Re: [mapguide-users] Adding marker on the fly with tooltip

[Kenneth, GEOGRAF A/S]

Have you tried putting single quotes around the text?
Like this: 'my nice label !!'

Hi Jackie,

I have one doubt. I was wondering, why i can't put special character in the
tool tip e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED] and the white space as well. any idea on how to 
solve
this?

Thank you

What I mean is that the xml fragment you specified does not constitute a

layer definition document.

Therefore there must be some kind of "outer" xml document that that
fragment would have be merged with to form a valid layer definition
document.

Looking at the php code (and I'm just grabbing thin air here). I'm
guessing $factory->CreateLayerDefinition() is where the outer xml document
comes from. So take a look at that function, as that is probably where you
insert your tooltip tag.

Hi Jacky,

Thanks for the reply.

I don't quite understand what you mean by outer xml. anyway, this is what
i did for drawing the marker. also I have attached 1 layer definition
file, templ file, and also the layerdefinition.php file (the file
consists the function in drawing the marker based on the xml file). I
hope you can help me out. And I am really appreciate that.

Thank you

$factory = new LayerDefinitionFactory();

        // Create a mark symbol

        $resourceId = 'Library://Migrated Files/Stars.SymbolLibrary';

        $testing = 'Test 123';

        $markSymbol = $factory->CreateMarkSymbol($resourceId, $symbolName,
$width, $height, $color);

        // Create a text symbol

        $text = "ID";
        $fontHeight="12";

        $legendLabel = 'trees';
        $filter = '';
        $pointRule = $factory->CreatePointRule($legendLabel,
        $filter, $textSymbol, $markSymbol);

        // Create a point type style.

        $pointTypeStyle = $factory->
        CreatepointTypeStyle($pointRule);

        // Create a scale range.

        $minScale = '0';

        $featureName = 'PointSchema:Points';
        $geometry = 'GEOM';
        $layerDefinition = $factory->
        CreateLayerDefinition($featureSourceName, $featureName,
        $geometry, $pointScaleRange);

Do you have an "outer" xml template that you are merging this with? If
so, that's the one where you'll have to place the <ToolTip> tag under.

Hi Jacky,

Anyway I can't find the geometry tag under the marksymbol.templ.
this is what i have in markersymbol.templ

<W2D>
                  <Unit>Points</Unit>
                  <SizeContext>DeviceUnits</SizeContext>
                  <SizeX>%s</SizeX>

<SizeY>%s</SizeY> <Rotation>0</Rotation>

                  <MaintainAspect>true</MaintainAspect>
                  <W2DSymbol>
                    <ResourceId>%s</ResourceId>
                    <LibraryItemName>%s</LibraryItemName>
                  </W2DSymbol>

<FillColor>%s</FillColor> <LineColor>FF000000</LineColor>

                  <TextColor>FF000000</TextColor>
                  <ToolTip>test 123</ToolTip>
                </W2D>


I did make some changes to the LayerDefinition-1.0.0.xsd and the error
message has gone. however,
i can't see the tool tip when i mouse over the marker.

any idea of this?
anyway i am still using mapguide opensource 1.1.0.
because the new version (1.2) the marker is not shown on the map.Have
mentioned about this issue in this forum, but so far I havent see any
solution for it yet.

Thank you

Did you put the tooltip tag in the right location? The <ToolTip> tag
usually follows the <Geometry> tag in a layer definition document.

Hi,

Can we modify the markersymbol.templ file to add <ToolTip></ToolTip>
tag into it?
I have try to add it but it returns me such error message.
