Can you Mask an Image Service in a Flex App

NicholasMcNamara

I have a basemap service that covers two towns. I have a few flex apps. One of the apps I want to be geographically restricted to only 1 of those towns. I have boundary layers to delineate the towns. Without creating a new basemap service, is it possible to mask out the part of the basemap that I don't want seen?

I know there are sublayer definitionqueries to mask out vector layers, so I'd to do something similar with an image layer, but based on a spatial query. I'm running 10.1.1, Flex 3.2.

Is there a reason you don't want to do it the easy way and just place a white polygon above the town you don't want the user to see? You can exclude that service used as the mask from the TOC, legend, etc. where the user will never even know it's there.

Masking is not required but this solution will work for you.

You just need to pass in the allowed max extents.

Thanks

I'm using the Flex Viewer, I'm not writing any code. Unless there is a widget for this, I'm not sure I can do it then...?

Create another service just to mask out the image? I guess I could do that. I was just hoping for a cleaner solution, possible with standard configuration. But if that's the only option, I guess I'll use that.
