Dojo Accordian Editing Template Picker Display issues

RobDunfey — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 11:41:42 GMT

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to configure one of the editing samples with the Dojo Accordian panes:

I've taken this simple editor sample:

http://resources.esri.com/help/webapi/javascript/arcgis/help/jssamples_start.htm

...and I am trying to wire it up with the Accordian panel as illustrated in the San Diego Neighborhood example from the 2009 UC:

http://resources.esri.com/arcgisserver/apis/javascript/arcgis/index.cfm?fa=codeGalleryDetails&scriptID=16445

The problem is I'm just getting the blue outline for the template picker and no options to pick from. The template picker works prior to adding it to the accordian.

The contents of my JavaScript File is below, but am I missing something obvious, should it be possible to place a template picker inside an accordian pane or not?

Any thoughts appreciated,

Rob

And my accordian pane HTML snippet:

        <div id="myAccordionContainer" dojoType="dijit.layout.AccordionContainer" style="height:400px">
      <div dojoType="dijit.layout.ContentPane" id="paneWelcome" title="Welcome" selected="true"></div>
      <div dojoType="dijit.layout.ContentPane" id="paneEdit" title="Add to Map"><div id="divFeatureServiceDijit"></div></div>
      <div dojoType="dijit.layout.ContentPane" id="paneIHS" title="IHS"></div>

        </div>

Rob,

It looks like the accordion pane you want to display the editor on is not visible when the application first loads. In cases like this you can create the editor widget the first time you show the editor panel, here's a snippet that shows this:

      var accordion = dijit.byId("myAccordionContainer"); 
      dojo.connect(accordion, "selectChild", function(childPane) {
        if(childPane.id === "paneEditor"){
          if(!editorWidget){
          var featureLayerInfos = dojo.map(results, function(result) {
            return {'featureLayer':result.layer};
          });

          var layers = dojo.map(results,function(result) {
            return result.layer;
          });

          var settings = {
            map: map,
            geometryService: new esri.tasks.GeometryService("http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/Geometry/GeometryServer"),
            layerInfos:featureLayerInfos
          };

          var params = {settings: settings};
          editorWidget = new esri.dijit.editing.Editor(params,'editorDiv');
          editorWidget.startup();
          }
        }
      });

This works for me initially but then after calling editorWidget.destroy() (from another accordion item click) and back into the create operation, the editor is not visible.

      var accordion = dijit.byId("myAccordionContainer"); 
      dojo.connect(accordion, "selectChild", function(childPane) {
        if(childPane.id === "paneEditor"){
          if(!editorWidget){
          var featureLayerInfos = dojo.map(results, function(result) {
            return {'featureLayer':result.layer};
          });

          var layers = dojo.map(results,function(result) {
            return result.layer;
          });

          var settings = {
            map: map,
            geometryService: new esri.tasks.GeometryService("http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/Geometry/GeometryServer"),
            layerInfos:featureLayerInfos
          };

          var params = {settings: settings};
          editorWidget = new esri.dijit.editing.Editor(params,'editorDiv');
          editorWidget.startup();
          }
        }
      });
