Hi,
Hopefully someone has a best solution to my problem. My task is simple; I want to display annotation in the flex viewer app. The problem is there doesn't seem to be an easy way.
If i use the coverage annotation in the .mxd, then create the map service; this would be ideal. However, flex doesn't want to display the annotation. To me this is the best solution, because the placement of the anno is correctly held.
My frustration is converting the annotation coverage to either a .shp, sde, or a personal gdb, which the flex app will recognize. We i perform the conversions, I'll either lose the correct placement of some of the annotation or some of the annotation doesn't convert at all. I've tried converting to a line and pt shp file, but keep getting undesirable results.
Am I missing something, or is the annotation a problem for others.
Thanx,
Eddie
