Identify Widget for FlexViewer 2.1

RobertScheitlin__GISP

All,

I have been waiting for the Final release of the FlexViewer 2.1 before I started to push out some widgets I have been working on.

Here is my Identify Widget for Flex Viewer 2.1. I have tested to ensure proper functioning with FlexViewer 2.1 and am now releasing it to you since the API Team did not get one into the FlexViewer.

Here is the link:

http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=39cf66d58c234279ba728c50461a1a89

More FlexViewer 2.1 widgets to come stay tuned...

Robert - I'm trying to incorporate the identify the widget into a viewer that also has the GeoPortal Search widget. The geoportal widget allows us to add WMS layers to the map. When I try to do an idnetify on one of the WMS layers that has been added, I get an error "Error:[IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032:Stream Error. URL: http://[wmsserverurl]/identify"]

My guess is that wms layers are not supported by the identify widget. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Barb Patterson

Hi Barb,

I'm interested in incorporating WMS layers in SFV and you says that Geoportal Search widget allows that. Could you (or somebody) send me a link to this widget (I haven't found it in Esri resource center).

Thanks,
Pedro.

Robert,

I am trying to create a identify attachments widget and failing miserably. Do you have any ideas?

Stuart,

I am considering attachments for a future release, I just don't have the time to dedicate to it right now.

Using FlexViewer 2.1 and Identify Widget 2.1.6

I have Identify Widget installed and my map contains multiple feature layers. The Identify Widget works great on the /0 feature layer, but I can't get it to work on any other layers. My IdentifyWidget.xml file is set to <layers onlythese="true"> and I have listed the /0 layer and one additional feature layer (for the time being.) I have triple checked to ensure the layer name is spelled correctly in config.xml and IdentifyWidget.xml. All layers are visible in ArcMap and on the flex page.

Any ideas why I can only get one layer to identify?

Thanks for any help.

Hi Robert,
i still have problems with multiple results when i use the identify tool on group layers and layer. If i uncheck the layer's checkbox and then re-check it, it works perfectly, the identify tool returns only one entry.

Runing it in debug mode,
identifyWideg.mxml at line 293, i saw that dynamicLayer.visibleLayers.source contains group layer's id at the initialization and not after having uncheck/check the layer's check box, how to correct this ?

Second minor problem :
around line 423 if the same field is used for Linkfield and Fieldicon the linkicon variable is not set.
this line :

linkicon = identLinkIconPre + value + identLinkIconSuffix;

should be put in a separate if test instead of an esleif test.
Regards.
Erwan

Jim,

Can you post your IdentifyWidget.xml?

JimWelsh

In the interest of troubleshooting I have tried to keep the number of entries down, so there are only two in there now. The top entry works.

Thanks for looking into this.

Jim,

The first thing I would do is either rename your layer or try another layer for this testing the "Aggravated Assault / Battery" forward slash is likely going to cause an issue in the code.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Erwan,

are the map services that you are using that are having the duplicated results public services that I can use in my testing?

ErwanCaradec

No sorry Robert,
my ArcGIS server (still in 9.3.1) is on a private network wich not having any internet connection 😕

This modification works for me, i'm testing if the visible layer to identify not having subLayers :
(Replace line 293 with this code) :

// 17/11/2010 #1 erwan.caradec
// remove duplicate results for group of layers       
//line 293       identifyParams.layerIds = dynamicLayer.visibleLayers.source;
       identifyParams.layerIds = new Array();
       for (var j:Number = 0; j < dynamicLayer.visibleLayers.source.length; j++)
       {
        if (!dynamicLayer.layerInfos[dynamicLayer.visibleLayers.source].subLayerIds)
        {
         identifyParams.layerIds.push(dynamicLayer.visibleLayers.source);
        }
       }
// end of modification

regards,
Erwan

Andrea,

Ok lets try this again then.. Send me your config.xml and your IdentifyWidget.xml.

I have on my sample site for the identify widget a layer of type feature that is working just fine...

Andrea,

Ok I found my error and have it fixed in Version 2.1.7

Also you need to use this config.xml. There was an error in yours.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Erwan,

Thanks for the code assist. I have included your updates in the 2.1.7 version.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Erwan,

Do you still have your LinkedIn account?

