Not here.  We have loaded some basic data, but generally run into headaches with it, so it is just a stale copy of our real data that is incomprehensible to editors and database users.  I've wasted far too much time trying to adopt this model.  I'm about to give up actually. We don't have the resources to make it happen like Naperville I guess... We tried the special event template stuff first, and it's just not how we do special events.  We do have very special events, and this data model is not needed for them, ever.  I assumed things were different in other places where this data model could work. As I consider all our other departments and maps, it's rather clear most of the data model is not for us either.  We have some data that does not fit, like tunnels, so will always have another db to maintain.

Should this example do anything more than return the graphic?  Identify usually means the results are returned as attributes in a table, or info window of some sort.  Does the graphic signal a successful identify task and the rest is left to our imagination, or did I miss something?

That makes sense - I had removed the xml stuff when I saw this newer function.  And yes, it would be great to see your final code.    Thank you! ... View more

Thanks, I am changing the mxml, but the issue for me is the fields that were nicely specified in Robert's older example since the tool only worked on one service, the layer and its fields could be contained in the XML tags. Now, we have a layer.id that is giving a service to use and the layerIds = [0,1] for the layers in the map, but I don't get to say which fields.  Of course its just so I don't have to disable fields in the layers of the service itself.  I suppose I need one more parameter.  Or am I confused? ...

Would it be possible to do the same multi-layer, specific fields identify as your sample single-layer, specific fields, using only the XML to pass the fields?  I was think of trying tags such as <layer>SLO</layer> <fields>message</fields> <layer2>FPZ Overlay</layer2> <fields>message</fields> <layer3>ECPZ Overlay</layer3> <fields>message</fields> Below is the "latest" code you posted on point: //identify features    private function identifyFeatures():void    {     var identifyParams : IdentifyParameters = new IdentifyParameters();                 identifyParams.returnGeometry = false;                 identifyParams.tolerance = identifyTolerance;                 identifyParams.geometry = identifyPoint;                 identifyParams.width = map.width;                 identifyParams.height = map.height;                 identifyParams.mapExtent = map.extent;                 identifyParams.spatialReference = map.spatialReference;                                 for (var i:Number = map.layerIds.length -1; i >= 0; i--)     {      identifyParams.layerOption = identifyLayerOption;      identifyParams.layerIds = null      var layer:Layer = map.getLayer(map.layerIds);      var url:String;      if (layer.visible)      {                   if (layer is ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer)                   {                    var dynamicLayer:ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer = layer as ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer;                    url = dynamicLayer.url;                    if(identifyLayerOption == "visible")                    {                     identifyParams.layerIds = dynamicLayer.visibleLayers.source;                     identifyParams.layerOption = "all";                     if(dynamicLayer.visible == false)                      url="";                    }                    //This is the new code                    //Change Parcel Data to the map service name of yours you want to use                    //and change 67,68 to the layer numbers of yours                    //in the else url=""; is what makes it ignore all other map services                    //if there name is not (in my example) Parcel Data.                    if (layer.id == "Parcel Data")                    {                     identifyParams.layerIds = [67,68];                    } else {                     identifyParams.layerIds = null;                     url="";                    }                   }                   else if (layer is ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer)                   {                    var tiledLayer:ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer = layer as ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer;                    url = tiledLayer.url;                    if(identifyLayerOption == "visible")                    {                     if(tiledLayer.visible == false)                      url="";                    }                   }                            if(url)                   {                    var identifyTask:IdentifyTask = new IdentifyTask(url);                    identifyTask.addEventListener(IdentifyEvent.IDENTIFY_COMPLETE, onResult);                    identifyTask.addEventListener(FaultEvent.FAULT, onFault);                    identifyTask.execute(identifyParams);         showMessage(loadingLabel, true);        showStateResults(null);                     }          }                 }    } ...
