Attribute table for buffer results from ALL active layers

[LefterisKoumis]

The Attribute widget displays the the fields of ALL layers that are visible and active.
I'm researching a way to use a modified version of this widget, so that when I buffer a polyline or a point, it will capture all the features from all active layers within that buffer and display them on the attirbute table. So, each tab would show the layer with the captured features.

I am aware of the eSearch widget; however you have to select only one layer to query. I???d like to buffer for multiple layers.

Suggestions?

Thank you!

The same question will be posted on the Flexviewer forum.

Lefteris,

   Getting the layer to display  in the attributetable is probably the easiest part of your whole  desired workflow. Are you planning on hardcoding the layers that will  get buffered or just have them defined in a XML configuration file?  There is not a widget out there right now that does your exact workflow  as you probably know. The Point Buffer  Widget might be a good starting point for your development if you are  looking at allowing the user to dynamically draw on the map and have  that buffered (of course it is only designed for points right now but  its a good start). I guess a more detailed workflow would be needed  before I can give more direction.
