsHtmlViewer.mapping.modules.toolbar.TabbedToolbarModule",

   

          "configuration": {

   

            "isEnabled": true,

   

            "transientElements": [

   

              {

   

                "stateName": "MeasureState",

   

                "widgetId": "TabbedToolbarTransientBase",

   

                "region": "MeasurementToolControlRegion",

   

                "items": [

   

                  {

   

                    "id": "MeasureSnappingToggle",

   

                    "type": "toggleButton",

   

                    "iconUri": "Resources/Images/Icons/Toolbar/snapping-24.png",

   

                    "toggleStateName": "SnappingState",

   

                    "toggleOn": {

   

                      "name": "@language-toolbar-snapping-enable",

   

                      "command": "ActivateSnapping",

   

                      "tooltip": "@language-toolbar-snapping-alt-enable"

   

                    },

   

                    "toggleOff": {

   

                      "name": "@language-toolbar-snapping-disable",

   

                      "command": "DeactivateSnapping",

   

                      "tooltip": "@language-toolbar-snapping-alt-disable"

   

                    }

   

                  },

   

                  {

   

                    "id": "MeasureSelectSnappingLayersButton",

   

                    "type": "button",

   

                    "iconUri": "Resources/Images/Icons/Toolbar/layers-snapping-24.png",

   

                    "command": "ActivateSelectLayersForSnapping",

   

                    "commandParameter": null,

   

                    "hideOnDisable": false,

   

                    "name": "@language-toolbar-snapping-select-layers",

   

                    "tooltip": "@language-toolbar-snapping-select-layers-tooltip"

   

                  }

   

                ]

   

              },

   

              {

   

                "stateName": "MeasureState",

   

                "widgetId": "MeasurementToolTransientToolbar",

   

                "region": "MeasurementToolControlRegion"

   

              },

   

  to make it look like this: { "moduleName": "TabbedToolbar", "moduleType": "geocortex.essentialsHtmlViewer.mapping.modules.toolbar.TabbedToolbarModule", "configuration": { "isEnabled": true, "transientElements": [ { "stateName": "MeasureState", "widgetId": "MeasurementToolTransientToolbar", "region": "MeasurementToolControlRegion" },

   

  That way it will still allow for snapping, just not for measurment.  And also allow users to change units of measurement.
