Hi All I have a web map that has been created with a secure service. I now want to use this webmap within the Emergency Operations dashboard, however I get prompted that I need a certificate and then I can't access the webmap. What is the process for generating the certificate and I assume that any machine that wants access to this map needs the certificate. It would be a lot nicer if we could just enter the username and password to access the secure service. Please help, the service needs to be secure because it deals with building inspection information from emergency events, so it is sensitive data, and I'd rather not have it publicly available.

Hi there I'm creating a custom portal for our web site that will be pulling webmaps, applications etc from our ArcGIS Online for Organizations portal. I have everything up and running in a test environment, but one thing I was wondering about is how I can increase the view count on an item when a user links opens an item. At the moment a user can click on the item and view it, but this doesn't increase the view count on the item within the portal. I can understand why you may hide this functionality (to stop people creating massive view counts) but I was wondering if this is possible and if so how... I don't want to have users link through to the ArcGIS online portal and then launch from there either. Any helps or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks ... View more

Is there a way to test if a data frame has a fixed extent ? I have a process that is creating several maps, some have a fixed extent so I don't need to change the extent. I'd like to test for this so I can skip changing the extent. Thanks ... View more

Hi All I have created an HTML5 application for online and offline editng of data. It works pretty well until I have taken the final step and applied an application manifest to cache the files i need to run offline. Obvisouly one of these is the ESRI Api, however when I refresh the page after the initial load of the page i get the following error. "Could not load cross-domain resources: dojox.gfx.svg esri.nls.sjapi.... etc". What have I missed, I'm thinking the api makes calls to Dojo to load in some resources and as a result its trying to load these but can't ?? However I am still online when I do the refresh, and the browser is pulling everything from the cache. Any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks Grant ... View more

Hi all I'm creating an app that will be used exclusively with touch devices, the app will be used to edit point and line features in the field. What I would like to do is have the line feature edit tool default to the free hand tool, i'm not quite sure how to do this though. I am using a template picker so that the users can select which type of feature they are creating, can I set the drawing tool when the template is selected as below ? dojo.connect(templatePicker, "onSelectionChange", function () {                 var selected = templatePicker.getSelected();                 if (selected) {                   $('#featuresDialog').dialog('close');                   selected.template.drawingTool = 'esri.layers.FeatureTemplate.TOOL_FRREEHAND';                   updateTitle("Current template: " + $('#webmapTitle').html(selected.template.name));                 }             }); Do i have the correct syntax ? As when i do this the tool is still defaulted to the normal line drawing tool. Thanks in advance Grant ... View more
