Weave uses the term “Redline” to refer to a graphic added to a Weave client map display. Redlines may be points , lines, polygons, circles, squares, rectangles or text, and once added to the display, they may be readily edited or deleted.

Redlines differ from Weave entity features because they are not associated with features contained in the entity’s layer; Rather they can be thought of as floating graphics, displayed atop underlying feature layers.

Available Tools

Redline Tools are used to create and manipulate Redlines on a map display. Such tools are available to the user from the Redline Toolbar. The Redline toolbar may be declared with the below XML :

Code Block
<item action="com.cohga.client.actions.redline"/>

The above specification is the simplest specification for the Redline Toolbar. When declared in this way a default set of Redline tools are included on the Toolbar. These default tools are denoted as Enabled in the below table.
To add tools that are not enabled by default, new tool elements are added to to the com.cohga.client.actions.redline item, using the Id property of the tool, e.g :

Code Block
<item action="com.cohga.client.actions.redline">
	<tool>entity</tool>
	<tool>buffer</tool>
	<tool>bufferAll</tool>
	<tool>bufferSelected</tool>
</item>

The Delete, Delete All and Load items can have an optional warning parameter to prompt a user before deleting/loading redlines. This parameter is specified as an XML attribute, e.g :

Code Block
<item action="com.cohga.client.actions.redline">
	<item action="weave.redline.delete" warning="true"/>
	<item action="weave.redline.deleteall" warning="true"/>
	<item action="weave.redline.load" warning="true" />
	...
</item>

Customise available markers

You can replace the content of the marker menu to change the available markers, beyond the default ref, green and blue ones.
