Annotation other items not supported in Flex Viewer...any other options?

THayes2000

I have tested ArcGIS Server API for Flex 3.0 and the following are not supported:

- Annotation Feature Classes; they show up in the viewer as empty gray boxes.

- Symbol Rotation based on an Attribute Field; they will show up rotated in Web ADF, but not in Flex Viewer.

If a user/developer needs Annotation and Symbol Rotation, what are the other options (Silverlight? or...???), Web ADF supports these, but ESRI is doing away with Web ADF in 10.1?

Timothy,

It seems in the Application builder that if you choose to add an operational layer and point to a map services individual layer than it is added as a feature type and if you just choose to add the whole (MS) than it gets added as dynamic. Does that help?

Timothy,

When you say Annotation Featureclasses are not supported what are you basing this off of? I have about two dozen anno classes in one of my map services and they display fine using a dynamic layer type in flex viewer.

Dynamic Layer type? I heard of this, how do I set one up? I set my first map service up using the Flex Application Builder from the ESRI Site.

My error. I apologize. If you use dynamic layers then annotation and symbol rotation is recognized.
