Help with Widget

Robert,

Can you take a quick look at this. I think I’m close. Here is what the widget is supposed to do. User enters Corridor route and offset and it simply returns a point. When I debug it, it returns “function expected TypeError: Function expected.

Terry,

As this is a whole new widget I branched this into a new Question (as you should have done).

I’m sorry I should have started a new post.. I changed the following removed the LocPoint =new Point and the mp = with the following

mp = ;

Terry,

You Started with the wrong widget as your starting point. You should have started with the CreateRouteSegment widget. Attached is some changes with comments.

Robert,

I’m close now. Just can’t see why it’s not plotting the point. I created the var point symbol to create the be SimpleMarkerSymbol

Terry,

Did you set the GP out spatial reference to be the maps?

this.gp.setOutSpatialReference(this.map.spatialReference);

Re: Help with Widget

TerryGustafson — Wed, 16 Sep 2015 16:24:31 GMT

Yes I added this.. this.gp.setOutSpatialReference(this.map.spatialReference); It creates the point and seems to zoom to an extent.. just does not create a graphic..

Terry,

You are trying to use the same constructor option you used for a SimpleLineSymbol for the SimpleMarkerSymbol and they are not the same.

Look at the doc for the proper constructor options for SimpleMarkerSymbol

Terry,

Is your linter not showing an issue on line 108, 109 and 114? Try adding a comma at the end of 108.

I was looking at this page in the api. Should I be looking at something else?

What does that link have to do with the constructor options for the SimpleMarkerSymbol?.. Try the link I posted above.

I get the linter remark as to where to click.... when the question is answered there is usually a green icon that says mark question answered.. I don’t see that..
