I am looking at this web site for direction.
http://resources.esri.com/help/9.3/arcgisserver/apis/silverlight/samples/start.htm#AttributeQuery
There are a bunch of query tools like Find, identify, spatial query etc.

What I want to do is get these in a Tool bar and fire them from a button....how do I do that...by placing teh code randomly in the xaml file it runs right off the bat....I only want to fire that tools code when I click the button.....

Thanks in Advance....very new to this....apprciated.

Alright I am almost there....
I can add the toolbar and add Buttons that fire off ZoomIn, ZoomOut etc
I can add a Dropdown with choices...

BUT:
In the COMBOBOX I have a TEXTBLOCK There is no OnClick to fire code off.
I can do this with a Radion Button but then the Combobox dosent close

What I was tryign to do is get a toolbar that will have buttons to fire off tools (DONE)
BUT now what I want is a Button in the toolbar (image or whatever) that when hovered over opens a dialog box (that appears like a dropdownbox) and gives the user choices....Very similar to a dropdown box but not a dropdown box...

I have been going through the tutorials....
I found what I wanted....A toolbar with images that when you hover over them it drops down a list of choices....As I have said this is all in CS and broken into a KBar assembly...or soemthing...where there are a bunch of additional CS pages.
I have not found 1 example of how to put an image/button/???? in the toolbar that will give the user a list when they hover over it....other than the one mentioned above

Example (THE STANDARD EXAMPLE HAS A MENU DROP DOWN)
http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/TemplateGalleryWeb/start.htm

I trully appreciate your help here....it is greatly appreciated...I am slowly learning this and hope to some day pass it forward....

JenniferNery

Yeah you can use any control that you wish to use. I just suggested ComboBox because you wanted a drop down menu. Try it the way you wanted it first. Go through tutorials too.

JayKappy

I can add Radion buttons....and have an ONCLCK event (I Have this working and it calls the vb and turns on the imagery)....BUT I CANNOT get a click event to work on the TEXTBLOCK in the combobox.....so nothing happens when I click the text in the dropdown....
The button below obviosly dosent work....

What else can I use instead of the combobox? I want an image there...

What I am after:
Have an image in the toolbar
Hover over it and have it expand to show choices
click a choice (tool, turn on layer etc)
When I move off the button or expanded selection list it closes automatically....

                                
<esriToolkit:ToolbarItem Text="TESTING">
       <esriToolkit:ToolbarItem.Content>
            <ComboBox HorizontalAlignment="Center" Width="35" Margin="2">
                     <ComboBox.Items>                                         
                           <TextBlock x:Name="ZoomIn" Text="ZoomIn" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>
                           <TextBlock x:Name="ZoomOut" Text="ZoomOut" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>
                           <Button x:Name="Button" Tag="4" Click="RadioButton_Click" Background="Azure"/>
                           <RadioButton x:Name="StreetsRadioButton0" Tag="0" IsChecked="False" Margin="5,0,0,0" Foreground="Black" GroupName="Layers" Content="Streets" Click="RadioButton_Click"/>
                     </ComboBox.Items>
            </ComboBox>
      </esriToolkit:ToolbarItem.Content>
</esriToolkit:ToolbarItem>

I do thank you very much for your thoughts and help....I am trying here....
Is there a place where I can go to learn or see what options I have other than COMBOBOX - TEXTBLOCK....
I can get a combobox thing to show up with the options in it BUT I AM LOOKING to have an image there...to act like a button that expands the list....

I guess this is cool but I am looking to have a button and ONCLick event on that choice like the example above.....
But that ESRI example is using a bunch of additional CS pages KBar, MenuIcon etc.....Cant I simply use the button calls like that example?????

                                <esriToolkit:ToolbarItem Text="TESTING">
                                    <esriToolkit:ToolbarItem.Content>
                                        <ComboBox HorizontalAlignment="Center" Width="35">
                                            <ComboBox.Items>
                                                <TextBlock x:Name="ZoomIn" Text="ZoomIn" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>
                                                <TextBlock x:Name="ZoomOut" Text="ZoomOut" HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>
                                            </ComboBox.Items>
                                        </ComboBox>
                                    </esriToolkit:ToolbarItem.Content>
                                </esriToolkit:ToolbarItem>

JenniferNery

Instead of using Image as ComboBox items, try to replacing them with <TextBlock Text="test"/> for now. If you see this text "test" twice but was unable to see the images earlier, then your Uri may be incorrect or those images may not be added correctly to your project.

JayKappy

THis is what I am trying from your thoughts......nothign showing up....

anyone have any thoughts....I am tryign to get a button to show up on the tool bar...when clicked it opens to give the two choices....(zoom in and zoom out)

</src:MenuIcon.Items>
</src:MenuIcon>

When you see examples in C# and there's no VB equivalent available, you might want to try and use an online converter C# to VB like this one http://www.developerfusion.com/tools/convert/csharp-to-vb/

Any example with one button/image that drops down and links to a zoom tool is all I am looking for.

Have you looked at the ToolBar sample?http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#ToolBarWidget

You can use a ComboBox with Image items and write code for the SelectionChanged event handler

   <ComboBox VerticalAlignment="Top" HorizontalAlignment="Center" Height="55" Width="70" SelectedIndex="0"  SelectionChanged="ComboBox_SelectionChanged">
   <ComboBox.Items>
    <Image x:Name="ZoomIn" Source="images/i_zoomin.png" Height="35" Width="35" Stretch="None"/>
    <Image x:Name="ZoomOut" Source="images/i_zoomout.png" Height="35" Width="35" Stretch="None"/>
   </ComboBox.Items>
  </ComboBox>

I'm not really sure how your project is setup so I can't tell you how to use the KBar, MenuButton, SubButton. However you can download the SDK sample if it would be easier to view and learn the project structure that way.

