I have a print service setup with custom layouts published with Export Web Map. The Layouts do not contain any layers, these are added in the PrintTask .  I have created a dictionary of all of the layers that are within my map extent named legendInfo. For the legend I need to set the SublayerIds for the Legend Layer to be those that are within the map extent and are visible. This is done to minimize the size of the Legend on the pdf. For the dictionary key value pair, the key is the ID of the ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer and the values are a List<int> of the subids for the ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer. . I have tried several casts such as pair.Value as IEnumerable<List<int>>. SublayerIds are null after the loop has finished. Scratching my head...any suggestions? Thanks in advance... Margo          foreach (var pair in legendInfo)                 {                     ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Printing.LegendLayer myLegendLayer = new ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Printing.LegendLayer();                     // Set the LegendLayer.LayerId to the Layer.ID to add it to the printed map's legend area.                     myLegendLayer.LayerId = pair.Key.ToString();                                                        myLegendLayer.SubLayerIds = pair.Value as IEnumerable<Object>;                                                           myLegendLayers.Add(myLegendLayer);                 }  ...

I need an explanation about the relationship of the VisCode and the TarIsVis fields.  I have an observer and target locations. My TarIsVis says that the target is visible.  I would think that my line-of-sight line would be entirely visible (VisCode =1).  What I have are two lines with a VisCode = 1 and a VisCode = 2.  Most of the line is not visible, VisCode = 2.  This does not intuitively make sense.  Could someone please explain how this can be the case. I am using a LIDAR DSM.  The LOS calculations are being done with a Geoprocessing service. Thanks for any information you can provide! ... View more

I am accessing a  MapServer that has a parcel layer that I am trying to select taxlots with a both a spatial query and an attribute query.  I am accessing the MapServer with a url and am not part of the user AGSusers or Admin groups. The spatial query is based on a local shape file. Seems simple enough but I get the following error message from  Fiddler: ???Layer not found.7>5 y??H??V?~? "esriCarto.MapServer??? The local shape file and the MapServer layer are both in the same projection. I am accessing the Mapsever with an IAGSServerConnection Connection.  Code is below: Dim connectionProperties As IPropertySet = New PropertySetClass() connectionProperties.SetProperty("Url", "http://www3.multco.us/ArcGIS/Services") Dim obj As System.Object = Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetTypeFromProgID("esriGISClient.AGSServerConnectionFactory")) Dim PEnumSoName As IAGSEnumServerObjectName = AGSServerConnection.ServerObjectNames             Dim pSOName As IAGSServerObjectName = PEnumSoName.Next             PEnumSoName = AGSServerConnection.ServerObjectNames             Do Until pSOName Is Nothing                 If pSOName.Name = "BaseMap/Taxlots" Then Exit Do                               pSOName = PEnumSoName.Next             Loop             If pSOName Is Nothing Then Exit Sub                         pName = pSOName             pMapServer = pName.Open                        Dim pMapServerInfo As IMapServerInfo = pMapServer.GetServerInfo(pMapServer.DefaultMapName)             Dim pMD As IMapDescription = pMapServerInfo.DefaultMapDescription ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Add Mapserver layer to Toc??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? pMSLayer.ServerConnect(pSOName, pMapServer.DefaultMapName)             'Add layer to map            t pMap = mxDocument.FocusMap             pAV = pMap             pMap.AddLayer(pMSLayer)             pAV.Refresh() ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Create Spatial Filiter with Attribute query????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Do I have to create it with a servercontext,  ISpatialFilter pSpatialFilter = pServerContext.CreateObject(     "esriGeodatabase.SpatialFilter")as ISpatialFilter; If I need to create the spatial filter with a ServerContext does anyone have some code that shows doing this with a URL? Should I be doing something to specify that the Spatial Filter is based on a local shape file? Should I be using a different type of connection, possibly with the ESRI.ARCGIS.ADF.Connection.AGS Namespace? Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance for any guidance that you can provide. Best Regards, Margo ... View more

I need a mapprogressbar that has the graphical status bar and text in addition to the percent complete text. The control text would be something like �??Fetching Data�?� and the percent complete text on top of the graphical status bar. I have looked at the example at  http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/apiref/api_start.htm and in the example in the Samples directory, but can�??t see how to do this. Can someone point me in the right direction? Best Regards, Margo Best Regards, Margo ... View more

