Help with basemap/map server please

Question

I have just started working with the ArcGIS Viewer for Flex and would greatly appreciate some help with an issue I am having. I am not sure of the terminology, but here goes. I found a basemap/map server for New Zealand topo maps at this address: http://services.arcgisonline.co.nz/ArcGIS/rest/services/LINZ/geotiffs/MapServer I added this service to my main config file using the following code: When I select the NZ Topo basemap from my map switcher, the map is entirely gray. I would really appreciate any help fixing this issue. Thanks McCain

The tiles for the NZ map service has been created in a different projection. You can see this at http://services.arcgisonline.co.nz/ArcGIS/rest/services/LINZ/geotiffs/MapServer where it says "Spatial Reference: 2193". The flex viewer does not re-project cached services. You have two options, the best one is to just use services in that projection, for example: The other solution is to request a dynamicly created map from the LINZ service. This will not look as good, nor perform as well: (make sure that the NZ service is not listed first, in which case the map will use the LINZ projection and the tiled from ArcGIS Online services will not work)
