Re: [OpenMap Users] Extend statusbar information (info delegator) when drawing polygons?

Carsten,

I've recently made such changes to the InformationDelegator.

This delegator has two default information line holders. One is the
coordinate information line and the other is a default "map object"
information line.

I found that I needed three information lines to display secondary
information like you are describing. But I also needed to keep information
in the "coordinate" and "map object" information lines.

So, I overrode the "initWidgets" method in the InformationDelegator class as
I could not figure out how to add such a component otherwise.

In the initwidgets, I simply rebuilt the panel using the default information
line holders. Then I added my own. You have to add it to the panel
(obviously) and then all so to the array list of line holders using the
addInfoLine() method. I also created a constant to reference the "index" of
the new line holder. Then I fired an "InfoDisplayEvent" from my mouse mode
when appropriate. Like this...

InfoDisplayEvent event = new InfoDisplayEvent(this,
infoline,
MyInformationDelegator.MY_INFO_LINE);

infoDelegator.requestInfoLine(event);

I hope this helps.

-Adam
