Identify Tool - Oeder of the Attributes

[ShaningYu]

In the Identufy Tool I used, the attributes are displayed alphabetically.  How can I customize it in desired order.  Thanks.

I'd recommend taking the attributes Object from the feature in question and converting it into an ArrayCollection, upon which you can apply a sort:

var attr:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection();
for(var a:String in feature.attributes)
{
    attr.addItem({attribute: a, value: feature.attributes});
}

var sort:Sort = new Sort();
sort.fields = [ new SortField("attribute") ];
attr.sort = sort;
a...

Then you can use the resulting ArrayCollection as a dataprovider for whatever component you are displaying it in.

Thanks for your response.

If i remember correctly, the 3.0 API should return the fields as they appear in the MXD. You should be able manage this there. (assuming your using AGS 10.1 and Flex API 3.0)
