Hi, After being involved in an ArcGIS Runtime SDK for WPF training, several concerns came to me: 1. Was a great surprise, discover that it does not allow to perform linear referencing operations (Dynamic segmentations). This kind of operations are available in ArcObjects. 2. You cannot manipulate the map object to add NEW layers connected to a database....or create layers on the fly and add features an then persist it....unless they are tied to a feature service. 3. from my point of view (correct me if i'm wrong) an application developed under this technology is tied up to previously created content, and that content cannot be modified with the freedom that ArcObjects gave tu us (developers), I mean...if i have a map package...i can add, in my application, other layer, but i cannot persist that addition; as well i can load feature packages...and modify the features inside of it, but i am not able of create those packages from my application, and then add them to the map package. 4. maybe i'm searching in the wrong way, but i cannot find the way (in the product reference) to access to a Feature class in a file geodatabase or personal geodatabase Why to deprecate ArcObjects if they provide such a big opportunity and granularity??? ...

Hi, I found out the way to store elements (of a MapFrame) into Image and load again by using the below codes: void Save (AxPageLayoutControl pageControl) {                 IPersistStream perStream;                 IMemoryBlobStream memoryStream = new MemoryBlobStreamClass();                                IGraphicsContainer graphicsContainer = pageControl.ActiveView.GraphicsContainer;                 graphicsContainer.Reset();                 IElement pElement = graphicsContainer.Next();                 while (pElement != null)                 {                     if (pElement is IMapFrame)                     {                         perStream = (IPersistStream)pElement ;                         perStream.Save(memoryStream, 0);                                                memoryStream.SaveToFile("C:/image.bmp");                         break;                                        }                     pElement = graphicsContainer.Next();                 } } void Load (AxPageLayoutControl pageControl) {             IPersistStream perStream;             IMemoryBlobStream memoryStream = new MemoryBlobStreamClass();             IGraphicsContainer graphicsContainer = pageControl.ActiveView.GraphicsContainer;             graphicsContainer.Reset();             IElement pElement = graphicsContainer.Next();             while (pElement != null)             {                 if (pElement is IMapFrame)                 {                                        memoryStream.LoadFromFile("C:/image.bmp");                     perStream = (IPersistStream)pElement;                     perStream.Load(memoryStream);                     IMapFrame frame = new MapFrameClass();                     frame   = (IMapFrame)perStream;                     pElement = (IElement)frame;                     break;                                    }                                pElement = graphicsContainer.Next();             }             pageControl.ActiveView.PartialRefresh(esriViewDrawPhase.esriViewGraphics, null, null); } But, I am finding a way to convert IPersistStream or IMemoryBlobStream to byte[] (binary format), so I can store in the SQL Server and load it later. Are there anyone know this ? Thanks and regards, this is another kind of situation, I have been struggling with something like that, but i cannot save the map directly into the database, so i first save the map to a file, and then save the file into the database, it was the workaround that i found to solve it. Reading your code, you are trying to save a bitmap of the map (a graphic representation) not the map per se....aren't you? ... View more

Hi Xtian79, I found out another way, please see the link: http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/69207-How-to-store-elements-of-IMap%28IGraphicsContainer%29-as-BinaryData-format-in-SQL?p=245080&viewfull=1#post245080 Kind regards, Hi!!!, in the solution that you propose how do you figure the value of the screen resolution?, or is it just a random value? i trying to export an image to the printer, that information would be useful ...

hi, System.Int32 screenResolution = 30;             System.Int32 outputResolution = 200;             pExport.Resolution = outputResolution;             ESRI.ArcGIS.Display.tagRECT exportRECT;             exportRECT.left = 0;             exportRECT.top = 0;             exportRECT.right = activeView.ExportFrame.right * (outputResolution / screenResolution);             exportRECT.bottom = activeView.ExportFrame.bottom * (outputResolution / screenResolution); how do you figure the screen resolution? ...

In that kind of component, we put the AxTOCControl, in one of my test, the window calls a windows form an inside of it was the AxTOCcontrol, in that try, the behavior was present too.... ... View more

We use the form controls of Devexpress, and extend some of their functionalities. adding properties an behaviors. At this moment, we are using XtraForm (from DevExpress v11). ... View more

Hello fellow, My first suggestion would be to test in a new simple application outside of the complexities of your existing application to try and verify if the behavior is consistent or if it requires part of this complexity to be observed. I tried to reproduce the behavior in an small application, but it was imposible, the component always works great, even extending it as a new class, as you said it maybe required the complexity.....so i said to myself: "you have to get dirty" went up my sleves and started to breaking a part the original application, I was able to repoduce the behavior just having a custom implementation of Devexpress components and ESRI components. For this test please verify that you only bind to Engine and that you only check for an Engine license. As I'm sure you're aware binding and licensing are completely different processes and have completely different roles. Just want to make sure we are on the same page before we dig in more. Yes, the application at the beggining (small change to try another thing...it is in engine now) was only binding to Engine, and the licence process check only for engine license. ... View more

Hi fellow, when some one answer a similar question that i made, with the following inquiry i felt almost offended...but i have to make it: I assume that you make the binding, maybe you are making a binding only to Engine: RuntimeManager.Bind(ProductCode.Engine); try to bind it to Engine or to Desktop: RuntimeManager.Bind(ProductCode.EngineOrDesktop); Another point to review is to check if the client activated the ArcInfo licence....I know...I know...maybe you should chack that...but I have to ask... ok, when this happens?? at the moment fo running the application?  I'm througth something similar but during the execution: http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/68052-Life-cycle-of-an-AxControls-license-missing-in-some-point-of-the-execution in a previous thread we have been discussing that too: http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/48507-After-asking-for-Licence-state-Crash-after-2minutes ...

Hi, basically one way is to draw layer by layer in an image object,  then export it                 private static IDisplay myDisplay;                 private static Image myMapImage;                 Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(myMapImage);                 g.Clear(Color.Transparent);                 myDisplay.StartDrawing(g.GetHdc().ToInt32(), 0);                 for (int i = Map.LayerCount - 1; i >= 0; i--)                 {                     ILayer layer = MapControl.get_Layer(i);                     layer.Draw(esriDrawPhase.esriDPGeography, myDisplay, null);                 }                 myDisplay.FinishDrawing();                 g.ReleaseHdc(); I hope this is helpful for you ...
