Font changes in Title

MaudGillespie — Thu, 21 Jun 2012 18:24:27 GMT

I am trying to change the font type and size in the config.xml for the flexviewer. I am not having any results, I have posted my titlefont tag below. What am I missing?

<title>ArcGIS Viewer for Flex</title>
    <logo>assets/images/logo.png</logo>
    <style>
        <colors>0xFFFFFF,0x1C419A,0x101010,0x000000,0xFFFFFF</colors>
<titlefont>Gill Sans MT,80</titlefont>
        <alpha>0.8</alpha>
    </style>

I will answer my own question, see what worked below, I was also able to customize the subtitle

<title>ArcGIS Viewer for Flex</title>
<subtitle>Subtitle to AGVF</subtitle>
<logo>assets/images/logo.png</logo>
<style>
      <colors>0xFFFFFF,0x1C419A,0x101010,0x000000,0xFFFFFF</colors>
      <titlefont name="Gill Sans MT" size="18"/>
      <subtitlefont name="Gill Sans MT" size="12"/>
      <alpha>0.8</alpha>
</style>

Thanks for pointing this out. The Viewer documentation is currently being revamped with new/more content. This was not initially added but should be. We'll make certain to add this information to avoid anymore confusion.

Thanks.

I am trying to change the font weight to bold in my pop up, and perhaps later the font and size and such. I placed "<descriptionfont fontweight="bold"/>" this code line in, but none of the upper case lettering is changing (the name of the fields which I manually typed in to appear the way I want since this is located in a pop up. I tried the identify but it requires you to select either a point line or polygon each time you make a new selection, and I just wanted to be able to interactively just click on points for Identification and the pop up seemed most simplified. Anyways, I also put the code line into the main config file where the intial posting person named 198697 had put it, and it still did not work. Any where else I should be looking at?

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<configuration>
    <title>Vehicle {UnitName}</title>
    <description><![CDATA[IGNITION STATUS:    {IgnitionText}

DATE:      {Date_Time}
<format datefomat="shortDateShortTime"/>

LOCATION: {Address}, {City} {Zip}

DIR: {Dir}      SPEED: {Speed}     MILES:   {Miles}

<descriptionfont fontweight="bold"/>
]]></description>
</configuration>

Lynn,

Within the CDATA tag you can use normal HTML formatting so to make text bold use:

<b>Tags around text</b>

See:
