ArcGIS API for Flex v2.3 released today!

[BjornSvensson]

Today we released version 2.3 of both ArcGIS API for Flex and ArcGIS Viewer for Flex.

Among the highlights to both Flex API and Flex Viewer:
* Support for pop-ups in ArcGIS.com web maps.
* Snapping when drawing and editing.
* Continuous pan across date line.
* New pop-up capabilites.
Some of these features were highlighted at the Esri Developer Summit in March, so you might want to check out this video from there.

Check out the What's New (API) in the updated help for the full list of API changes.

Tip: If you don't see the new pages yet, try emptying your browser cache, and/or wait a little for all our web servers to clear their caches...

Or if you're eager to see it, try fooling the caching with:

Bjorn,

   Is that the same for the Flexviewer 2.3 source?.. The Download is still the 2.2 source.

Bjorn, the what's new states that InfoWindow has been moved from com.esri.ags.components.supportClasses.
I think it now sits in com.esri.ags.components, is that correct?

My InfoWindows seems to be all broken now when I use my own InfoWindowRender.
Should I just make a new thread?

The Download is still the 2.2 source.

The source code download is now using 2.3.  Sorry for the late update on that zip file.

Yes, please.

As part of the sparkification of InfoWindow there was quite a few related changes.  A separate thread would be a good idea.

Currently running API for Flex 2.1.  If I update to 2.3 will I have to rebuild and re-add all my widgets to the viewer like I did when I moved from 1.3 to 2.1?

[RobertScheitlin__GISP]

Shawn,

   Yep.

Okay thats not incentive to update Robert lol.  I have things working the way I want right now.
