Hi I am trying to use control button to select and unselect features.could not get un

MuralidharMoka — Wed, 09 Mar 2011 12:56:30 GMT

Hi,
I wanted to achieve all the functionality of selection/Unselection of feature by holding ctrl key.
Just like how we do for files in windows explorer. I got every thing but could not get the
Unselection of the graphic, when I click on the selected graphic. Can any one help me on this.
Here is my completed code both XAML and code behind.

I don't see any code selecting the graphics!

Check also your symbology. To make a difference between a selected graphic and a unselected graphic, your symbols must react to the 'SelectionStates'.

See sample : http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#SelectGraphics

You can also look at the following SDK sample: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#FeatureLayerSelection

The Keyboard button distinguishes selection base on key press. Ctrl key for adding to selection, Shift key for removing from selection and any or no key for new selection.

You can also change this selection behavior on key press by subscribing to KeyDown event and activating Select command programmatically.

void FeatureLayerSelection_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Input.KeyEventArgs e)
{
 if (e.Key == System.Windows.Input.Key.S)
 {
  Editor editor = this.LayoutRoot.Resources["MyEditor"] as Editor;
  if (editor != null && editor.Select.CanExecute("new"))
   editor.Select.Execute("new");
 }
}
