I trying to use the custom identify tool with my layers and the tool just ignores their entries in the xml file. I am using the identifywidget.xml file that Robert provided with his tool and I included my layer as a test. When I zoom to the area of my layer the identify tool cannot find anything! When I zoom in the area of the layers that were originaly in the xml file the identify tool works!
Any suggestions?

Attached is the xml file. My layer is the second listed. I already checked the field names for mispellings or similar errors but nada.

Thanks.

Lefteris,

   Using the exact XML you provided I had no Issue. Do you have the layer visible in the map?

That's bizarre.

The layer is visible.

in the main config file the layer is identified as"

<layer label="Agencies" type="dynamic" visible="true"
                   url="http://svctenvims.dot.ca.gov/dea_web_gis/rest/services/agencies/agencies/MapServer/">

and the MPO is layer id=0

see screenshot.

Thank you.[ATTACH=CONFIG]23061[/ATTACH]

Robert, this is a great tool, thanks for building, upgrading and maintaining it.  I'm using Flex Viewer 3.3 and just recently upgraded the Identify Widget to 3.3.2. Ever since this update the Identify tool is not returning any values.  I think the problem is occurring because the Identify Pop-up dialog box is not recognizing my clicks to highlight the Point, Line, or Polygon selection tools.  Has anyone else come across this?  I've searched the forum but could not come up with a fix.  Thanks!

Michael,

   No one elese has reported an issue like this... When you say you upgraded to 3.3.2, can you eloborate? Are you using app builder, the compiled version, or the uncompiled? What version were you running before 3.3.2?

Guys,

   I will be releasing a 3.4 version (hopefully in a week or two) of the widget that has full application builder integration (this means I can eliminate user xml configuration errors). All I can say is you have an issue in your configuration of the widget as I don't have any issue getting it to work.

Thank you Robert, but I don't think it is a xml issue. I already posted the xml for the widget and for the main config (under a similar forum post) and there was nothing wrong with them. I will look into other possible reasons.
