textTool will not activate

[Jim Jacobs]

Hi,

I am able to activate other tools like orthogonalLine and panTool, but the following does not activate the text tool:

            case 'textTool':
                diagram._clearSelection();
                diagram.deactivateTool();
                diagram.activateTool("textTool");
                break;

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Jim

Hi Jim

Sorry for the delay

We have created a simple sample which meets your requirement and it is available in the below link for download. Please see the code snippet below.

Code snippet:

<input type="button" value="textTool" onclick="texttool()" />

$(window).load(function () {

            $("#Diagram1").ejDiagram({

          //initializing drawingtools

                drawingTools: { textTool: ej.datavisualization.Diagram.TextTool(), }

            });

        });

        function texttool() {            

            var diagram = $("#Diagram1").ejDiagram("instance");

            diagram.activateTool("textTool");

        }
