Measure
Distance and area measurement, with an on-map panel for your end-users. You decide which modes exist, which units are offered, and how results are displayed.
Parameters
Section titled “Parameters”| Parameter | What it does |
|---|---|
| Modes | Enable Distance, Area, or both. Both enabled: end-users switch with tabs. One enabled: the tabs disappear, that mode applies, and the panel title says what is measured. |
| Default mode | Which mode the panel opens in (shown only when both modes are enabled). |
| Units: default unit | The unit measurements start in, per mode. |
| Units: units offered | The units end-users may pick from, per mode. Offer a single unit and the selector disappears; that unit simply applies. |
| On-map labels | Draws each segment length along the lines and the area total in the middle of polygons. |
| Decimal places | How many decimals end-users see, in the panel and in the labels. |
| Position | The map corner the widget lives in. The panel always unfolds toward the inside of the map. |
