Is there any word on which release the improved military symbol support will be in?  I didn't notice anything in the 10.2.7 release notes ... View more

Changes to an existing CompositeSymbol (adding, removing, or updating the symbols it contains) are not reflected in the display. Workaround: Recreate, modify, and re-apply the composite symbol as illustrated in the following example. ... View more

Yes, that is what we are using, but we've had to turn off the default Editor lines that display when you add points to the map, and adjusting them if they cross the meridian and then normalize.  It's very cumbersome.  In the samples app, Symbology->Line and Fill symbols you will see that your editor does not work across the dateline. ...

We are using 10.2.5 and no, it does not make a difference which order the drawing is done, and normalizing does not help.  Even the lines from the editor wrap around ... View more

Agreed.  While they have made some improvements to it, we've had to create HQ and TF indicators on our own, as well as grab echelon and mobility indicators and put them in as part of the composite symbols.  The GetSymbolImage function does not return anything other than an unknown image, it would be nice if this returned a fully formed image.  Which third party tool did you end up using?  We ended up doing a color swap for destroyed symbols, and made transparent for anticipated symbols.  Not an ideal solution, but it works. The CompositeSymbol issue was listed as a bug in 10.2.6, in my opinion a bug that should have delayed release.  We did not upgrade to 10.2.6 and will wait until this is fixed rather than rewrite our composite symbol code as it works fine in 10.2.5 ...

We ended up using a CompositeSymbol and adding the TextSymbols manually.  There's a major issue with updating CompositeSymbols not refreshing in 10.2.6 htough. ... View more

Is there an update on Anticpated/Planned symbols?  Is there a version where this is expected to be implemented? ... View more

I have not seen the Access Violation since we upgraded to 10.2.5, however, just this afternoon I have many times started receiving the following error and our application crashing: Unhandled exception at 0x770a2f71 in xxx.WPF.exe: 0xC0020001: The string binding is invalid. > KernelBase.dll!770a2f71()   [Frames below may be incorrect and/or missing, no symbols loaded for KernelBase.dll]   clr.dll!59d6b06b()   clr.dll!59d6b06b()   clr.dll!59e34ab9()   clr.dll!59ab27fe()   RuntimeCoreNETDesktop.dll!0f3d1c8a()   RuntimeCoreNETDesktop.dll!0f3d0f9f()   RuntimeCoreNETDesktop.dll!0f433371()   msvcp120.dll!0556ef56() ...

We are not using feature layers at all.  It looks like your crash is coming from the License check function.  That would be something that could be occurring when the application is doing nothing, like in our case.  Another thing we have in our application is a second small overview map on the same window.  Maybe having two mapview's in the same window could cause a problem? ...

I am still unable to have it crash in my sample application, however, occasionally in our main application it doesn't happen either, although it does happen relatively often and on development and test machines.  I wonder if it would be worth generating a debug version of the runtime for us with the .pdb files (source code even better), and we may be able to better understand exactly what part is causing the problem since it's difficult to reproduce ...

I have been trying to reproduce it with a scaled down sample application without success. It is happening in a scenario where I have one online layer: World Imagery, ServiceUri="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Imagery/MapServer" We have a military message layer with a few minefields and wire obstacles. There are multiple graphics layers with basic polygon graphics, but a large number of them There is a graphics layer that has many custom rendered symbols that we set the symbol image using SetSourceAsync(stream) When it crashes, the application isn't doing anything at all.  I did notice when I had all exceptions turned on that I would occasionally get a WebException, so the runtime does seem to be accessing the internet even though the map extent hasn't changed. ...
