Enhanced Search Widget for FlexViewer 2.1

[RobertScheitlin__GISP]

All Here is my next widget in the FlexViewer 2.1 series

Special thanks to Erwan Caradec for contributing to this code.

The Enhanced Search Widget extends the standard search widget with a floating data grid and a new spatial query w/buffering.

Robert,
I'd like to implement functionality in this widget so the user can input an address, and I will run a geoprocessing buffer on the address they input, and then create a report for their input address. Can you provide me any guidance for this?
Workflow as follows:
1. User inputs address
2. Geocode address and pass those X,Y coordinates to a buffer function.
3. Use the buffer to analyze what is in the buffer such as parcels that intersect the buffer and create a report showing all parcels intersecting the 100 foot buffer.

I see I can use your buffer widget as input to the eSearch for a graphical search, but I'd like to minimize the steps so the user just inputs and address, and it zooms to the predefined buffer distance and pops up with a report.

M Lowry,

   Currently there is nothing that it configurable to match your workflow.

Hi Robert,

I know you are probably not looking at the ability to concatenate fields in the linkfield in order to pass multiple parameters to a url. I was wondering if this is something I could add in the uncompiled version and if so, where in the code I would start?

I appreciate it!!

Thanks:D

Emily,

   I have looked at your request a couple of times now and it is just a very complicated capability you are asking for. Every time I think I have time to look at request I quickly determine that I just don't have that amount of time to invest in it. It is still on the enhancement request list but is level of effort is so high I am not sure when and if I will get to it.

Robert,
I have downloaded the latest version of this tool and was wondering if its possible to remove the "Related Results" part of the datagrid?  If so, what part would I "hide" in the code?

Thanks for you help!
Harry

Okay, Robert. Thanks for letting me know, I will look at other options. I completely understand and am sure your plate is full enough.

Thanks again!!

Harry,

   Hmm... I guess you could just set that NavigatorContents visibility to false.

<s:NavigatorContent label="Relate Results" width="100%" height="100%" backgroundColor="{getStyle('chromeColor')}" backgroundAlpha="{getStyle('backgroundAlpha')}" visible="false">

Robert,
Would I add that to the config.xml ro the searchwidget.xml?  Also, does it matter I'm using the compiled version?

[RobertScheitlin__GISP]

Harry,

   There is no disabling the relates tab if you are using the compiled version.

Robert,

Is there any way to change the position of the Search Results window to open in the bottom left of the application so it is not covering the map when it opens?
