Query Tool Available

RichZwaap

A new Query Tool is now available for the ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight. The tool allows users of the Application Builder to interactively build queries against ArcGIS Server services, presenting end-users with a simple dialog box that prompts for values to plug into the query. End-users of a configured query tool are prompted to input query values into text boxes, drop-down lists, or both. Results are shown on the map and in the Viewer�??s attribute table. For developer's the tool's full source code is available.

To get started using the tool or exploring its implementation, simply download it from ArcGIS Online.

I have experienced the same issue as Jamal where changes are not saved to the Tool.xml file even though the "Changes Saved Successfully" dialog gets displayed. I have not been able to determine what causes the issue. I only seem to have issues with the Parcels layer. I have successfully added the Query Tool to do 8 different queries in the same application, however I have never been able to add one using my Parcels layer and have the changes saved correctly. I can watch the Tool.xml file timestamp in Windows Explorer and see if my changes were saved. If I then remove the offending Query Tool on the Parcels layer the changes are saved correctly and the Timestamp on the file updates to the current time. I can add another query tool accessing a different layer in the service and it works and saves correctly.

On another topic, I would also like to see the ability to concatenate a wildcard character to the end of the string entered by the user, only if the user did not enter one, when LIKE comparisons are made. I even forget to add the wildcard character myself while testing.

Thanks
Steve

Hello,

With the tool "Query Layer". I am setting it up to find a road name, but as someone else has already mentioned, if you use a query expression without the drop down list you must type in the full road name as it appears in the layer because there is no option for a wildcard with the LIKE operator. ie. Street Name LIKE "input road name".

Is this correct and will it be altered at all in the near future?

Thanks,

Lara

Is there a way to define in the configuration of the Query tool, wildcards?

Thanks Jamal, seems that the problem is that is not allowed from my work. I will try to download it from home.

Regards, Manuel

Hope you will be able to download it at home.

Can you try deleting the QueryTool.AddIns and then clear your browser cache or use another browser to upload it again?

I had the same problem with Chrome. I deleted the tool from Application Builder using Chrome.
After that I uploaded the Add-In using IE 9.

How can I get this tool to work with multiple layers? For instance, I want to be able to search for ID numbers for sewer, storm, water, and electric features all at once. Each of these layers has their own unique ID in the service URL. Right now, it only works against one layer. Is it possible to perform searches against multiple layers?

How can I make this query tool to work with multiple feature layers? For example I have several features layers, I would like to query all features in those multiple layers by a country name and display on the map. Currently this tool works with one layer at a time. But I need a single tool to query all records from multiple feature services at once.

Any idea, where I should look at the code?

Ioannis, have you solved your probleb. Same case with me.

After uploading QueryTool.AddIns.xap in Silverlight Viewer, the "Query Layer tool" does not appear in the Query category of Add Tool Dialog.

Any suggestion how to overcome this problem?

Higly appreciated.

Ali,
unfortunately, I haven't had any reply or solution so far.

Keep me posted if anything comes up from your side

I just finished building something similar ... that performs SQL queries that return a graphics layer, without the user actually having to formulate an SQL query, by entering the attribute value only.

What I need is a similar tool that filters an existing layer using the FeatureLayer.Where property.

I can't figure out how to convert the logic in the Silverlight API example to something I can use in ArcGIS for Sharepoint, or Viewer.

http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#FeatureLayerFiltering

It would return the same results as the current out of the box filter tool that is offered for ArcGIS for Sharepoint, but using the same interface I use in the search tool I built that doesn't require the user to formulate an SQL theory. thanks for any input

I have downloaded the zip file and extracted it. I upload successfully the QueryTool.AddIns.xap in Silverlight Viewer 3.1 and when I select �??Details�?? in the �??Add-In Details: QueryTool.AddIns�?� window there are no add-ins listed.

As a result the tool does not appear in the Add Tool dialog in the Query category.

Any ideas how to overcome this problem?

Thank you in advance,
Ioannis

Is it possible to have the query tool open at initial page load by default?
So the user can select which data fields they were interested in right from the beginning. Would it be hard to modify the xaml to configure it like that?

Any thoughts are appreciated-

I've been experimenting with ArcGIS Viewer for SilverLight because it's a simple way to get started creating a basic web app. The Search Tool was lacking in functionality. The Query Tool was badly needed and works great. Thanks for sharing.
