eSearch widget and Dynamic Legend issue

MichelleKinseth — Thu, 17 Jan 2013 21:15:00 GMT

I am using the eSearch Widget (v3.1.4) and the Dynamic Legend v3.1. The viewer opens with a URL selection made in the eSearch Widget, and the Legend shows all the operational layers. If I clear the initial selection and choose a layer to search from the dropdown menu in the eSearch Widget and then make a new selection, the Dynamic Legend redraws the symbology. *see attached images*

[ATTACH=CONFIG]20818[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]20819[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]20820[/ATTACH]

The first image is how the Legend should look, the second is after a new selection is made with eSearch, the third after yet another new selection is made. If I continue to make new selections without refreshing the map, the legend will continue to add the symbology of the layer searched, over and over. What I need is for the Legend to not keep adding the same layer, if it's already there, to the Legend if a search is performed in the eSearch Widget. I can use the "out of the box" legend, but I much prefer the dynamic legend, as it's been much easier to customize the look of.

Help?

(I'm working with the uncompiled code for both widgets.)

Michelle,

Thanks for reporting this bug. I have not looked at the DynamicLegend code much since most are using my TOCWidget. I have addressed the issue and you can find the updated widget here:

***Edit*** There seem to be another issue you should probably hold off until I get that fixed... 😞

Michelle,

Now you can go get version 3.1.2 that fixes the stuff broke in 3.1.1.
