ArcReaderControl map tools


Purpose
This sample demonstrates how to set the IARControl.CurrentTool property to the MapZoomIn, MapZoomOut, or MapPan tool to navigate around the map view or any of the data frames when the current view is a PageLayout.
 
The OnAfterScreenDraw event uses the IARMap.CanUndoExtent and CanRedoExtent properties to determine whether the IARMap.UndoExtent and RedoExtent methods can be used to undo or redo extent changes. The IARMap.SetExtent method is set to the result of the IARMap.GetFullExtent method to zoom to the full extent of the data in the map.

If the sample has associated data, you will find that the sample's zip file includes a "data" folder alongside the language folders. However, you will need to update the sample to point to the location of the data once you have extracted all the files.

  2. Enter a valid file path of a Published Map File (PMF) from ArcMap and load.
  3. Click the Map button to display the data view.
  4. Use the tools to navigate around the focus map.