I am trying to add the Air Temperature layer RTMA_AIR_AIRTEMP from the WMS service at nowcoast.noaa.gov.  I have not been able to find an ArcServer Site with this information so I have to use the WMS service. The projection of the service is mercator:3857. All the arcgisonline layers display fine but not the WMS layer. From Fiddler I get: "http://nowcoast.noaa.gov/wms/com.esri.wms.Esrimap/analyses?service=Wms?&SERVICE=WMS" &REQUEST=GetMap&WIDTH=1583&HEIGHT=1000&FORMAT=image/png&LAYERS=RTMA_RAS_AIRTEMP &STYLES=&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&VERSION=1.1.1 &SRS=EPSG:3857&bbox=-14146326.877,4730925.48441977,-12388811.793,5841168.74658023 My XAML is: <esri:Map x:Name="MyMap"  Extent="-14146326.877,4914555.193,-12388811.793,5657539.038" Height="1000" ExtentChanged= "MyMap_ExtentChanged" Loaded="MyMap_Loaded">                     <esri:ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer ID="Road Map" Visible="True"                             Url="http://services.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer"/>                     <esri:ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer ID="Aerials" Visible="True" Opacity="0.0"              Url="http://services.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Imagery/MapServer" />                     <esri:ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer ID="USGS Topo Map" Visible="False"                             Url="http://services.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/USA_Topo_Maps/MapServer"/>                                                       <esri:WmsLayer ID="OtherWMSLayer"                                                 Url="http://nowcoast.noaa.gov/wms/com.esri.wms.Esrimap/analyses?service=Wms?"                                       SkipGetCapabilities="True"                              Layers="RTMA_RAS_AIRTEMP"                            Version="1.1.1"                            Opacity="0.7"                               InitializationFailed="WmsLayer_InitializationFailed"                                   />               Does anyone have any suggestions; I can???t see why this does not display the WMS layer?

Hello???I have tried to query several GeoServer WMS clients programmatically with the following code: Dim wmsLayer1 As ServiceLayer = New ServiceLayer(New ServiceConnectionProperties(ServiceType.Wms, New Uri("http://giswebservices.massgis.state.ma.us/geoserver/wms?"), "States")) Dim connected1 As Boolean = wmsLayer1.Connect() MessageBox.Show(connected1.ToString) MessageBox.Show(wmsLayer1.CanQuery.ToString) I get a "false" for the CanQuery and a "true" for connected1. The URL works when I add it manually. Can I query a WMS service from Explorer? A separate question, does Explorer support WFS clients at build1500 Thanks for any information you can provide, Best Regards, Margo ... View more

I am working on a custom popup that I want to have act in a very similar manner to existing AE popup.  I need the popup to access data that have a one-to-many relationship.  The approach I am taking is to create an extension add-in, but the problem I am having is how to get the popup to fire, what event can I use to trigger the extension to run its code.  I have seen examples that use the GraphicClicked event, but what I need is an event for clicking on the activemapdisplay. I want the custom popup to fire much like what the out-of-the-box AE popup does, with a mouse click. Can someone point me in the right direction? Best Regards, Margo ... View more

I have had to reinstall my OS which required a reinstall of my ArcExplorer Developers Environment.  I have XP Home sp3, ArcGIS 10.00, VB 2008 sp 1, IE 8.00, ArcExplorer Build 1500(not current user) and the SDK for ArcExplorer. When I open VB 2008 and try to make a new project with the template I get a wicked, ugly error message.  I have enclosed a screen print of error message but their is a  reference to the ArcExplorer ESRI.ArcExplorer.Devtools.wizard Help! Any information would be greatly appreciated. Best Regards, Margo ... View more

I need to programmatically close a Dockwindow.  Do I need to get the Handle for the Control and go that way? This should be simple, but unfortunately it does not appear to be so. Can someone point me in the right direction? Best Regards, Margo ... View more

Hello All... Excellent new function, to be able to convert from a note to a Layer Package, thanks ESRI! But I need to be able to programmatically implement the same functionality as the Share for a note that converts a note to a Layer Package.  I do not see anything that would do this in any of the namespace documentation.  Am I missing something, or did this functionality not make it into the Build 1500 SDK?
