Mobile Editing App Attachment Question

MattSheehan — Wed, 19 Dec 2012 17:32:46 GMT

We are building a mobile editing app in Mobile Flex for iOS and Android, demo here:

We have editing in both online and offline mode working well. What we would like to add is the ability to attach an image to a feature. We have attachments enabled in our (sample) ArcGIS Online hosted feature service. We'd like in our Mobile Flex viewer to have a similar component to what there is in ArcGIS Online:

[ATTACH=CONFIG]20082[/ATTACH]

Any advice on how we might build this component we would welcome.

Thanks

Hey Rory,

You can take advantage of the AttachmentInspector component:http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-api/apiref/com/esri/ags/components/AttachmentInspector.html

The Edit Widget in the viewer already does include that component http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-viewer/live/index.html?config=apps/config-edit.xml. You can take a look at the source code for the widget here:https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-viewer-flex/tree/master/src/widgets/Edit
