Gilbert,

You issue is that Flex is a case sensitive language, so when you define the layer names in the FeatureToolip.xml thay have to be the same case as you wrote them in the main config.xml and you need to use the same names!

<?xml version="1.0" ?>

<configuration>
    <layers>
        <layer>
            <name>SCAN DATA</name>
            <fields>name</fields>
            <datefields></datefields>
            <dateformat>MM/DD/YYYY</dateformat>
        </layer>
        <layer>
            <name>SCAN Facilities</name>
            <fields>STATE</fields>
            <datefields></datefields>
            <dateformat>MM/DD/YYYY</dateformat>
        </layer>
        <layer>
            <name>Louisville Zoning</name>
            <fields>ZONING_CODE,ZONING_NAME,ZONING_TYPE</fields>
            <datefields></datefields>
            <dateformat>MM/DD/YYYY</dateformat>
        </layer>
        <layer>
            <name>Louisville Police Facilities</name>
               <fields>PD_NAME</fields>
               <datefields></datefields>
               <dateformat>MM/DD/YYYY</dateformat>
        </layer>
        <layer>
            <name>Louisville Traffic Cameras</name>
               <fields>DESCRIPTION</fields>
               <datefields>LAST_UPDATED</datefields>
               <dateformat>MM/DD/YYYY</dateformat>
        </layer>
    </layers>
    <!-- The length of time, in milliseconds, that Flex waits to hide the ToolTip box after it appears. -->
    <!-- This setting affects all tooltips in the application so use with caution -->
    <hidedelay>3000</hidedelay>
</configuration>

Ca marche... its working Many thanks Robert for your patience !!!!
Last 2 questions; its impossible to put a link field in that tooltip???

<layer>
             <name>scan data</name>
            <fields>STATE,ENTITY,PROVIDER,FUNDING,ACTIVITY,DATE,CONTACT,GOAL,EMAIL</fields>
             <linkfield>EMAIL</linkfield>
            <datefields></datefields>
            <dateformat>MM/DD/YYYY</dateformat>
        </layer>
Do you think its willbe possible to make like the query tool you make
to see the name of the field in the tooltips???
<layer>http://gis.icao.int/ArcGIS/rest/services/SCAN/MapServer/0</layer>
    <titlefield>STATE</titlefield>
    <linkfield>EMAIL</linkfield>
    <fields all="false">
<field name="STATE"alias="STATE"/>
<field name="ENTITY"alias="ENTITY"/>
<field name="PROVIDER"alias="PROVIDER"/>
<field name="FUNDING"alias="FUNDING"/>
               <field name="ACTIVITY"alias="ACTIVITY"/>
<field name="DATES"alias="DATES"/>
<field name="CONTACT"alias="CONTACT"/>
<field name="GOAL"alias="GOAL"/>
<field name="EMAIL"alias="EMAIL"/>

    </fields>
its possible to put and picture like
<layer>
   <name>scan data</name>
            <fields>STATE,ENTITY,PROVIDER,FUNDING,ACTIVITY,DATE,CONTACT,GOAL,EMAIL,SYMBOL</fields>
   <linkfield>EMAIL</linkfield>
            <datefields></datefields>
            <dateformat>MM/DD/YYYY</dateformat>
        </layer>
Go to india New deli in the map look the tool tip in http://gis.icao.int/scanedit   (you help the guys of Texas to do that with 2.2 FLEX tooltip with picture...)
where symbol is equal to http://gis.icao.int/SCANEDIT/assets/images/i_hydro.png in my ArcMap with url link activate... its work before in 1.3 flex????

Gilbert,

No link in the MapTips is not possible. This widget came out a long time before PopUps in the Flex Viewer. If you want links and alot more flexability than you need to be using PopUps instead.

Nope, I don't have any intention on enhancing this widget now or in the future to support images.

Thanks to you for all your answerd...

Last question? Do you know why I must mouve the map a littebit to view the tooltip in my http://gis.icao.int/scan
Go to my site its very strange http://gis.icao.int/scan
Do you think its because I put alpha = to 0 and i must wake up the application...
OTHER STRANGE THINK if you try in the http://gis.icao.int/scanedit
the edit with scan (in scanedit) I am not able to see the attachement
and with your example 331 its working in the same services (in scanedit)
What I am missing????
Tank you again for you fast answerd Robert...

Gilbert,

Add mode="snapshot" to your layer element in the main config.xml for each of your layers you are use a FeatureTooltip on. As far as the attachments I don't know whats wrong.

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

Robert,

I am having the same issue as Gilbert. When I first login to the map, I have to change to pan the map before the map tips start displaying. Here is the XML for my layer that I am trying to display the tips on.

<layer label="Restaurants" type="feature" visible="true" alpha="1" mode="snapshot"
url="http://bleck/rest/services/Economic_Development/MapServer/5"/>
Can you please let me know how to fix this?

Thanks,

Nathan Bell

RobertScheitlin__GISP · ‎03-22-2012

Gilbert and Nathan,

I can confirm the behavior that you both are seeing and will see if the Flex API team has an insight into why this is only seeming to happen sporadically with point features. Have either of you noticed this behavior with any other geometry type that points?
