Identify Widget 2.2.2 Fields are not being displayed

MatthewStarr — Sat, 11 Dec 2021 08:47:29 GMT

Identify Widget 2.2.2 for Flex 2.2 using AGS9.3.1

I am having a problem displaying any field in the identify pop up that i have defined in the XML. other feature such as "parcels" that are visible but not defined specifically ARE displayed.
http://71.176.110.94/survey/index.html

Which leads me to believe user error is involved here. As you can see I am trying to avoid having the whole URL in the link field in the GDB however I cannot get any field to display. The Name does display correctly for the feature layer clicked so i believe it is 'seeing' the layer, just not the fields. I have tried converting the data to shapefile, as is the case with NGS and Parcels, but GRS remains a file GDB.

any thoughts would be welcome. thanks in advance Robert.

Matt,

I see an syntax error in your main config.xml

<layer label="Parcels" type="feature" visible="true" alpha="1"

Re: Identify Widget 2.2.2 Fields are not being displayed

MatthewStarr — Thu, 10 Mar 2011 01:33:10 GMT

Robert again thank you. what XML editor do you use/recommend? I should not have missed that.

Re: Identify Widget 2.2.2 Fields are not being displayed

RobertScheitlin__GISP — Thu, 10 Mar 2011 02:37:00 GMT

Matt,

I just use notepad for the editing and use internet explorer to validate the xml because IE is really good at fussing about syntax.

Re: Identify Widget 2.2.2 Fields are not being displayed

MatthewStarr — Thu, 10 Mar 2011 12:06:57 GMT

That doesn't seem to effect the identify functionality.. it is for the info popup. I will comb over my other mark up for similar syntax errors

Re: Identify Widget 2.2.2 Fields are not being displayed

JonFisher — Thu, 10 Mar 2011 19:06:09 GMT

Robert again thank you. what XML editor do you use/recommend? I should not have missed that.

I have to put in a HUGE recommendation for Notepad++. Not only does it color different elements for you (e.g. tags in blue, attributes in red, attribute values in purple, comments in green) which makes syntax errors much easier to spot, it just has an enormous library of bonus functionality (comparing two documents, tracking changes, search and replace across multiple files in a common directory,etc.)

You can get it from http://notepad-plus-plus.org/

I really can't recommend it highly enough. I was a notepad man for years, but this software changed my life. Plus, I really like that they accept donations but 100% of the money just goes to charity to inspire them. And no, I am in no way involved with the development or the team 😉

Matt,

Can you screen shot what you are seeing in the identify widgets results and info window?

Re: Identify Widget 2.2.2 Fields are not being displayed

MatthewStarr — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 15:10:15 GMT

I removed the info attributes. cleared the Rest cache, cleared the Flex Cache and cleared the browser cache and for the Control Points I still only get the layer name in the identify results window. For the parcels, which are not defined in the identify widget.xml i get all the fields. I must be messing up the identify.xml I am just not connecting the problem.

Robert, Are you getting getting the Control Point fields to display? including the link?

If SO maybe I have not cleared out the caches properly...

Matt

Re: Identify Widget 2.2.2 Fields are not being displayed

RobertScheitlin__GISP — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 16:02:44 GMT

Matt,

I took your config.xml and your IdentifyWidget.xml and plugged them into my flex viewer and I do get results.

Re: Identify Widget 2.2.2 Fields are not being displayed

MatthewStarr — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 16:11:39 GMT

Looks perfect. I will rebuild it in a blank viewer thank you for your help

Re: Identify Widget 2.2.2 Fields are not being displayed

RobertScheitlin__GISP — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 17:58:18 GMT

All,

A new version of the identify widget is now available.

* 2.2.3 - Identify by point/line/extent/polygon are all now supported
- Info window will appear at the center of identified geometry now if returngeometryforzoom is set to true in xml file.
if returngeometryforzoom is true, when you mouse over a record the geometry for that particular record is drawn using the symbology defined in the xml
- The symbology used by the draw tools is now user defined in the xml
- Fixed an issues with link icon if prefix or suffix is supplied and a empty field.
