i want to listen editing tools like , Polygon , LineTool ….. . User can draw shapes free by mouse , but we need to enter coordinates by hand relative to first point . for example while editing via polygon tool
relative to previous point : first point 11 (x0), 12 (y0) ( exact point location ) second point : x0 + 100 , y0 + 50 entering coord relative by angle : first point 11 (x0), 12 (y0) ( exact point location ) second point : sin 30 * x0 + cos 30 * y0
I'm developing a view to enter these coords , if user enters coords and types enter, entered coords will be added currently editing shape. that s why i want to known when a edit tool enabled , so that i can enable or disable text boxes to enter coordinates and can show view if necessary . i ll need a few more views for my application depends on existing and custom tools .
i ve found a workaround , when a modal tool activates , it runs a command so map change event fires :).

Can I ask why you want to do this? It will help me figure out how we should fix it … normally the tools are "driving" the application (you know registering listeners, changing the cursor, proving a context menu, taking over the selection the map advertises, etc…)
if we are forced to listen to the tools enable and disable then perhaps you have discovered a new responsibility for the tools?
So yes please tell me more :-)
If ToolLifecycleListener is expected to be called then we should be able to make a fix; perhaps you could check in ToolManager with a debugger and spot where we should fire the event from?

I've read my previous mail again and its slipshod, apoligies.
I want to catch whenever active modal tool changes , smth like
ApplicationGIS.getToolManager().addChangeListener(IToolChangeListener); IToolChangeListener { activeToolChanged(Event evt) ; }
Looks like there is no implementation like this. so i tried to listen specific tools lifecycle ;
ApplicationGIS.getToolManager().findTool("......polygonEdit").addListener(new ToolLifecycleListener(){
public void changed(ToolLifecycleEvent event) { // TODO Auto-generated method stub bla bla bla } })
but changed method is not being called when edit tool activated or deactivated.
can you give me an advice plz :)

I ve got a problem with modal tools :). i want to listen modal tool selection change and activate my viewport based selection of the tool. For example i ll make myviewpart only polygon tool and line tool selected . i tried several methods to do ;
1) Listening Balackboard : its working to listen edit state , i can catch starting editing but can't handle switching to another tool like zoom 2) listening tool lifecycle : added IToolLifecycleListener , workbench didn't call change event after i clicked tool.
can you give me an advice ?
