supplying the tool name as the undo string. supplyToolSettingsProperties(): undefined | DialogItem[] MeasureElementTool Used to supply list of properties that can be used to generate ToolSettings. syncToolSettingsProperties(syncData: DialogPropertySyncItem[]): void MeasureElementTool Called by tool to synchronize the UI with property changes made by tool. testDecorationHit(_id: string): boolean MeasureElementTool Called to support operations on pickable decorations, like snapping. updateTotals(selectionSetResult?: MassPropertiesResponseProps): Promise<void> Protected MeasureElementTool register(namespace?: I18NNamespace, i18n?: I18N): void Static MeasureElementTool Register this Tool class with the ToolRegistry. Properties Name Type Description iconSpec Static string The icon for this Tool. toolId Static string The unique string that identifies this tool. Inherited properties Name Type Inherited from Description description Accessor ReadOnly string MeasureElementTool Get the localized description string from this Tool's class description Accessor StaticReadOnly string MeasureElementTool Get the localized description for this Tool class. This returns the value of "tools." + this.toolId + ".description" fromits registered Namespace (e.g. "en/MyApp.json"). If that key is not in the localization namespace,MeasureElementTool.flyover is returned. englishKeyin Accessor StaticReadOnly string MeasureElementTool Get the English keyin string for this Tool class. This returns the value of "tools." + this.toolId + ".keyin" fromits registered Namespace (e.g. "en/MyApp.json"). flyover Accessor ReadOnly string MeasureElementTool Get the localized flyover string from this Tool's class flyover Accessor StaticReadOnly string MeasureElementTool Get the localized flyover for this Tool class. This returns the value of "tools." + this.toolId + ".flyover" fromits registered Namespace (e.g. "en/MyApp.json"). If that key is not in the localization namespace,MeasureElementTool.keyin is returned. hidden Static boolean MeasureElementTool If true, this Tool will not appear in the list from ToolRegistry.getToolList. i18n Static I18N MeasureElementTool The internationalization services instance used to translate strings from the namespace. iconSpec Accessor ReadOnly string MeasureElementTool Get the iconSpec from this Tool's class. iModel Accessor ReadOnly IModelConnection MeasureElementTool Get the iModel on which this tool operates. isControlDown Accessor ReadOnly boolean MeasureElementTool Convenience method to check whether control key is currently down without needing a button event. isDynamicsStarted Accessor ReadOnly boolean MeasureElementTool Call to find out if dynamics are currently active. keyin Accessor ReadOnly string MeasureElementTool Get the localized keyin string from this Tool's class keyin Accessor StaticReadOnly string MeasureElementTool Get the localized keyin string for this Tool class. This returns the value of "tools." + this.toolId + ".keyin" fromits registered Namespace (e.g. "en/MyApp.json"). maxArgs Accessor StaticReadOnly undefined | number MeasureElementTool The maximum number of arguments allowed by MeasureElementTool.parseAndRun, or undefined if there is no maximum.If subclasses override MeasureElementTool.parseAndRun, they should also override this method to indicate the maximumnumber of arguments their implementation expects. minArgs Accessor StaticReadOnly number MeasureElementTool The minimum number of arguments allowed by MeasureElementTool.parseAndRun. If subclasses override MeasureElementTool.parseAndRun, they should alsooverride this method to indicate the minimum number of arguments their implementation expects. UI controls can usethis information to ensure the tool has enough information to execute. namespace Static I18NNamespace MeasureElementTool The I18NNamespace that provides localized strings for this Tool. receivedDownEvent boolean MeasureElementTool Used to avoid sending tools up events for which they did not receive the down event. targetIsLocked boolean MeasureElementTool targetModelId Accessor undefined | string MeasureElementTool targetView undefined | Viewport MeasureElementTool The viewport within which the tool operates. toolId Accessor ReadOnly string MeasureElementTool Get the toolId string for this Tool class. This string is used to identify the Tool in the ToolRegistry and is used to localizethe keyin, description, etc. from the current locale.
