CreatePolygon(PolygonBuilderEx,SpatialReference) Method

In This Topic

Convenience method to create a new instance of the Polygon class.

Syntax

C#
Visual Basic (Declaration)

public static Polygon CreatePolygon( 
   PolygonBuilderEx polygonBuilderEx,
   SpatialReference spatialReference
)

Public Overloads Shared Function CreatePolygon( _
   ByVal polygonBuilderEx As PolygonBuilderEx, _
   Optional ByVal spatialReference As SpatialReference _
) As Polygon

Parameters

polygonBuilderEx: The builder to create the polygon.
spatialReference: (Optional) The SpatialReference. The default value is null. If the input spatial reference is null, then the spatial reference from the input builder is used.

Exceptions

Exception	Description
System.ArgumentNullException	polygonBuilderEx is null.

Example

Create_polygon_poly

//Create a polygon graphic with simple line and fill styles.

//Construct on the worker thread
await QueuedTask.Run(() =>
{
  //Build geometry
  List<Coordinate2D> plyCoords = new List<Coordinate2D>();
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1, 7));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2, 7));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2, 6.7));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(3, 6.7));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(3, 6.1));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1, 6.1));
  //At 2.x - Polygon poly = PolygonBuilder.CreatePolygon(plyCoords);
  Polygon poly = PolygonBuilderEx.CreatePolygon(plyCoords);

  //Set symbolology, create and add element to layout
  CIMStroke outline = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructStroke(ColorFactory.Instance.BlueRGB, 2.0, SimpleLineStyle.DashDotDot);
  CIMPolygonSymbol polySym = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructPolygonSymbol(ColorFactory.Instance.RedRGB, SimpleFillStyle.ForwardDiagonal, outline);
  //At 2.x - GraphicElement polyElm = LayoutElementFactory.Instance.CreatePolygonGraphicElement(layout, poly, polySym);
  //         polyElm.SetName("New Polygon"); 
  GraphicElement polyElm = ElementFactory.Instance.CreateGraphicElement(layout, poly, polySym, "New Polygon");
});

Create_lasso

//Create a graphic lasso element with simple line and fill styles.

//Construct on the worker thread
await QueuedTask.Run(() =>
{
  //Build geometry
  List<Coordinate2D> plyCoords = new List<Coordinate2D>();
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1, 1));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1.25, 2));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1.5, 1.1));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1.75, 2));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2, 1.1));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2.25, 2));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2.5, 1.1));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2.75, 2));
  plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(3, 1));
  //At 2.x - Polygon poly = PolygonBuilder.CreatePolygon(plyCoords);
  Polygon poly = PolygonBuilderEx.CreatePolygon(plyCoords);

  //Set symbolology, create and add element to layout
  CIMStroke outline = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructStroke(ColorFactory.Instance.BlackRGB, 2.0, SimpleLineStyle.Solid);
  CIMPolygonSymbol polySym = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructPolygonSymbol(ColorFactory.Instance.RedRGB, SimpleFillStyle.ForwardDiagonal, outline);
  //At 2.x - GraphicElement polyElm = LayoutElementFactory.Instance.CreatePolygonGraphicElement(layout, poly, polySym);
  //         polyElm.SetName("New Lasso"); 
  GraphicElement polyElm = ElementFactory.Instance.CreateGraphicElement(layout, poly, polySym, "New Lasso");
});

Create Lasso Polygon, Freehand Element

//Must be on QueuedTask.Run(() => { ...

List<Coordinate2D> plyCoords = new List<Coordinate2D>();
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1, 1));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1.25, 2));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1.5, 1.1));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1.75, 2));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2, 1.1));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2.25, 2));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2.5, 1.1));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2.75, 2));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(3, 1));
Polygon poly = PolygonBuilderEx.CreatePolygon(plyCoords);

//Set symbology, create and add element to layout
CIMStroke outline = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructStroke(
            ColorFactory.Instance.BlackRGB, 2.0, SimpleLineStyle.Solid);
CIMPolygonSymbol polySym = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructPolygonSymbol(
         ColorFactory.Instance.RedRGB, SimpleFillStyle.ForwardDiagonal, outline);

ElementFactory.Instance.CreateGraphicElement(
  container, poly, polySym, "New Lasso");

Create Polygon Element

//Must be on QueuedTask.Run(() => { ...

//Build geometry
List<Coordinate2D> plyCoords = new List<Coordinate2D>();
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1, 7));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2, 7));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(2, 6.7));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(3, 6.7));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(3, 6.1));
plyCoords.Add(new Coordinate2D(1, 6.1));
Polygon poly = PolygonBuilderEx.CreatePolygon(plyCoords);

//Set symbology, create and add element to layout
CIMStroke outline = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructStroke(
  ColorFactory.Instance.BlueRGB, 2.0, SimpleLineStyle.DashDotDot);
CIMPolygonSymbol polySym = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructPolygonSymbol(
  ColorFactory.Instance.RedRGB, SimpleFillStyle.ForwardDiagonal, outline);

ElementFactory.Instance.CreateGraphicElement(
  container, poly, polySym, "New Polygon", false);
