Hiding a map service in the menuMap

TristanKnowlton — Fri, 14 May 2010 12:44:47 GMT

I would like to hide my cached map service of labels so that it does not appear in the main menu on the Sample Flex Viewer. I do not want it to be able to be toggled on/off, I just want it on all the time. I am assuming this can be done in the config.xml file with some type of keyword, but I cannot figure it out.

How do I make the labels appear in the the application without letting the service be available in the menu?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!!

This will remove the basemaps, but will leave the widgets in place.

In Config.xml, comment out the menuMap statement by replacing it with this line:


...then add this line below it.
<menu id="menuLayers" visible="true" icon="com/esri/solutions/flexviewer/assets/images/icons/i_globe.png">Map</menu>

Now, search for the widgets that have the statement menu="menuMap", and change it to menu="menuLayers"
