Hi!

Sorry for the delay here, I was on vacation when this was posted and it was missed.

When creating your triangle tool, make sure to use function syntax and not fat arrow syntax.

const TriangleCreateTool = function() { ... }

There is an error in our documentation where we use an arrow function here instead. We will fix this ASAP.

Thanks,
Logan
