ArcGIS API for JavaScript: How to select features inside a buffer and point selection is not working

HabG_ — Fri, 17 Oct 2014 10:00:03 GMT

Hi All,

I can select features using point, extent, circle and freehand polygon. When I do buffer (e.g. 5 mile radius), I want the selection to include the features inside the buffer zone (at the moment it only selects features in side the polygon). The second issue is when I use the point button to select features it is selecting the polygon features but not the point features (I think I'm supposed to use tolerance but I don't know how). Here is a link to the jsfiddle.

Thanks

You create the buffer but you don't select the features from the featurelayers using that geometry. You're using the geometry obtained from the DrawEnd event instead. You should move that section to the showBuffer
