Robert, your code worked great! Thanks!

Thanks. Your code is useful. I added mouseOver="setCursor(_spotlightIcon)" and mouseOut="clearCursor()" to my GraphicsLayer. But in order to make this effective, I would need to create a custom finger pointer cursor (apparently called a "hand cursor", which is different from the map pan cursor). Is there any way to use the built-in cursor? See http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/showing-the-hand-cursor-in-flex This has no effect on the map, though. Any ideas? Maybe the "hand cursor" is part of the OS and not part of Flash? (If so, I might have more flexibility in Flash 10.2.) http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/native-mouse-cursors.html 10.2 isn't really a desirable solution for me right now, though.

Since June we've hacked together a (less than optimal) solution that actually does repeat the globe and we've gotten our Pacific data to cluster in the ocean just west of our continent. It occasionally bugs out on us, though, and the map drawing speed is halved, making it kind of sluggish. You can see it here: http://coastalmanagement.noaa.gov/inyourstate/ We can confirm that ESRI is working on a solution. We've seen it demo'd on a programmer's laptop. We're checking their blog posts daily, waiting for its release, which they pegged at February at the FedUC last month. Unfortunately, they said the JavaScript API will be first, followed closely by Flex.

Hi. I have some point data from a REST service that I am displaying on my map using pretty icons defined in a GraphicsLayer: <esri:Map . . .> . . . <esri:GraphicsLayer> <esri:symbol> <esri:PictureMarkerSymbol source="...icon.png" /> </esri:symbol> </esri:GraphicsLayer> </esri:Map> I have a map click handler to do something when the user clicks a point. Currently, the "grab" cursor is present anywhere on the map so the user knows to pan. How do I change the cursor to a finger pointer while hovering over a point? I tried adding to the GraphicsLayer useHandCursor="true" but this had no effect, even if I set it to false. I tried setting useHandCursor="true" (and false) to the map itself and still no effect. Is ESRI overriding the cursor? How do I take control of it? Thanks!

I'm stumped. I have a map of watersheds of the United States: complex polygons tracing across the US that all meet the ocean eventually. I want to buffer these polygons a few km into the ocean. A Buffer operation will buffer each polygon individually, creating overlap. I can't have this. What I'd like is a sort of Thiessen bubble effect only where no polygons exist (the ocean). The Create Thiessen Polgons only accepts point inputs. There are hundreds of watersheds so I can't do this manually. What can I do? I'm using ArcInfo license on ArcMap 9.3.1 SP2. Attached is a visual of what I'm looking for (made in Photoshop).

The medium-gray InfoWindow with the pointy callout and little X in the corner isn't doing it for me. How can I style this?

A colleague just showed me how I can�??in ArcMap�??modify the coordinate system such that the Central Meridian is 180 instead of 0.* This makes the Pacific (and Russia) whole and looks fantastic! (Africa is now sliced in two.) However, another colleague says this strategy will not work in Flex. I'd be overjoyed if he was wrong. * ArcMap -> Data Frame Properties -> Coordinate System -> Modify -> change Central_Meridian from 0 to 180.

We have a lot of data in the Pacific. ESRI maps cuts the Pacific in half. Google Maps repeats the map in longitude. I'm looking for one of two solutions: 1. Can ESRI maps be coaxed into repeating both the basemap and the data? If so, how? 2. Can ESRI maps split point be moved from -180º lon to, say, -360º lon? (Such that the map displays from -360º lon to 0º lon, or 0º lon to 360º lon?) A prime example of this problem can be seen in TemplateData -> World -> continent, select Asia. Russia is sliced cleanly down ±180º.
