SMK / Configuration / Tools

Select Tool

Add a button to the toolbar, that shows a panel containing the current selection set. When this tool is enabled, the "identify" tool tool has an additional action available for features. The feature can be copied to the selection, so it appears in this panel.

This is default configuration for the Select tool (click on a property name for more information):

{ "tools": [ {
    "type":      "select",
    "title":     "Selected Features",
    "showTitle": false,
    "showPanel": true,
    "showHeader": true,
    "enabled":   false,
    "icon":      "select_all",
    "order":     6,
    "position":  [ "list-menu", "toolbar" ],
    "command":   {
        "navigator":     true,
        "zoom":          true,
        "select":        true,
        "attributeMode": false,
        "clear":         true,
        "remove":        true,
    },

Title Property

"title": String

The title of this tool. Tools that display a panel will use this as the title of the panel. The toolbar button for this tool will use this as the tooltip. Tools have a default title, and setting this property will override the default title with one of the author’s choosing.

Enabled Property

"enabled": Boolean

If true then the tool will be available when the map starts. If false, then the tool will not be available.

Icon Property

If the tool adds a button to a toolbar, this property gives the name of the icon to display on the button. The icon set used is the Material Design Icons.

Order Property

Position Property

"position": String

Some tools show a button that activates the tool, and that button must be positioned in one of the tool button containers. The tool button containers are: toolbar, list-menu, and shortcut-menu. This property’s value is the name of the container, or null to prevent button from appearing. The tool button container must itself be enabled.

One of the modes possible when attributeView == "default" is one that uses the feature template defined for the layer. This mode is the most preferred one if possible, but it is not possible to force attributeView to always use it.
