Copy contents of drawings layer

Permanently deleted user

I am looking, if it is posible to copy contents of Drawings(Graphics Layer) to NewDrawing(Graphics Layer) and visa versa in HTML5 Viewer.

Graphics Layers 

 

     Layer1 :- Drawing

 

     Layer2:- NewDrawings

Is is posible to impliment using custom javascript in HTML5 or using workflow ?

I tried using GetGraphicsLayerContent  in workflow, but it does not work with mixed types(point, line , poly, text).

  Hi Srikanth,

   

  This probably isn't possible for the reason that Popat gave.  The GetGraphicsLayerContent activity is currently the only way to get obtain the contents of a graphics layer in a workflow.  Since the activity returns a featureset, it will fail if the graphics layer contains mixed geometry types.  To have it work in a way that accepts multiple geometry types, it would have to return something like a collection of featuresets instead.  If you'd like to see the activity changed in the future to accomodate this, I would recommend posting in the Ideas section (https://support.geocortex.com/GSCIdeas?c=09a6000000008RsAAI&filter=1&categ=all&sub-nav=ideas&main-nav=essentials&page=1) so that other users can vote for the idea as well.

   

  Thanks,

   

  Amanda

  You can filter you results to a specific geometry type (with parameter Geometry Type) and do multiple requests for different geometry types.

  Good catch Nico, thanks!  You could definitely use that method and get a featureset for each geometry type.  It slipped past me.

  I am trying to do the same thing.  I have my GeomtryType filter working, but now I want to copy each of these feature sets to a feature service.  Is there an activity for this withing Workflow Designer?

  Yes, AddFeatures, and for the Features parameter you can use (one of) you featuresets. I think you should use something like yourfeaturesetvariable.Features to get a list of graphics.

  Another question, I have exported my markup Text out as a point - but the attribute of the textstring doesn't come accross - does anyone know of a way to get this to be part of the data export?

  As far as I know this is not possible

   

  From the documentation (...) exports do not include text or drawing styles from the markup layer.
