Hi All - I have a collector inspection app that needs to calculate a 3rd field. It's not vital that the 3rd field is calculated in the field however the 3rd field does need to be seen if the asset is revisited. To simplify I have a table in a relationship class with the fields: Field1, Field2 and Field3. (Basically this was built following Jeff's Hydrant example) Worker collects values: Field1 = 250 and Field2 = 50. Field3 is NOT collected (Field3 = 0) Worker returns to office performs a sync, I setup an update trigger within SQL database that calculates Field3 = Field1- Field2 (in this example Field3 = 200) When the data is viewed in Portal I see all the fields with correct data values. The problem that I'm seeing is that the data(inspection record) on the device doesn't get updated to show that Field3 = 200. The only way (at the moment) to see the updated values is if I removed the collector app and reload it on the device. There has to be a way to see the updated values after my trigger is executed.  But I don't know how to "push" it back to the device. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks Tom ... View more

Hi All - I setup a inspection Collector app that pretty much follows Jeff Shaner's Feb 1015 blog posting. I was wondering if there is a way to calculate a field on the fly after data is entered, maybe by setting up some kind of a trigger to run a script...or maybe another way? Example: Field worker enters in 2 numbers, 100 and 25 and saves the data.  A third field is then calculated based on the numbers entered (100-25) for a value of 75, then the data is displayed within the app. Field1: 100 Field2: 25 Field3: 75 Thanks in advance.

Hi All - I'm building an Add-in for ArcMap (using C# and ArcObjects) that provides a custom dialog with a textbox that expects a parcel APN number; entered by the user. If the APN is valid, zoom to the location.  When I began developing this tool I took a subset of my Map Service parcel data and created a gdb. I got everything working and assumed...(wrongly)... that I could simply change the CLSID reference in the code from working with geodatabase layers to  MapServer sublayer.  As I stated, this was wrong. It now appears that I have an invalid cast. Can anyone suggest how I might be able to save most of this code without having to rewrite it to work with a map service? The map service supports the Query operation, I suspect the answer lies within IQuery. On the positive side, I have created a tool that will successfully close ArcMap...rather quickly too I might add. <Add-in code snippet>             IMxDocument pMxDoc = ArcMap.Document;             pMap = pMxDoc.FocusMap;             IEnumLayer pEnumLayer = null;             // string LayerCLSID = "{E156D7E5-22AF-11D3-9F99-00C04F6BC78E}";             string LayerCLSID = "{B059B902-5C7A-4287-982E-EF0BC77C6AAB}"; // IMapServerSublayer             ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem.UID uid = new ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem.UIDClass();             uid.Value = LayerCLSID;             pEnumLayer = pMap.get_Layers(((ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem.UID)(uid)), true);             pEnumLayer.Reset();             ILayer layer = pEnumLayer.Next();             ILayer selLayer = null;             while (!(layer == null))             {                 if (layer.Name == "Riverside Parcels")                 {                     selLayer = layer;                     string sqlStatement = "APN = '" + textBox1.Text + "'";                     IFeatureSelection fSelection = selLayer as IFeatureSelection; //  <= **** Invalid Cast? ****                     IQueryFilter qFilter = new QueryFilterClass();                     esriSelectionResultEnum selectionResult = new esriSelectionResultEnum();                     qFilter.WhereClause = sqlStatement;                     fSelection.SelectFeatures(qFilter,selectionResult,false);                 }//closes if                 layer = pEnumLayer.Next();              }//closes while Thanks Tom ...

I'm creating an Add-in using ArcObjects and C#, technology I haven't used in 10 plus years. I'm creating 3 tools that work on a specific polygon layer. Tool 1 - Select by Line; summarize selected polygon areas Tool 2 - Select by Polygon; summarize selected polygon areas Tool 3 - Select by Rectangle; summarize selected polygon areas  I found this sample; ArcObjects Help for .NET developers‌ ...and it works great for selecting my polygons using a line. I was able to convert it pretty easily to selecting my polygons by using a polygon. I changed theses lines; private INewLineFeedback m_lineFeedback; IPolyline polyline; to private INewPolygonFeedback m_lineFeedback; IPolygon polygon;  (and fixed all the errors that were generated.) Now I want to do something like this; private INewRectangleFeedback m_lineFeedback; IRectangle rectangle; It doesn't appear to be the same animal. Can anyone give me a nudge as to the interfaces I need to implement? I know I have to change some of the logic as well, since I'm not expecting a double click event (as shown in the sample).
