Draw Polygon

To draw a polygon, follow the steps given below:

  1. Click or touch the Add icon on the upper right corner of the map to open the Add panel.
  2. Under the Create Annotation list, select Polygon . You can click on Cancel button to exit without drawing annotation.
  3. Click or tap on the map once to start the first point.
  4. Click or tap at another point on the map to draw the polygon.
  5. Repeat the above step for as many points that you wish to add.
  6. Click or tap twice to add the last point.
    The polygon annotation is drawn on the map and is also listed with default name in the Map Legend panel under the Annotations heading.
    Note: If you click or tap the map and drag the finger whilst drawing you can pan the map. This is useful if you want to carry on drawing past the edge of the current map view. A polygon must have at least 3 points to be added to the map.
    Note: You can also draw free hand polygon by pressing Shift key while drawing the Polygon annotation on the map.
