Changing initial and full extent

JerryBiedenbender — Thu, 23 Sep 2010 13:53:32 GMT

Hello,

Last year some time I changed my initial and full extent, somehow since then i forgot how i generated my numbers... Below are the numbers I came up with, can anyone help me figure out how I got these?

<map initialExtent="-84.90277734538269 38.7338197517395 -84.215445191206238 39.18013933181763"

fullExtent="-84.53701573085785 39.027650384902955 -84.52627516596222 39.034624128341676">

Jerry,

Go to your Rest Service Directory and they are listed there.

Ahh, Robert you jump started my memory. I remember having a lot of trouble with this last year, the default extents that show up in the rest services were not exactly what I was looking for. I ended up creating bookmarks of where I wanted to capture the extents. In flexViewer when you view these bookmarks it shows you the four number coordinate system thats needed for the extents. I used these to set my initial and full extents to particular zoomed areas. Hopefully you can use this info to help others.

Thanks!
Jerry

Shall the Extend Helper do the same under Concepts from the web based help @ http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapps/flexviewer/help/index.html

The 'Extent Helper' helps you get the extents for bookmarks and also the Initial Extent.

But how can you use this to change the Full Extents in the new Navigator Widget? I couldn't find a "full extent" to replace in the main config file or within the widget.

The Flex Viewer also did not read the extents of my operational layer for this.

Please help!

The syntax is the same as for initial extent except the property name is fullextent, so for example:

<map initialextent="1234000 7409000 1604000 7607000"
          fullextent="-4743000 5022000 7115000 11343000"
          top="40">
