The Draw widget allows you to draw basic graphics and text onto the map. It provides basic sketching and redlining functionality for the Advanced Viewer. It also displays some measurements for drawn features, such as lengths for lines, and areas and/or perimeters for polygons.

• Point
• Line
• Polyline
• Freehand Line
• Triangle
• Rectangle
• Circle
• Ellipse
• Polygon
• Freehand Polygon
• Text
