I am trying to depict the flow of electrical lines in the ArcGIS for Flex Viewer. I have tried creating the flow arrows on the layer itself and also tried adding it as a separate layer. I am using arrow at the end symbology in ArcGIS for Desktop. But when i add the services into the flex viewer they just show as a solid black line, and dont depict direction. Is there something i am missing? The viewer is version 3.6.
In App Builder when adding operational layers you can do it two ways. It sounds like the way you are going you are drilling down to the specific layer that you want by clicking into the the map service folder and choose the layer. That mean that the layer is added to the map as type "feature" and type feature does not handle advanced cartographic line symbols. If you add the layer as dynamic (just addingthe map service folder) than the rendering is handled by the server and you should get your cartographic line symbols.
Ok I understand. For some reason the App builder is taking the folders as a feature service (FS) and will not let me add them as an entire folder. How ever my manager page is calling them a map service.

I would think this would be an ArcGIS server setting and not handled by the App Builder.
OK that is a different situation. When you publish a service with Feature Access you are publishing a FeatureService. If you publish the map without Feature Access you are publishing a MapService. You can publish a service as both a MS and FS (which I thought was the norm if you enable Feature Access, you would still get the MapService). You need the MapService in order to capitalize on your specific symbology.
So here is a screenshot of one of my ArcGIS Servers. Notice CountyCrimeMap as a (FS) and a (MS).

Hey Robert thanks for your help. I think i have identified the main issue. I am using ArcGIS for Server Basic which only allows for publishing feature services. [ATTACH=CONFIG]31520[/ATTACH] It also seems to not label feature services as well. do you know of a way around this or is upgrading the only solution?
