Melissa, This extent finder application for flex displays a lat/long read out that you can use to gather the coords you need, http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapps/flexviewer/extenthelper/flexviewer_extenthelper.html Its a shame that the extent is only shown in web mercator and not geographics Regards Anthony ...

Kevin, Not that I am an expert in python but looking at the help file for Calculate Field the syntax is: CalculateField_management (in_table, field, expression, {expression_type}, {code_block}) so if uniqueid is a variable have you tried: arcpy.CalculateField_management("in_memory/buffer", "GP_ID",uniqueid,"PYTHON") or if uniqueid is a field name arcpy.CalculateField_management("in_memory/buffer", "GP_ID", "!uniqueid!","PYTHON") Regards Anthony ...

Kevin, Using Server 9.3.1 you have to change the Expression Type parameter to 'PYTHON_9.3'. For the calculate field to work. http://support.esri.com/en/knowledgebase/techarticles/detail/36571 Not sure if this is still the case with 10.1, but worth looking at Regards Anthony ... View more

Erik, The application builder allows users to configure their own version of an application without manually changing .xml config files. You cannot take the output from this and put it into flex builder to create mobile applications. You will need to use the source code and api to build an application in flex builder, but I would guess trying to convert the code for mobile devices is not for a beginner. Some help can be found here: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-api/concepts/index.html#/Mobile_applications_with_Flex/017p00000025000000/ I would suggest going down some of the routes Bjorn mentioned in reply to one of your other posts: http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/70008-Confused-need-suggestions-on-best-way-to-consume-my-flex-builder-maps?p=244604&posted=1#post244604 Regards Anthony ...

Robert, Quite correct, I meant <layers onlythese="true"> I think I just picked up on something further up the thread and didn't check. Sorry for any confusion Nadeem, Regards Anthony ... View more

Nadeem, I published your data using 9.3.1 on our server and tested the identify widget which returned no result. Using firebug in Firefox I examined the request that was getting sent and the response. It seems that the server does not like the spatial reference details that it is being sent and is returning an error. The solution I found was to put the attribute wkid="29900" in the map tag in the main config file to force the application to use the correct spatial reference. All I had set in the identify tool was excludebasemaps set to false and <fields all="true" />. This returned the correct pixel value. I must add this was done with v2.5 and server 9.3.1 Regards Anthony ... View more

Kevin You would want to use: Right([fieldname],Len[fieldname] - 7) Regards Anthony ... View more

Klimatas, A .ovr file contains pyramid files for raster datasets, these are reduced resolution copies of the original raster file that lets it be viewed quicker in ArcMap. To view you still need the original raster file. Have a look at this help page: http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#//009t00000026000000 Regards Anthony ... View more

Nadeem, How big is the file? If it is small enough to email then by all means send it to me, my email address is the same as my username for this forum. I will not be able to look at it till later next week though. Regards Anthony ... View more

Ionara, The scale bar has a lengthMetric and a lengthUS property that you can specify: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-api/apiref/index.html?com/esri/ags/components/ScaleBar.html&com/esri/ags/components/class-list.html I have not tried it but it may provide the solution your are after Regards Anthony ...

Nadeem, I have published elevation data in the exact same way in which you are publishing your data. I found that although the alias in the REST endpoint for the pixel value says Value it actually returns as 'Pixel value' so the layers tag looks like this: <layer> <name>DTED2</name> <fields> <field alias="Height" name="Pixel Value" /> </fields> ....... </layer> Are your field names an exact match to the Alias field in the REST endpoint? Is your service publicly available so we can look at it Regards Anthony ... View more

Nadeem, Have you added your layer as a basemap or operational layer? If it is a basemap make sure you have changed the tag called excludebasemaps to false Regards Anthony ... View more

Nadeem, Robert has included a PDF document in the download that explains how to set up the widget. Regards Anthony ... View more
