AcceleratedDisplay and basic level license

ItamarKcholi — Tue, 09 Oct 2012 20:55:25 GMT

Hi,

It looks like the AcceleratedDisplayLayers\ UseAcceleratedDisplay is only available in the Standard license and not working in the basic license.
Is this true or due to a bug?

Thanks,
Itamar

Hi,

The accelerated display should work with just a basic license. Can you provide some more details about what you've tried?

- Where are you making the SetLicense call?
- Is your application using a deployment or the central developer runtime?
- What layers are you initializing?

Cheers

Mike

Mike hi,

Thanks for the reply,
1) I am in talks with my local Esri support for basic license key issues
2) When i am in a deployment it does not work and on my development machine (where the end runtime is installed it is working)
3) I am using TPK layer and graphics layers.

I assume this is related to the key issues.

Thanks,
Itamar

Hi,

Have you created the Deployement Package of ArcGIS Runtime and it is copied with the executable?

If not, see how to create it at http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/runtime-wpf/concepts/index.html#/Creating_a_runtime_deployment/01700000005m000000/

Hello,
Was there a resolution to this issue? I'm having a similar problem. I have deployed a simple WPF application to a Windows 7 test machine. The application loads an ArcGIS Online tiled map layer, and sets the UseAcceleratedDisplay property on the map to TRUE. When the property is set to TRUE the application crashes, but when set to FALSE it loads the map successfully. The error I get is 'Failed to create Accelerated Display. Please check the display hardware and drivers meet the minimum requirements. Where can I find these minimum requirements?
Thanks!
Jen

Hi,

The system requirements are posted here:

10.1.1: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/system-requirements/10.1/#/ArcGIS_Runtime_SDK_10_1_1_for_WPF/015100000092000000/

1.0: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/system-requirements/10.1/#/ArcGIS_Runtime_SDK_1_0_for_WPF/01510000008s000000/

The deployment machine needs a graphics card with:
#. Dedicated chipset (NVidia or ATI recommended).
#. Support for DirectX 9
#. Good amount of memory (ideally >512MB)
#. Shader Model 2.0 or greater
#. Latest drivers (try laptop/desktop vendor for approved drivers or check with graphics card vendor)

Cheers

Mike

Is there a way to test for these capabilities before creating the map?

Since much development of my application occurs in a VM without 3d capability it would be nice to enable/disable accelerated display during execution. In fact before I got this error I had already planned to disable it with the debugger attached as there were warnings about it performing poorly in that case.
