Basic FeatureLayer question

KennMurphy

I am trying to use a FeatureLayer to search for meters in our service territory. The searching works great, but I can't seem to get it to change the view so that all the returned features are in view. I was attempting to do it as follows, but it isn't working. The meters are in a layer that is visible only at a certain zoom level and I made sure to be zoomed in to the appropriate level before conducting the search.

private function updateEndFunction(event:Event):void
{
    var graphicsExtent:Extent = GraphicUtil.getGraphicsExtent(fLayer.selectedFeatures);
    OutageMap.extent = graphicsExtent;
}

I've decided to change tactics. I'm using a QueryTask with a GraphicsLayer instead of a FeatureLayer. I took the source code from the Zoom to query result example and it works great for selecting meters. It doesn't change the extent when there is only one meter selected, but since this is going to be an outage map I don't think it's an issue (at least not yet).

Thanks for all the help! 🙂