Jennifer...thanks for your thougths....I have been trying...I have added a few controls from ESRI silverlight WPF Api resource center....but I am now simply trying to add a box with a couple buttons in it....when you hover over one of the image it expands and contains options, tools etc...
I have not foudn a simple VB example to follow....everything I have foudn similar to this is CS and has tons of folders with additional cs files etc.

Any example with one button/image that drops down and links to a zoom tool is all I am looking for.

Anyone out there know of an easy example in VB?

If I dont use KBar, MenuButton, SubButton as seen in code in previos entry what do I use as a SRC?

JenniferNery

The first link you shared http://resources.esri.com/help/9.3/arcgisserver/apis/silverlight/samples/start.htm#AttributeQuery has a corresponding VB code (see Code Behind VB tab).

KBar, MenuIcon, SubButton referenced below were additional cs files in the project. They each had a new namespace ex KBar....which is called in themain xaml file seen below....What kind of NEW ITEM was created to create these when you right click the folder that was added?

If KBar, MenuIcon, SubButton belong to different namespaces, then you cannot use a single xaml namespace for them <src:Kbar../>, <src:MenuIcon../>.
Instead, you will need separate xaml namespace definition for each like:
xmlns:srcKBar="clr-namespace:MyKBarNamespace"
xmlns:srcMenuIcon="clr-namespace:MyMenuIconNamespace"

Usually though, files belonging to the same project have the same namespace. When folders are added, and you add new item (for example, UserControl) underneath that folder, a new namespace is created with that folder name. It is up to you to keep or edit this new namespace. You just need to know how to access them in xaml and code-behind. While code-behind have Imports/using statements, XAML also have xmlns.

I hope this helps somewhat. Try to start with a very simple project first (it does not need to be one of our SDK samples right away) just to get a feel of what goes where and how they come together.

THanks for the info.....And sorry if this does not make much sense...frustrated adn confused here.....I referenced 3 and 4...I understand these controls, I have been adding controls from the ArcGIS resource center.......What I was refering to in the example was in Visual Studio, in the project file there were additional folders adn files that contained extra cs pages that were called/referenced from the main xaml file....This was not covered in 3 and 4 on the tutorial you posted...I was trying to figure that out...how adn where it was referenced in the main xaml file and where else.....

You look adn there is a folder with extra cs pages there...Looks like the person right click the main project name in VS and chose NEW FOLDER....Did the person then add a SIlverlight app, Silverlight User Control, SilverlightPage?

KBar, MenuIcon, SubButton referenced below were additional cs files in the project. They each had a new namespace ex KBar....which is called in themain xaml file seen below....What kind of NEW ITEM was created to create these when you right click the folder that was added?

<src:KBar x:Name="MyIC" Margin="10" Width="400" HorizontalAlignment="Left" CurrentTool="None">
            <src:KBar.Items>
                <src:MenuIcon ImgSource="Assets/images/i_globe.png" ButtonText="Map">
                    <src:MenuIcon.Items>
                        <src:SubButton ButtonID="streetmap" ImgSource="Assets/images/i_highway.png" ButtonText="Street Map" Click="OnClick" />
                        <src:SubButton ButtonID="satellite" ImgSource="Assets/images/i_satellite.png" ButtonText="Satellite Map" Click="OnClick"/>
                        <src:SubButton ButtonID="overview" ImgSource="Assets/images/i_overview.png" ButtonText="Overview Map" Click="OnClick"/>
                    </src:MenuIcon.Items>
                </src:MenuIcon>

Is ESRI against VB or something....Every example I looked at was in CS no VB example...

This is some of the very basic of Silverlight development, so I would suggest you look through the tutorials on Silverlight, especially #3 and #4: http://www.silverlight.net/learn/quickstarts/ and http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/pages/silverlight-tutorial-part-6-using-user-controls-to-implement-master-detail-scenarios.aspx

On a side note the sample you refer to is a very advanced sample. If this is among your first ventures into Silverlight, you are in for a challenge 🙂
The "sample" is nver built to be reused or customized. It's just a sample that showcases some of the features that the API can do. It's not a very good end-user app.

I downloaded an example from ESRI website.
http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/sil...yWeb/start.htm
I used the last example...the ShowCase example.
I am very new to this and looking to learn. I noticed once I opened it up in Visual Studio that there were additional Folders. IE "UserControls"

Did they simply make a new folder?
Then create a new File
THen Create a new Silverlight control?

I am trying to replicate this although in VB...I think the code is in CSharp.
My main issue is getting all three parts to work and see the Name Space.....I cant seem to get this to work....

How does this work...the MainPage.xaml points to the folders .xaml file with then calls the namespace?

I know this is pretty vague question but just trying to get a drop down button holding tools to work....thanks in advance

Hi Jay,

I started with one of the application templates from the resource center - http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/gallery.html. Look for the 'unblended' template - it has a toolbar with an identify button on it that should help you get going.
Also check out this forum post - http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/9124-Identify..?highlight=graphic+visible
