Enhanced Search Widget - Change selection color

AshleyPeters — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 15:13:40 GMT

I'd like to change the color of the selected features within Robert's Enhanced Search widget. I've changed the code under the SearchWidget.mxml to be the 'ESRI selection' color instead of the default red.

However, when I run FlashBuilder to test the change, the change is not reflected and the selected features still come back as red.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Ashley

Ashley,

The selection color is controlled by this block in the SearchWidget.xml

    <symbols>         <simplefillsymbol color="0xff0000" alpha="0.5">             <outline color="0xff0000" alpha="0.8" width="2" />         </simplefillsymbol>         <!-- You can have one or the other, either simplemarkersymbol or picturemarkersymbol              defined for your point results NOT BOTH. picturemarkersymbol will override              simplemarkersymbol if you do not have it commented out. -->         <!--<simplemarkersymbol style="square" size="12" color="0xff0000" alpha="0.5"              xoffset="0" yoffset="0" angle="0"> <outline style="solid" color="0x000000"              alpha="1" width="1"/> </simplemarkersymbol> -->         <picturemarkersymbol url="assets/images/i_search.png" height="30" width="30" xoffset="0" yoffset="0" />         <simplelinesymbol color="0xff0000" alpha="0.8" width="2" />     </symbols>
