Transparency Label w/ Add Map Service function in Sample Viewer

JonFisher — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 20:48:22 GMT

Hi,

I'm using the Live Maps widget in the esa directory of the sample map viewer which allows a user to add map services. However, I have two issues with it:

1. while the user-entered name is used in the table of contents, in the transparency pane any added services get generic names like ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer1482. Is there an easy way to use the user-entered name instead?

2. I can't get any WMS links to work. If someone has had success adding a WMS link can you please post the link so I can see it?

thanks!

Jon

Jon,

1. Just add this line under line 164 of the LiveMapsWidget.mxml

dynlayer.name = NameTxt.text;

2. The issue you are likely having is that the WMS portion of code is try to use the proxy url and you do not have you development environment configured properly to work with the proxy page. Easy solution comment out this line @ line 186

wmslayer.proxyURL = configData.proxy
