add entity with image on top of base shape

CesiumJS
1

Hi,

  1. explanation:

I try to create entities on the map with base shape (like hexagon, circle,…) and image on top of the shape.

I am currently used PinBuilder for entity creation, but i want to display it with different pin shape style.

Each entity should have different base shape with different image.

Is there a way to add the entity this way?

  1. code:

// cesium-map.directive.ts file

// current code - with PinBuilder

// its responsible to add new entity by its params

const entity = this.viewer.entities.add({

id,

description: type,

position: Cesium.Cartesian3.fromDegrees(long, lat, 0),

label: {

text: name,

font: ‘12px sans-serif’,

verticalOrigin: Cesium.VerticalOrigin.TOP,

distanceDisplayCondition: new Cesium.DistanceDisplayCondition(0, 80000)

},

// maybe there something else then billboard / PinBuilder that can used here?

billboard: {

image: new Cesium.PinBuilder().fromUrl(

options.cesiumIconUrl,

isSelected ? selectedColor : options.color,

30

),

verticalOrigin: Cesium.VerticalOrigin.BOTTOM

}

});

  1. Context:

The app should display entities from different types (base shapes), each entity have its specific image.

  1. system:

os: windows 10

browser: chrome 78

cesium: 1.55.0

angular: 5

Thanks, Yuval.
