eTIME Widget Layer not displaying correctly

[AayushKumar]

I am using eTime widget to show buildings that were created and razed based on Year.

Even though I have not checked on 'Display data cumulatively', yet, all the data is displayed cumulatively when I am using eTime Widget. for your reference I am pasting the main config file:
http://arcgis.library.tamu.edu/flexviewer/V1.1_Prerelease/

<operationallayers>    <layer label="Buildings" type="feature" visible="true" alpha="1"         info="widgets/InfoTemplates/AttRelateInfoWinWidget.swf"     url="http://arcgis.library.tamu.edu/ArcGIS/rest/services/HistoricAggieland/Centroid_2012_04_18/MapServer/0"       infoconfig="widgets/InfoTemplates/IWT_Cameras.xml" usetime="true" />     </operationallayers>

and the widget config file

<?xml version="1.0" ?> <configuration>  <autotogglelayervisibility>true</autotogglelayervisibility>  <layers>   <layer label="Buildings" name="Buildings">    <dateformat>YYYY/MM/DD</dateformat>          <loop>false</loop>       <singlethumbastimeinstant>false</singlethumbastimeinstant>       <thumbcount>1</thumbcount>       <thumbmovingrate>1000</thumbmovingrate>       <timeextent setfromlayer="Buildings"/>    </layer>     </layers> </configuration>

Also, I am using Date datatype to start and end times for the buildings. If I use ArcMap's time slider to test the layer's working, it works perfectly. But while using the same thing on viewer for flex, it shows data cumulatively

Can you please tell me the plausible causes for the data still showing cumulatively?

Greatly appreciate your time and help

Aayush,

   If you don't want the data to be cumulatively then you have to set the singlethumstimeinstant to true.

Don't forget to click the Mark as answer check on this post and to click the top arrow (promote) as shown below:

Thank you sir. That worked.  I did not understand the meaning of that tag

the documentation says

<singlethumbastimeinstant> - This sets the time extent value for a thumbcount. Boolean value. If true and thumbCount is 1, then the timeExtent will represent a time instant (default is "false").

May be you could elaborate on it to help me and other people who may encounter the problem

Is there a way to have it display ALL of the time features after the time sequence has finished?

I don't want it to be cumulative, and only want to see the polygons by year.  However, after it "finishes" the time sequence, would like to display ALL of the features.

Thanks for any help,
