Hey folks, has anyone linked multiple maps together? i.e. two map controls on one page...need to synchronize map extent and selection on both. Just curious if anyone has dealt with this before.
Yes you can do this. Simply use the ExtentChanged/ExtentChanging events to update the extent on the slave map (a very similar approach is used in the magnifiers and overviewmap, which really are just wrapped map controls with a little extra logic around it)
Thanks Morten, that's what I was going to do but was cautious about an infinite loop since I need the user to be able to move around on both maps (i.e. neither would be a slave map). Was thinking about using some flags to get around that unless there's a better way.
