[mapguide-users] Need to draw lines, points, possibly polygons to database

Hello,

I have polygons where text labels will not fit inside entirely. It is
important to the user that the text labels appear nicely and if they cannot
fit they would like to draw a line outside the polygon that points to it
with a text label attached.

My hope is that I can allow them to draw a line and point/polygon (for the
text label) directly in the AJAX Viewer and then save the data to an
existing layer in the database.

I see in the viewer api there are DigitizeLine(), DigitizePoint(), and
DigitizePolygon() functions but does anyone have any practical examples of
this? Is this type of functionality best served for AutoCAD/Map3D or can
this be easily achieved in Mapguide?

I'm working in C# .NET. 

thank you
