custom icons templatePicker?

CorySilva — Sat, 27 Oct 2012 03:44:27 GMT

What is the best way to use custom icons with the dynamically built dojo widgets?
or
Can I link up a drawing template to a static html node like this:
<div id="template1" dojo-do-something...><img src="template1.png" /></div>

All in all I want to use custom icons for all the feature templates that templatePicker shows.

Well I ended up doing it the sloppy/annoying way.. A bunch of css overrides on the templatePicker itself. If anyone knows a mo' better way please let me know.

Are you looking to extend the template picker or build something custom?
I've had a couple of scenarios where I needed to create data that wasn't tied to a map service, so I made a drag and drop utility with custom symbols.
Here is a sample

Here is the source

Combine that with the Editor widget and a FeatureLayer and you should be flying.

It might help out.
