Leaflet.draw

[nmccready]

Trying to get the Leaflet.draw controls to work correctly. I can get the controls to show up on the map, and I can detect when the "draw:created" event is triggered, but when the layer is added to the map, the edit functionality doesn't work. I am guessing this is because I am supposed to add the layer to the "drawnItems" featureGroup, but that doesn't seem available from the directive in my controller. Am I missing something? Is there a way to get the declared "drawnItems" value from the directive from my controller? I am sure this is user error on my part.

Thanks in advance.

As a workaround I had to create a L.Control.Draw in my controller, define options there and add a drawnItems in my scope.

var drawnItems = new L.FeatureGroup();
var options = {  edit: { featureGroup: drawnItems } };
var drawControl = new L.Control.Draw(options);
angular.extend($scope, controls: { custom: [drawControl] });

Then simply add the layer to drawnItems when you get the draw:created event.

I did they exact same thing but for some reason when I draw a circle for example I don't see it getting painted on the layer...see my ctrl code below. I placed the css files inside my index.html. I can't figure out why this isn't working. I do see that the layer gets added to drawitems but nothing shows on map. Any help would be appreciated.

var drawnItems = new L.FeatureGroup();

var options = {
    edit: { featureGroup: drawnItems
    },
    draw: {
        polygon: {
            shapeOptions: {
                color: 'purple'
            }
        },
        circle: {
            shapeOptions: {
                stroke: true,
                weight: 4,
                color: 'blue',
                opacity: 0.5,
                fill: true,
                fillColor: null, //same as color by default
                fillOpacity: 0.2,
                clickable: true
            }
        }
    },
    showRadius: true
};

var drawControl = new L.Control.Draw(options);

angular.extend($scope, {
    defaults: {
        scrollWheelZoom: false
    },
    london: {
        lat: 51.505,
        lng: -0.09,
        zoom: 8
    },
    controls: {
        custom: [drawControl]
    }
});

leafletData.getMap().then(function (map) {
    map.on('draw:created', function (e) {
        var type = e.layerType,
            layer = e.layer;

        if (type === 'circle') {
            console.log(JSON.stringify(layer.toGeoJSON()));
        }

        drawnItems.addLayer(layer);
    });
});

@Martijnvl Is it possible that you have missed adding the drawnItems to your map? I did it like this:

leafletData.getMap().then(function(map) {
    map.addLayer(drawnItems);
});

Now I can at least add new shapes to the map. But somehow I have some strange issues with the editing functionality. Sometimes I can edit, but after adding a new shape the editing button is suddenly disabled. Then, after adding another shape, editing is suddenly possible again. I haven't been able to track down the reason for this behaviour.

EDIT: I have further investigated my issues and it seems that every time I add a new shape, the editing toolbar is toggled. Does anybody have any ideas what could be causing this?
