How to Filter Silverlight Esri Map Web Part

[RowlandAgidee]

Hello All,

Please can anyone provide guidance on how to filter a silverlight map web part in Sharepoint 2010?

I have got the list data on the map ok but I am struggling with filtering the data, it seems like web part communication is only available for the JavaScript-based map web part. Is my understanding of this correct and if yes how do I filter

Many thanks

Rowland

Hi Rowland,

You need to make sure that you are using an ArcGIS Server feature service in your map to enable the filter functionality in the Silverlight based ArcGIS Map Web Part.

You can't do it on SharePoint lists or ArcGIS Server map services.  This tricked me up since I couldn't get filtering to work until I enabled my ArcGIS Server map service with feature access.  This part of the help details how filtering is done with an ArcGIS Server feature service:
