Why is Silverlight Ignoring my Feature Symbol

AaronEdwards1

My application worked perfectly a few months ago.  Since then the client has upgraded to the latest version of ArcGIS Server (10.something, I believe). 

Now, all of a sudden, the map ignores my Feature Symbols and uses instead the symbology associated with the map in Arc, presumably as specified by the REST service.

That would be fine, except I have some cool mouse-over animations that are now being ignored.

Anyone else encounter this?

Thanks.

You are right. From ArcGIS server 10, the feature layer rest end point provides symbology informations and this info is used as default renderer.

There are 2 possible workarounds:
- on event featurelayer_initialized, you reset the renderer to null so your featuresymbol will be used,
- instead of setting a feature symbol, you can set a 'SimpleRenderer' using that feature symbol. This simple renderer won't be overwritten by the default renderer.
