Gilbert,

I have had a look at your rest endpoint for your services and I do not see an OBJECTID field. Do you have this turned off in your arcmap document. I have found this causes problems if hidden

Just an idea

Regards

Anthony

Gilbert,

Be sure to post Flex Viewer / Widget questions to the flex Viewer forum here:

http://forums.arcgis.com/forums/111-ArcGIS-Viewer-for-Flex

Your issue is simple. You have just mixed up your layers in the XML, and Flex is a case sensitive language.

<?xml version="1.0" ?>

Hello I change for the minuscule,   I clear the cash ON THE SERVER, verified the config of scanedit when I go to HTTP://gis.icao.int/scanedit
The Robert layer police still work, my stuff scan data or reg office still no tooltip????

Note the regional office its a feature layer with Id
The scan data its an event theme layer
I have also under THE SERVICES countryed in the rest an arc SDE express feature layer editable but its not on the map if its needed i can try with that one

Do you think my 2 layers are feature layer do work with your widget???
<layer>
            <name>icao reg office</name>
            <fields>name</fields>

RobertScheitlin__GISP — Sat, 11 Dec 2021 19:09:01 GMT

Gilbert,

You issue is that Flex is a case sensitive language, so when you define the layer names in the FeatureToolip.xml thay have to be the same case as you wrote them in the main config.xml and you need to use the same names!

<?xml version="1.0" ?>

<configuration>
    <layers>
        <layer>
            <name>SCAN DATA</name>
            <fields>name</fields>
            <datefields></datefields>
            <dateformat>MM/DD/YYYY</dateformat>
        </layer>
        <layer>
            <name>SCAN Facilities</name>
            <fields>STATE</fields>
            <datefields></datefields>
            <dateformat>MM/DD/YYYY</dateformat>
        </layer>
        <layer>
            <name>Louisville Zoning</name>
            <fields>ZONING_CODE,ZONING_NAME,ZONING_TYPE</fields>

Ca marche... its working Many thanks Robert for your patience !!!!
Last 2 questions; its impossible to put a link field in that tooltip???

<layer>
             <name>scan data</name>
            <fields>STATE,ENTITY,PROVIDER,FUNDING,ACTIVITY,DATE,CONTACT,GOAL,EMAIL</fields>
             <linkfield>EMAIL</linkfield>
            <datefields></datefields>
            <dateformat>MM/DD/YYYY</dateformat>
        </layer>
Do you think its willbe possible to make like the query tool you make
to see the name of the field in the tooltips???
<layer>http://gis.icao.int/ArcGIS/rest/services/SCAN/MapServer/0</layer>
    <titlefield>STATE</titlefield>
    <linkfield>EMAIL</linkfield>
    <fields all="false">
<field name="STATE"alias="STATE"/>
<field name="ENTITY"alias="ENTITY"/>
<field name="PROVIDER"alias="PROVIDER"/>
<field name="FUNDING"alias="FUNDING"/>
               <field name="ACTIVITY"alias="ACTIVITY"/>
<field name="DATES"alias="DATES"/>
<field name="CONTACT"alias="CONTACT"/>
<field name="GOAL"alias="GOAL"/>
<field name="EMAIL"alias="EMAIL"/>

    </fields>
its possible to put and picture like
<layer>
   <name>scan data</name>
            <fields>STATE,ENTITY,PROVIDER,FUNDING,ACTIVITY,DATE,CONTACT,GOAL,EMAIL,SYMBOL</fields>
   <linkfield>EMAIL</linkfield>
            <datefields></datefields>
            <dateformat>MM/DD/YYYY</dateformat>
        </layer>

Gilbert,

No link in the MapTips is not possible. This widget came out a long time before PopUps in the Flex Viewer. If you want links and alot more flexability than you need to be using PopUps instead.

Thanks to you for all your answerd...

Last question? Do you know why I must mouve the map a littebit to view the tooltip in my http://gis.icao.int/scan
Go to my site its very strange http://gis.icao.int/scan
Do you think its because I put alpha = to 0 and i must wake up the application...
OTHER STRANGE THINK if you try in the http://gis.icao.int/scanedit
the edit with scan (in scanedit) I am not able to see the attachement
and with your example 331 its working in the same services (in scanedit)
What I am missing????
Tank you again for you fast answerd Robert...

Gilbert,

Add mode="snapshot" to your layer element in the main config.xml for each of your layers you are use a FeatureTooltip on. As far as the attachments I don't know whats wrong.

Robert,

I am having the same issue as Gilbert. When I first login to the map, I have to change to pan the map before the map tips start displaying. Here is the XML for my layer that I am trying to display the tips on.

<layer label="Restaurants" type="feature" visible="true" alpha="1" mode="snapshot"
url="http://bleck/rest/services/Economic_Development/MapServer/5"/>
Can you please let me know how to fix this?

Thanks,

Nathan Bell

RobertScheitlin__GISP — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 23:57:44 GMT

Gilbert and Nathan,

I can confirm the behavior that you both are seeing and will see if the Flex API team has an insight into why this is only seeming to happen sporadically with point features. Have either of you noticed this behavior with any other geometry type that points?
