Coordinate Menu Widget - New !

[Drew]

Hello Everyone,
I created a new widget that you might find useful.
Tucked away in the map context menu are three XY operations

   1.     Copy XY
   2.     Project XY (configurable)
   3.     Go To XY

ReadMe.txt included

Hope you find it useful!

UPDATE: Viewer 2.5 version now available for download.

Excellent widget Drew. I'm using the 2.5 version and somehow I'm getting the same value for X and Y in the "Live Coordinates". Is there a way to remove that feature since live coordinates are provided within Flex Viewer? Otherwise the widget works wonderfully and it's very handy.

Cheers,

Hakim

There is a typo in the CoordinateMenuWidget_GUI.mxml. if you have uncompiled you can change this:

  <s:Label fontWeight="bold" text="Live Coordinates"/>
  <s:HGroup width="100%" color="#C4C4C4" fontSize="10">
   <mx:Label fontWeight="bold" text="X:"/><mx:Label width="100%"
            text="{this.mouseMoveMapPoint.x.toFixed(helper.precision)}"/>
   <mx:Label fontWeight="bold" text="Y:"/>
   <mx:Label width="100%" text="{this.mouseMoveMapPoint.y.toFixed(helper.precision)}"/>
  </s:HGroup>

If you comment out that entire section, it removes it from the GUI.

That was a big mistake on my part guys. Thanks for posting the error and for providing a fix!

I have updated the 2.5 - 3.0 source and compiled versions on the widgets page.

Thanks again.

I cannot make the new definition of ETRS 1989 GK21FIN work. It came with ArcGIS version 10.1. wkid=3875.
The older definition wkid=3128 works.
What's wrong? Should I use my own GeometryService?

ArcGIS Server 10.1, Flew Viewer 3.0.

If it's new in 10.1 then you will want to ensure that you are using a 10.1 Geometry service.
The default service I have specified in the config is probably 10.0. Either change it to use your geometry service or you can use ESRI's 10.1

Either of these worked!
Is there anything special about creating your own geometry service.
I just created it with Manager and copied the path to config.xml strating with "http://localhost:6080/arcgis..."

Dear Colleagues;

Im using the widget customized with success. The litte customizations I've made was translating to Brazilian Portuguese and change some icons, comment some parts (specific tools likely confuse for a very lay users), etc. But I have an issue: the "Live Coordinates" section in the UI show only X values in both x and Y field. And more, the coordinates are in WebMercator metric system and i want to show it in WGS84, DD.DDDD format. Is it Possible? What could be wrong with the displayed coordinates (X= {x values} / Y= {x values}) ????

Thanks in advance.

This has been discussed in the thread, see above. Draw corrected the source code, either download the zip file again or follow rzufelt's correction to fixed the typo in the source.
