Re: [mapguide-users] fusion - default tool selected?

[Andrew DeMerchant]

hmm.....so that would involve editing the Select widget and the ApplicationDefinition.xml - but in my case, since I'm using Studio / Maestro, there IS no ApplicationDefinition.xml file to edit, is there? . Surely there's got to be some way to do it just from that init function. Is there some link that you know of to get the API? Andrew Mike Adair wrote: Andrew, Testing that code snippet doesn't work for me because the activateWidget() method is only defined on the MapWidget. A more generic solution for this would be to add an <Activated>true</Activated> element for widgets in the ApplicationDefinition file.  Currently there is a <Disabled> property for widgets to disable widgets on startup, this would be something similar. Mike Andrew DeMerchant wrote: Would there be a way to do this more generically (ie without having to hard-code the main name)? Like, why does this work:     var mapWidget = Fusion.getWidgetById('Pan');     mapWidget.activateWidget(Fusion.getWidgetsByType('Pan')[0]); The link to the fusion api on the trac site doesn't exist - so I don't really see a place to check this stuff.... Andrew Mike Adair wrote: In your Fusion init method (i.e. a function registered to the FUSION_INITIALIZED event), you can activate a widget like so:    var mapWidget = Fusion.getMapById('mainMap');    //enable pan widget    mapWidget.activateWidget(Fusion.getWidgetsByType('Pan')[0]); getWidgetsByType returns an array of widgets so the [0] in the above statement just selects the first instance of the Pan widget. Mike Andrew DeMerchant wrote: Is there a way to make the Select tool selected by default in fusion? What I mean is, if I load a Fusion map there is no tool selected. So the user can click and click all they want, but nothing will ever happen until they pick the Select tool (or some other tool). In AJAX and DWF, the Select tool is selected by default - so as soon as the map loads, you can start clicking on the map to see stuff....Is there an easy way to do that in Fusion? Is it a matter of editing the templates somehow?
