Enhanced-Search-Widget-for-FlexViewer Part II

RobertScheitlin__GISP

All,

I am pleased to announce the next release of my eSearch Widget.

http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=5d4995ccdb99429185dfd8d8fb2a513e

Version 2.5.1.7 - 4/19/2012
* Added ability to search (flat/standalone/no geometry) tables.
* This time all Zooming uses the same scaling (popup, datagrid, widget results, zoom to all).
* Added Relates icon/button to datagrids so that you can click on it in the datagrid to
open relates choice dialog.
* Move all skins to a skins package for cleaner organization.
* Links that are not associated with a field now work.
* Ability to disable the relates tab in the fixed widget is now configurable.

Ger Pha,

Currently, No but I will add it to the list of enhancements.

Robert,

As you suggested I'm re-posting my question in the forum.

I'm having an issue with the search, either text or search, where only a single result is returned. If I run the standard viewer search widget against the same data I get multiple results (as I would expect). Can you give me any hints to what I'm doing wrong. The following is taken from the widget XML file (the balance of the file I have not changed).

<layers>
<layer>
<token/>
<definitionexpression></definitionexpression>
<enableexport>true</enableexport>
<enableprintgrid>true</enableprintgrid>
<name>Calls for Service</name>
<url>http://<servername>/ArcGIS/rest/services/layers/CAD90Day/MapServer/24</url>
<expressions>
<expression alias="Signal" textsearchlabel="Signal:">
<values>
<value prompt="Example: 04" isvaluerequired="true">Signal like '%[value]%'</value>
</values>
</expression>
</expressions>
<graphicalsearchlabel>Use one of the graphical search tools to select Calls for Service</graphicalsearchlabel>
<spatialsearchlayer>true</spatialsearchlayer>
<titlefield>Signal_Desc</titlefield>
<fields all="false">
<field name="Signal_Desc" alias="Signal" gridfield="true" visible="true"/>
<field name="Signal" alias="Signal Code" gridfield="true" visible="true"/>

</fields>
<links>
<link alias="More Info" diablelinksifnull="true">

</link>
</links>
<zoomscale>4000</zoomscale>

<simplefillsymbol color="0x0000ff" alpha="0.5">

</simplefillsymbol>
</symbology>
</layer></layers>

Thanks again John

RobertScheitlin__GISP

John,

Nothing jumps out as being wrong. I would start by removing the links stuff and limit your fields to the Signal_Desc and Signal and wee what happens.

JohnPeabody

I'll give that a try

Thanks

John

All,

New version available:

Version 3.1.5 - 1/22/2013
* Fixed bug when user does not have ANY layer setup for spatial search.
* Fixed more layer symbology issues.
* Added configuration options for selecting buffer units and distance from xml.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Slade,

See if version 3.1.5 fixes your symbology issue.

RhettZufelt

Robert,

The fixed DG seems to honor the order of the <fields> in the fixed DG. however, if one of them is a hyperlinkgridfield="true", it always gets appended to the end of the DG (last column).

Would it be a simple mod to have that show up as the first column instead of the last?

Thanks,

R_

Hi Robert-
I updated the eSearch widget to 3.1.5 a few days ago and now the Add To Selection and Remove From Selection options in the widget do not work properly. If a selection is made and the user clicks to "add to current selection", the widget behaves as if it's doing a new selection. Same if I select the option to "Remove from current selection". The widget acts as if I wanted to make a new selection, instead of removing a feature from the existing selected features.

I have made edits to the mxml to reflect functionality requests of my boss and I wonder if something I did is causing the problem - I just can't see how it would be interfering with the Add To/Remove From widget functions. I'm hoping you can offer some insight. I've attached my edited mxml, and all my edits are noted by comment blocks in the far left margin to differentiate them from your comments in the code.

thanks,
Michelle

Michelle,

Looks like 3.1.5 has some major issue. My only recomendation at this point is to downgrade to 3.1.4. I am in the middle of some other widget updates and am not sure when I will get back to the eSearch.

RhettZufelt

Was testing the add to/remove from and have some input that might help.

Noticed that the graphical search is working as Michelle described, creates a new selection every time.

However, the text search is working "mostly". I can select with a text search, then add to/remove from it and it will add/remove the new items to the datagrid, results, but will NOT add it to the fixed DG...

In case this helps narrow it down,

Okay - that's easy enough to do. Thanks for getting back to me!

RhettZufelt

More on this, not sure if it's my syntax, or an issue that might help figure it out.

If I have a field setting as such:

<field name="PHOTO_ID" alias="PHOTO" hyperlinkgridfield="true" hyperlinkaliastext="Photo" hyperlinkgridicon="assets/images/i_camera.png"/>

I can click on the camera icon in the results window and it will open the hyperlinked photo in a new web browser. However, if I click on the camera icon in either the fixed or float DG, I get the following error, THEN it will still open the image in a new browser once I dismiss the error.

TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.
 at widgets.eSearch::eSearchWidget/clickSearchRelateResult()
 at widgets.eSearch::SearchWidgetFloatDG/clickRow()

 at spark.components::Grid/dispatchGridEvent()
 at spark.components::Grid/dispatchGridClickEvents()
 at spark.components::Grid/grid_mouseDownDragUpHandler()
 at MethodInfo-5341()

However, if I set the field tag to this:

<field name="PHOTO_ID" alias="PHOTO" hyperlinkgridfield="true" hyperlinkaliastext="Photo" />

I don't get the icon in the grid, just the text, BUT, it will let me click on it and opens in new browser with no error.

So to summarize, it doesn't appear as if the hyperlinkgridicon is working correctly from either of the datagrids, only the results window.

PS, can repeat with 3.1.2, 3.1.4, and 3.1.5 - no others tested 🙂

SladeBridges

Slade,

I am still struggling with why you are experiencing this issue. I have had no other reports of any issue close to this. Can you try and add the new symbology tag to your layers?
            <symbology>
                <picturemarkersymbol url="assets/images/i_search.png" height="30" width="30" xoffset="0" yoffset="0" />
            </symbology>

Robert,
does this tag need to be added to every layer? Can it be added in the symbols tag? I have a <symbols> tag not a <symbology> tag, this may be the issue.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Slade,

Actually hang tight as I might have found the issue and it will be addressed in 3.1.6

RobertScheitlin__GISP

All,

There is a new version available:

Version 3.1.6 - 1/25/2013
* Fixed major bug introduced in 3.1.5 with adding and removing form selections
* Fixed bug, when clicking on a popup the datagrid opens.
* Fixed bug when using a hyperlink field in the datagrid with a hyperlinkgridicon specified and error occurs.

This widget is exactly what I'm looking for, thank you. I added the "For_AppBuilder3.1" archive to the ArcGIS Viewer for flex 3.1 through the Manager Custom Widgets page. I modified one of the layers with my own service url and field name and removed all the other layers just for testing. I continue to get the following error when I run the widget. Does anyone have any idea what my problem could be ? I'm pretty new at flex.

Chris,

It is hard to tell, you might have removed something that is needed in the eSearchWidget.xml file. Can you search your PC for the eSearchWidget.xml file and zip it and attach it for review?

AndyCowx1

Robert,

On face value, the problem I'm having seems quite simple but after speaking to ESRI Tech Support they told me not possible with the Out-Of-The-Box config.

I'm trying to use the Search Widget to allow the user to enter a value (x), I then want to query 2 separate layers using that value.

The slight kink is that on layer 1 I want to show all features where "field = x", on layer 2 I want to show all features where "field like x%"

I realize that I could add 2 Out-Of-The-Box search widgets but would like to avoid having to ask the users to enter the same data twice.

In short, one dialog with the user will filter two layers on the map.

Make sense ?

Thanks,

Andy

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Andy,

This thread is dealing with the Enhanced Search Widget and not the OTB Search Widget. But to answer your question what you are attempting can not be done with out writing code to handle the Query of two specific REST endpoints and then more code to handle displaying the results of both querys.

Robert,

That's what I figured. Was kinda hoping that the Enhanced Widget might offer that functionality.

No biggie.

Andy

RhettZufelt

Andy,

I know this isn't exactly what you are after, but the eSearchWidget will let you configure multiple expressions and values within it.

Would probably be cleaner to just have a dropdown on the eSearchWidget to pick the desired layer/search rather than two separate widgets.

Thanks Robert. I attached the xml file for your review.

Seems like you sent me the wrong file (right name and all), but this one is unaltered from the original that is included in the download and does not contain any of your changes.

Sorry about that. Here's one I modified. I removed all layers but one, added my attributes and removed the tables.

Thanks,

Hi,

I just upgraded to the FlexViewer 3.1 and installed the new eSearch widget 3.1.6. I'm hoping to use the non-fixed setup (as I have in the past), but I can't get the grid to show up at all. Here's my app using Robert's default config file (which doesn't show the grid either): http://maps.tnc.org/coredata_new/index.html?config=esearch.xml

And here's the app pointing to my own data (still no grid): http://maps.tnc.org/coredata_new/

Do I have something configured wrong, or did the widget switch to only working with the fixed setup?

thanks,

Jon

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Jon,

You simply forgot to change the <floatorfixed>fixed</floatorfixed> to float.

JonFisher

Jon,

You simply forgot to change the <floatorfixed>fixed</floatorfixed> to float.

That did it, thanks! I'm not sure how I missed that, I must be even more tired than I thought...

AaronMielke

Robert,
Am I missing something or is there not a compiled version of the Enhanced Search Widget version 3.1.6? Any chance you could post a compiled version.

Thanks,
Aaron

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Aaron,

Yes you are definitely missing something. On the download page you need to scroll down to the Code Attachment eSearch.zip Download

JosephBatsos

Robert thanks for sharing this fantastic widget. 🙂 I have one issue regarding the localization of the widget ui.

It seems that export2csvoptionlabel and export2txtoptionlabel do not correspond to the radio button labels. Only exportbtnlabel works.

Also i cannot find the tag for Print button.
I use version 3.1.7 / Flex Viewer 3.1

Thank you in advance!