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Andrea,

Just for testing try removing all of the basemap layers you have specified and clear your browsers cache and then try measuring. The one thing I saw was that your aerials map service is using a WKT for the spatial reference and not a WKID like the rest of your map services.

Robert,
i've just create one here

Robert,

Thanks again for your help. I removed the slash from the layer in my code and in ArcMap (before republishing). It still does not work. I can't seem to get any layer other than /0 to work with identify, even though they are from the same service.

JimWelsh

Robert,
Since my last post I discovered you posted 2.1.7. The new version solved my problem and all layers work. Thank you for all of the time you spend in developing widgets and providing support for everyone on the forum.

hi,
CAN I ask a silly question, where is the config.xml file you mentioned, I can't find it.
thanks.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Roger,

Almost every widget has an xml configuration file that it uses. By widget development convention the file is named the same as the widget itself, so the file you are looking for is called IdentifyWidget.xml

xintan

Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply.
But It seems the widget is not working on my polygon layer.
See attachment.

Andrea,

I don't have any plans for video capability in the identify widget. If you are dealing with WMV (windows Media Video) than you can download the Windows Media Encoder (free) and encode your video for streaming from your standard web server just like you did for your pdfs (meaning hosting them on your server).

Hi, Thanks for your great widget.

However I'm having trouble getting it to identify specified layers. It says 'Loading...' but that stops and shows no results. Same problem with polygons, lines and points.
Having <layers onlythese="false"> has no problems,
I'm using version 2.1.7

This is my config.xml :

           <layer label="Cadastre" type="dynamic" visible="true"          
  url="http://41e2821/arcgis/rest/services/612637000_GEHU/Cadastre_MRWA_MGA50_201011/MapServer/"/>

And this is my IdentifyWidget.xml :

<configuration>
 <identifylayeroption>visible</identifylayeroption>
 <identifytolerance>5</identifytolerance>
 <defaultzoomscale>5000</defaultzoomscale>
 <keepidentifyactive>true</keepidentifyactive>
 <labels>
  <zoom2message>Click to Zoom to Point</zoom2message>
  <identifylabel>Identify</identifylabel>
  <resultslabel>Results</resultslabel>
  <descriptionlabel>Use the identify tool to identify features on the map:</descriptionlabel>
  <pointlabel>Identify</pointlabel>
  <clearlabel>Clear</clearlabel>
  <loadinglabel>Loading...</loadinglabel>
  <selectionlabel>Features Identified:</selectionlabel>
 </labels>
 <layers onlythese="true">
  <layer>
   <name>Cadastre</name>
   <fields>LEGAL_AREA</fields>
   <linkfield></linkfield>
   <linkprefix></linkprefix>
   <linksuffix></linksuffix>
   <iconfield></iconfield>
   <iconprefix></iconprefix>
   <iconsuffix></iconsuffix>
   <zoomscale>15000</zoomscale>
   <forcescale>true</forcescale>
  </layer>

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Trav351,

I would begin by removing the last slash from your mapservice in your config.xml.

I have not had anyone report this issue so that is the only thing that looks wrong with your configuration.

<layer label="Cadastre" type="dynamic" visible="true"          
  url="http://41e2821/arcgis/rest/services/612637000_GEHU/Cadastre_MRWA_MGA50_201011/MapServer/"/>

TravisGoad

Hi thanks for looking at this for me,

I removed the slash and it hasn't made any difference unfortunately.

The service is only a MapService, is that ok?

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Travis,

So does Cadastre get identified when you set

<layers onlythese="false">

?

Is LEGAL_AREA the field alias? The identify tool requires you to specify the fields using their field alias.

Hi Robert thanks again for your reply,

Yes the field name and alias are identical.

All the Cadastre fields are displayed when set to

<layers onlythese="false">

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Travis,

What geometry type is the Cadastre map service layer? For testing can you add another field to your fields element, like LEGAL_AREA,SOME_OTHER_FIELD? This issue is strange and I have not run up against it before.

Hello,

Has anyone utilized this function in a flex project that is not based on the FlexViewer 2.1?

I have an existing flex project where it seems this would save me a lot of work if I can use it without dependencies on the FlexViewer.

Thank you to all!

Sincerely,

Amy
