Nevermind Dominique, I got it to work with this code. Thank  you for your help in pointing me in the correct direction. <CheckBox Content="CheckBox" Height="16" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="331,261,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top" DataContext="{Binding Layers, ElementName=MyMap}" IsChecked="{Binding [GasLayer].ShowLegend, Mode=TwoWay}"  /> ...

I was attempting to keep a copy of the legend item and readd it but it seems like it will be overly complicated for multiple layers. Could you give an example of the binding the layer property to the checkbox?  Thanks! ... View more

Hey Dominique, I can successfully remove a legend entry with your example above. How would I go about re-adding an item after removing it? Once I remove the LayerItem from the Legend l no longer have access to that layer to use the insert method. Ex: if(HPGasLegend == false){     if (layerItemVM.Layer.ID == "HP_Gas_Feeder_Layer")     {            Legend.LayerItems.Remove(e.LayerItem);      } } else    {      // here is where I would like to reinsert the layer above that I removed based on a checkbox checked/unchecked event      // when I hover over the legend object and look through the collection I no longer see my layer that with the ID of "HP_Gas_Feeder_Layer"      // in the collection } Thanks for any help! ...

Sorry I misread your question.  I thought you were asking about dynamically generating symbology for a selected layer.  My instructions were for that. No problem. Your answer led me to  consider some other options for another application. Thanks! ... View more

Thanks for the response Schlot. I have been working through the sample https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/jssamples/renderer_dynamic_layer_change_attribute.html which allows the user to select a field from the specified service and generate a classification based on that field. It is based on a ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer.  In order to activate the 'dynamic layers' functionality you have create a geodatabase or shape file workspace and author that as a geodata service Check the box under Capabilities > Mapping in Properties to "Allow per request modification ..." click "Manage" to browse the the geodata service you just made. The geodata service is just a temporary workspace, near as I can tell.  It doesn't have anything in it. In my data, I have some values of -999 which indicates 'No data'.  I didn't want these to be included when I generated my renderer, so I needed a where clause.  In the sample, the function classBreaks is where the GenerateRendererParameters is defined.  I added a where clause, shown in red, which takes the field the user selected and excludes the -999 data so it doesn't get used when I generate the renderer.  I also needed to round my numbers, since some have too many decimals.  It seems to be working just fine.  I still need to figure out if you can symbolize this excluded data, with maybe a gray color or something. Is this the only way that you know of  to implement a where clause? This seems very involved considering a feature service is this simple: FeatureLayer l = new FeatureLayer()                 {                     ID = "MyFeatureLayer",                     Url = "http://serverNameBlahBlah/WPFTestFeatureLayer/FeatureServer/0",                     //Where = "1=1"                     Where = "ASSIGNED_TO = 'GIS_USER'"                     //,                     //Renderer = "{StaticResource MySimplePointRenderer}"                 }; ...

as long as the graphic geometry type matches what is published in your feature service you can call featureLayer.applyEdits() and pass it in within the 'adds' parameter. check out this sample for an example of the method in action. I see what you are referring to in the sample: selectedTemplate.featureLayer.applyEdits([newGraphic], null, null); I am able to add the graphic to the map but it isn't saving to the feature layer. Am I missing something?? I am trying to combine the  Draw Graphics on the map example   with the example you posted a link to  Above.         var map, toolbar, symbol, geomTask;         require([           "esri/map",           "esri/layers/ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer",           "esri/layers/FeatureLayer",           "esri/toolbars/draw",           "esri/graphic",           "esri/symbols/SimpleMarkerSymbol",           "esri/symbols/SimpleLineSymbol",           "esri/symbols/SimpleFillSymbol",           "dojo/parser",           "dijit/registry",           "dijit/form/Button",           "dijit/form/ValidationTextBox",           "esri/dijit/editing/Editor-all",           "dijit/layout/BorderContainer",           "dijit/layout/ContentPane",           "dojo/domReady!"                   ], function (           Map, ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer, FeatureLayer, Draw, Graphic,           SimpleMarkerSymbol, SimpleLineSymbol, SimpleFillSymbol,           parser, registry, button, validationTextBox, editorAll, borderContainer, contentPane         ) {             parser.parse();

Ok, I will keep researching. Thanks for your help! ... View more

Yes, we've been able to publish it, but I'm sure there were a couple of errors thrown up along the way that we had to address first. Could you give the details of the errors? Thanks for your response. "Layer's data source is not supported (Feature Service)" I also cannot edit the view through ArcMap (because it is a view?) even though I granted Select, Insert, Update, and Delete privileges. ...

That link sounds like the process my colleague followed. She tells me she was using the command line on the Oracle server itself, it wasn't via ArcCatalog. Hope this helps and it works out for you.

Was the command line tool used to create your "spatial view" an ArcCatalog command line tool? I also found a way to create the spatial view through SQL statements for anyone else researching this. http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/index.html#//002n000000t3000000 ... View more

Hi, I think it turned out the answer was right under my nose the whole time: "- Layer has an in-memory join or relate (Feature Service)"   It turned out that you couldn't use a layer with a join active on it to author a Feature Service (it's OK for a Map Service though). I had a specific need to publish a Feature Service, and we ended up with my colleague the database expert creating an SDE 'spatial view' instead, using command-line tools (we use Oracle for our database). The spatial view brings together the geography, plus variou fields from various tables but just to look at it you wouldn't know it's any different from any other feature class. Esri tech support helped us with getting the spatial view constructed when we ran into a problem. Hope this helps, good luck!
