mobile popups & geolocation

ThomasEbert — Tue, 09 Aug 2011 19:20:36 GMT

Hi all!

Currently, it is necessary to click/touch/dip onto the map for displaying popups.

I would like to open popups automatically (eg. on mobile devices) at the current geolocation of a web map from ArcGIS.com. Therefore no extra click/touch onto the map is required for information. Does anyone have ideas for me to do this with the mobile popups of Vers. 2.4 (esri.dijit.PopupMobile)

You can display the popup without user interaction using map.infoWindow.show. Here's a short snippet that displays address information in a popup.

  
        geom = candidate.location;
        map.infoWindow.setTitle("Location");
        map.infoWindow.setContent(candidate.address);
        map.infoWindow.show(geom);.

Thank you Kelly. This works for me.

In my next step I would like to show query results of several feature layers in my popup window (without a dip/touch) at my current geolocation.

Thank you for ideas to do this.

The following sample shows how to populate a popup window with the results of an identify. You could modify this code to display the results of a query task instead.

If you want to display the results of multiple query task take a look at this forum discussion regarding using dojo Deferred and DeferredLists.
