I am using this great tool and I noticed that on the graphical search when you click to uncheck the "enable multi-part graphics" the search button dissapears. Also, on the xml configuaration file, if you set the <multipartgraphicsearch>false</multipartgraphicsearch>, the "enable multi-part graphics" still appears in the graphical search interface.

Does anyone know or notice this behaviour? I even used the online widget example and the dissappearance of the search button when you deselect the check box, it still occurs. Is that supposed to happen?

Thanks.

Lefteris,

   Yes the button is suppose to disappear as there is no need for it. When you finish drawing then the search is automatically executed. The reason the "enable multi-part graphics" checkbox is still presented (but unchecked) is that there may be a another layer that you want to manually enable the multi-part for.

Thank you Robert. I just didn't realize that after you disable the multi-part you can still invoke the search by drawing. The second issue is an issue of clearing the cach after you change the setting. It does work now. Is there any easy way to clear the cache to view a "fresh" map? I read numerous articles on clearing the cache for IE and Firefox and none of them really works. Other than closing all the browser windows I could not find another way to do so. It would be a very valuable tool to have a script that clears the cache without having to close the browser windows.

Lefteris,

   I use Firefox all the time and occasionally chrome. I have fiddler installed and at the bottom of Firefox there is a fiddler addin bar that I click on and it has a "Clear Firefox Cache" option.
