Enhanced Search Widget for FlexViewer 2.1

RobertScheitlin__GISP

All Here is my next widget in the FlexViewer 2.1 series

Special thanks to Erwan Caradec for contributing to this code.

The Enhanced Search Widget extends the standard search widget with a floating data grid and a new spatial query w/buffering.

Nestor,

You are going to have to give so specifics on this... Are you using all the fields of your data by using

<fields all="true">

Can you provide some screen shots? As far as the hyperlink being a url that is underlined that is the default in FlexViewer 2.1 now.

Sure thing, here is the code:
[HTML]<layer>
   <name>Parcel Name</name>
   <url>http://gissrv1/ArcGIS/rest/services/Cadastral/MapServer/3</url>
   <expression>OWNERNAME1 LIKE '%[value]%'</expression>
   <textsearchlabel>Search by Owner Name [Example: Smith Robert; Smith]:</textsearchlabel>
   <graphicalsearchlabel>Use one of the graphical search tools to select features</graphicalsearchlabel>
    <fields all="false">
    <field name="PARID" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="OWNERNAME1" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="OWNERNAME2" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="SITEADDR" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="PROPUSE" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="ACRES" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="EXEMPTION" gridfield="true"/>

    <field name="PRICE" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="TOTMRKTVAL" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="ASSESSVAL" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="LANDVAL" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="IMPRV_MRKT" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="TOTALVALUE" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="TOTTAXVAL" gridfield="true"/>
    <field name="PAPA" alias="PAPA Website Link" hyperlinkgridfield="true" hyperlinkaliastext="Click Here For PAPA Website"/>
   </fields>
   <titlefield>PARID</titlefield>
   <linkfield>PAPA</linkfield>
   <zoomscale>4800</zoomscale>
</layer>[/HTML]

If you notice in the screenshot of the popup, all the values are good down to Improvement Value, then Total Value is missing, the first Total Taxable value is from some other row and then there is the correct Total Taxable value last.

If I display more fields then I get more duplicates. Sometimes there are no duplicates, just the wrong value. Not consistant.

Ever see that before?

Nestor,

I can not explain this odd behavior but would ask that you test this using the default searchWidget and see if the results are the same. The one thing I will say is that the reason I created the enhanced Search Widget is because I wanted a way to get more results back about a parcel without having a huge info popup. So you might want to limit the info popup to a more limited amount of data and just have the grid display all the rest.

JohnGregorovic

Works great, I am using the compiled version and I've had no problems.

It works fine with the default search. I will do like you say and trim down the results for the info popup.

Thanks !!

Robert everything looks fine if i explicitly define an alias attribute on a hyperlink field e.g. alias="Link". Without this, the column name displayed on the grid is not the 'default' column alias and the hyperlinkaliastext is ignored. Hope this is helpful.

ErwanCaradec

Hi robert, this is really a nice job !
Much thanks for having merged my code to your wonderfull enhanced version. I'm currently testing it on my local Network.

I would have some suggestions :
- About Xander post for where clause of the spatial search, i'm 100% agree with you that where clause are for the advanced users. But a boolean parameter may coul'd be added in the config file for each layer to use or not the search text expression as where clause.
- like in your identifyWidget, coul'd you add hyperlink prefix/suffix and icon field/prefix/suffix ?
- for the frenchy users, coul'd you add a parameter for the csvSeparator because of the windows regional and language options 😉

Regards,
Erwan

I agree!

Nice work Robert.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Guys,

This is going to become a seriously complicated widget... But these enhancements are now on the list for next version.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

All,

The requested enhancements and some minor bug fixes are done in this latest version 2.1.3.

PLEASE PAY ATTENTION to the IMPORTANT configuration changes.pdf
in this new version as some changes to the structure of the eSearchWidget.xml have been made and copying and pasting your older version will cause errors.

deleted-user-RjoC4IOGTpoH

Another set of great enhancements Robert. Much appreciated.

I have the following code trying to get all the fields for a layer with no luck:

<layer>
   <name>Foreclosures September 2010</name>
   <url>http://gissrv1/ArcGIS/rest/services/StrategicPlanning/MapServer/1</url&gt;
   <expression useforspatial="true">gis.DBO.AddressMaster.PCN LIKE '%[value]%'</expression>
   <textsearchlabel>Search by PCN Number [Example: 73414404010850000]:</textsearchlabel>
   <graphicalsearchlabel>Use one of the graphical search tools to select features</graphicalsearchlabel>
   <spatialsearchlayer>true</spatialsearchlayer>
   <spatialrelationlayer>true</spatialrelationlayer>
   <titlefield>gis.DBO.AddressMaster.PCN</titlefield>
   <linkfield></linkfield>
   <fields all="true" gridfield="true"></fields>
   <zoomscale>4800</zoomscale>
</layer>

It only displays the title name. Shouldn't that return all the fields without having to specify the individual field names?

