TemplatePicker adds two features

Question

Has anyone experienced this problem with the TemplatePicker control?:  I have discovered that when I try to add a new feature and also try to update some of the attributes for that feature (then click apply), it actually adds two records in the database at the same exact point.

I have been troubleshooting this with Fiddler and this appears to be the sequence of events:
1. Click on the feature in the template picker pallette
2. Click a point on the map (at this point in Fiddler I see a call to my FeatureService with ../FeatureServer/0/ApplyEdits)
3. Then the dialog box opens on the map so I can edit the attributes for the feature I just placed on the map.  When I click 'apply' to persist the attribute values I see another call to my feature service ../FeatureServer/0/ApplyEdits.
4. now when I go to review the results in the database I see one record with only an objectID, and a second record with the next sequential ObjectID plus all the attribute values I just entered.

For example:
ObjectID: 6849585
Company:
CU:

ObjectID: 6849586
Company: WPL
CU: X4000

I have been able to repeat scenario this several times.  Has anyone else experienced this same problem?

Hi Jennifer,  Thanks.  Turning the AutoSave="False" on the feature layer seemed to fix the problem.  We will go with that.

But I do have another question.  I am a little new to the GIS area in our company... can you tell me how I could begin troubleshooting why I am experiencing a 17 second delay on the updates to our feature layer?

Thanks again.  --Rick

Hi Rick, Thank you for reporting this. It was very difficult to reproduce the issue with the sampleservers until we force to introduce a delay in code. We are trying to get this bug fixed.

If you have AutoSave=True (default), please try AutoSave=False so that edit to the same feature are submitted to the server at the same time.

Hi Jennifer, When I set the AutoSave to False, it does nothing. I do not see any /applyEdits. Would it be helpful to send you the Fiddler session (.saz) file? I thought about posting it here, but I wasn't so sure that was a good idea. I'm not sure what information I might be exposing. Sorry about not including the code earlier. I am following the ESRI samples very closely. But here is my xaml and xaml.cs if you want to take a look. private void MyTemplatePicker_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { string[] myLayerIDs = { "Poles" }; MyTemplatePicker.LayerIDs = myLayerIDs; }
