Attribute Editing for multiple layers

[WilliamDonahue]

I was wondering if it was possible to use one attribute editor for multuiple layers. It would streamline my application stream and reduce the file size.

Map doesn't have the Graphics attribute, and the following line fails in yourFeatureLayer_MouseLeftButtonUp event handler:

foreach (Graphic item in Map.Graphics)
     item.Selected = false;

Instead you should get the feature layer firing the event and loop through the collection of graphics in that layer, i.e.

FeatureLayer layer = sender as FeatureLayer;
foreach (Graphic item in layer.Graphics)
     item.Selected = false;
this.Attributes.FeatureLayer = layer;
// And the rest of your code
........

The code you provided appears clear the layer that was currently selected. My app has 3 total featrue layers and what i want to do is clear all the selections from all the layers before the new selection is made. the rest of my code should make the new selection.

Thanks,

In that case in you can do something similar to the following in the MouseLeftButtonUp event handler (before the line "FeatureLayer layer = sender as FeatureLayer;") to clear selection from all "FeatureLayer" layers of your map control:

foreach (Layer layer in MyMap.Layers)
            {
                if (layer is FeatureLayer)
                {
                    foreach (Graphic item in (layer as FeatureLayer).Graphics)
                        item.Selected = false;
                }
            }