Thanks ....

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Nestor,

I definetly did not expect someone to use

<fields all="true" gridfield="true"></fields>

So as you can tell this does not work. I will look at getting this fixed in the next version.

I did not see any other way to include those fields in the datagrid so I took a shot.
Otherwise, Thank You for the great enhancements.

Nestor.

deleted-user-RjoC4IOGTpoH

Good Morning Robert,
Hope your weekend went well.

I have a question for a probable enhancement in the future (if possible).
Would it be possible for the data grid to show the sum of user defined column(s)?
The user would add sum="true" or something to that effect for each field that needs to be totaled.

We have users constantly selecting features that include lengths, square yards, etc. that need a quick total. Currently they need to export to Excel each time.

Your contributions are always appreciated.

Nestor.

RobertWetmore

Thank You, this is a very powerful widget.

The buffering works great but I can�??t seem to get the units to work out correctly. Through trial and error I found that entering a buffer distance of 40 meters = 100 feet on my map. Measuring with the draw widget confirms this. Changing the bufferunit from UNIT_METER to UNIT_FOOT I get a buffer of about 76 feet when I enter 100 feet. Changing the spatialReference from 4326 to 3857 (operational layer) or 102100 (base maps) makes no difference. Is there a configuration that I am missing?

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Robert,

You are running into a very common issue with any attempt to globalize measurements and get accurate results. The best thing to do is use a UTM 1983 zone that is specific to your area of concern and that will provide you the best results.

WendyWallace1

Great widget Robert!!!

Just wondering why when I do a text search - it's looking for my coded domains (#'s)
and show up as numbers instead of the actual values?
The identify widget works correctly - returns the values (text instead of the coded domain #'s).
I'm just not sure if it's the swf or xml that sets this?

Thanks for a great export tool as well!!

deleted-user-RjoC4IOGTpoH

Good Morning Robert,

Hope your weekend went well.

I have the following code in the xml file.
It keeps ignoring the linkprefix entry and just returns the data in the field after the server name (http://gissrv1/[PAPA]).

Does the code look correct to you? If so, where should I look to see if there is a problem?

Thanks ...

Nestor.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Nestor,

Is this only happening in the floating grid or in the widget results as well?

RobertScheitlin__GISP

wowallace & Nestor,

Try the latest version and see if it resolves each of your issues.

JustinFultz

Robert,

Great widget! It is my understanding the version 2.1.4 should show the coded domain values rather than the actual database value. I am not seeing this in the datagrid. Is there a specific statement that has to be added to the SearchWidget.xml config file?

Thx!

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Justin,

Your right it is not working for the datagrid just the actual search widget results right now I will have to fix that. Stay tuned for another release.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Justin,

Since only 4 people downloaded version 2.1.4 before you informed me of the issue with the grid I did not feel like sequencing the version number again so even know it still says 2.1.4 it has the coded values in the grid fixed. Just make sure when you download you have a file named eSearch2.1.4_.zip notice the underscore before the dot zip.

Hi Robert.

I installed the latest version 2.1.4_ with no luck.
It is happening with both the floating grid and the widget results.

If this might help, the Identify Widget works ok with the prefix and suffix.

Nestor.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Nestor,

It will work if you add the linkprefix and linksuffix to the field element that is the hyperlink field.

JustinFultz

Robert,

2.1.4_ worked perfect for me for the domain values in the datagrid.

Is there a way to use all layers in the graphical search, like you can do in ArcMap so that your user wouldn't have to specify layers to search for? I grouped the layers and used the group layer identifyer as the url, but got errors when I would try to use a search box on the map. Any ideas?

Great widget! Thanks for your help!

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Justin,

The search widget uses the querytask which is layer specific. You could create a hybrid that uses findtask instead for the graphical search but I don"t have any plans for this.

Nestor,

Good Morning Robert,
Hope you had a great GIS Day.

Still no luck even with the linkprefix and suffix in the field element. All it returns when you click on or even displayed in the popup is the contents of the PAPA field which is the 17 digit Property Control Number. It just seems to ignore the linkprefix statement. As I stated earlier, it works perfectly in your Identify widget. Here is the code again in case I am missing something, which is a good possibility:

Robert,

I also observed a similar difference in measurements. I changed the spatial refrence to 2153 for UTM 83 Zone 11, but it did not chage the measurement value. A 400 meters buffer distance around a point gives a measurement of 263 meters with eDraw widget tool.

It seems that the spatial reference is not being implemented at all, no matter what spatial reference Id you change to.

Other than that, it's a great widget.

ErwanCaradec

Hello Nadeem,
has Robert merged my code for the spatial search to his enhanced search, the two original part of the widget dont use the same source for the spatial reference. The spatial search use the map spatial reference instead of the wkid set in the SearchWidget.xml. I'll report this problem to Robert, he will decide wich is the best solution.

Erwan.
