popup window in viewer 2.5

MattPohl

Hello everyone,

I am new to the world of flex and also to the viewer. I have had much success however getting things to work and have made some very useful applications, yet I am having difficulty getting popups to work correctly. In fact I can not get them to show up at all. I am using a tiled service, and have created a very simple popup xml just for testing purposes. I know that whatever I am doing wrong is probably simple, and actually I hope that is the case. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The following code is what I am using. Thanks

Matt


Main config file:

<operationallayers>
     <layer label="Attendance Areas" type="tiled" visible="true" alpha="0.5"
              popupconfig="popups/PopUp_AttendencArea.xml"
              url="http://arcgisserver/ArcGIS/rest/services/MoundsView/AttendanceAreas/MapServer"/>
</operationallayers>


Popup config file:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<configuration>
    <title>{NAME}</title>
     <fields>
        <field name="NAME"/>
     </fields>
</configuration>

Matt,

   First thing is you are posting to the wrong forum. When you have Flex Viewer and or Widget questions you need to post to the Flex Viewer forum:

http://forums.arcgis.com/forums/111-ArcGIS-Viewer-for-Flex

Next your error is simple you are defining a popup for the WHOLE tiled map service which you can not do you have to set the popup for a specific sublayer.

Documentation here:
http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapps/flexviewer/help/01m3/01m30000000p000000.htm

Child tag specific to layers of types dynamic and tiles<sublayer> supports the following attributes:

• id???The ID, usually a number, of the sublayer within the map service.
• popupconfig???URL to the .xml configuration file of the pop-up window. See Pop-up configuration files for more information. [Added in version 2.3]
•   definitionexpression???Limits the data to a subset of the available  features in the map service layer. It's similar to the definition query  for a layer in ArcMap.

It will look something like this:

            <layer label="San Francisco 3-1-1 Incidents 2" type="dynamic" visible="false" alpha="1.0"                    url="http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/SanFrancisco/311Incidents/MapServer"                    visiblelayers="0">                    <sublayer id="0" popupconfig="popups/PopUp_311.xml" />             </layer>
