eDraw 'Show Measurements' Bug?

JasonStanton__GISP — Thu, 15 Nov 2012 12:55:26 GMT

I am trying to use the eDraw widget (v3.0.2). When I enable show measurements only the point measurements are displaying. Line & polygon measurments are not 'drawn'. The only change I have made is changing the spatialref in the xml to reflect my base map/layers (26986).

I feel like the answer is painfully obvious, and that I will be apologizing for being so stupid, but I have tried a number of things to get this working with no luck.

Any thoughts?

Jason,

All the measurement calculations (unless you want to change those in the XML) are for projections using Meters are the unit of measurement. The easiest solution is to use the UTM projection that covers your area as the WKID and not the State Plane WKID.

Robert,

Thank you for the quick response!

The State Plane WKID is in meters, so that shouldn't be the problem right? Either way I tried your suggestion regarding the UTM projection that covers my area with no luck. It works fine on the standard ESRI draw widget.

The problem isn't that the measurements are wrong, it's that they aren't showing up....does that matter?

Jason,

Did you change your geometryservice url in the eDrawWidget.xml? Are you using ArcGIS Server 10.1?

Re: eDraw 'Show Measurements' Bug?

JasonStanton__GISP — Thu, 15 Nov 2012 14:21:33 GMT

yes (though it didn't work with the esri geometry service either) and yes 10.1 sp1.

Jason,

Can you share your main config.xml?

Jason,

I actually meant the Flex Viewer Main config.xml or just the map section of it.

i accidentally posted the widget config first which must be what you saw, i corrected it almost immediately, but not fast enough i guess.

Jason,

OK, I have fixed it in version 3.0.3 Now available for download.

Robert,

I can't thank you enough for your assistance (again)! I truly appreciate your time!
