What does that mean? Can you post a more complete code sample, which allows the problem to be reproduced - perhaps by modifying one of the sample ESRI scripts, or posting a link to your application online ... View more

It is a corrupt mxd that the msd was based on For what it's worth, I've noticed an intermittent problem with that happening, too. I believe it's possibly something to do with exporting from an MXD to an MSD which already exists. I've found the problem doesn't seem to occur as often if I delete the MSD first, then export the MXD - but I haven't been able to reproduce it reliably. Cheers, Steve ... View more

when I try a 20 mile radius I get an instant error 500 response Can you provide the code that you're running? What is the URL which is being called? For example, a query running on a sample ArcGIS service uses: http://sampleserver1.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Demographics/ESRI_Census_USA/MapServer/5/query?text=&geometry=&geometryType=esriGeometryPoint&inSR=&spatialRel=esriSpatialRelIntersects&relationParam=&objectIds=&where=1%3D1&time=&returnCountOnly=false&returnIdsOnly=false&returnGeometry=false&maxAllowableOffset=&outSR=&outFields=&f=html Steve ...

Do you have a link to an online version we could play with? Failing that can you add some screenshots? It's always good to get inspiration on cool map interfaces! ... View more

Hi Kaito, Take a look at toMap(screenPoint) and toScreen(mapPoint) which may help - they convert coordinates between page and map coordinates. You may be able to obtain the map coordinate of the graphic, convert it to page units, offset it, and convert that back to map units. Steve ... View more

var shape = new esri.geometry.Point(somex, somey, new esri.SpatialReference({wkid:4326})); var simpleMarkerSymbol = new esri.symbol.SomeSymbol(-Insert Attributes Here-).setOffset(5,5);    var graphic = new esri.Graphic(shape, simpleMarkerSymbol); I need a way to be able to get the lat long of the graphic post-application of the offset I haven't tested this, but you could try: var long = graphic.geometry.x; var lat = graphic.geometry.y; I'm assuming that the offset only applies to the marker symbol, not to the graphic itself, so the geometry should be unchanged. ...

There is some additional information at the blog posts below - perhaps we could all leave comments to let Esri know what we like/don't like about the new layout; http://resources.arcgis.com/content/resource-center-sneak-peek http://blogs.esri.com/esri/arcgis/2012/02/23/improvements-to-the-resource-center/ http://blogs.esri.com/esri/arcgis/2012/03/02/updating-the-mapping-center-blog/ Edit: I just posted this: Hi Aileen, Please see the forum posts at http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/52022-Where-did-the-ArcGIS-Server-Blog-go where a lot of people are unhappy with the new format. In particular, it is now actually harder to find the information we want, not easier. Since Esri have so many products, it�??s important to be able to filter information by specific product, not just by area. As an example, the Developers page at http://resourcesbeta.arcgis.com/en/communities/developer/doesn�??t have the ability to filter based on the JavaScript API only. Many developers work with only one of the APIs, and it�??s distracting and time-consuming to sort through results from other APIs. From the URL above, try searching on �??feature layer�?�. It�??s (seemingly) impossible to filter only the JavaScript API entries. It�??s actually faster to use Google than to search within the Esri forums. Please feel free to get in touch directly if you�??d like to discuss this further. Thanks, Steve ... View more

accessing the information that is relevant to me is now harder, if not impossible, and the user interface makes extracting the information out of useful posts harder. Unfortunately, each new change to the Esri site seems to follow this pattern... ... View more

Hi, Does anyone know how to view the geoprocessing window in a separate box that comes up, much like 9.3? I have it now where the process runs in the bottom right corner of ArcMap and I'd rather watch the status in a box. Thanks! For the record, this is found under > GeoProcessing > GeoProcessing options in ArcMap/ArcCatalog. ... View more

selectedTaxLot is undefined on this line if (selectedTaxLot.geometry.declaredClass == 'esri.geometry.Point'): var clickedTaxLotId = grid4.getItem(evt.rowIndex).POINT_NAME;             var selectedTaxLot;              var highlightSymbol = new esri.symbol.SimpleMarkerSymbol().setColor(new dojo.Color([25,50,225,0.3]));             dojo.forEach(map.graphics.graphics,function(features){               if((graphic.attributes) && graphic.attributes.POINT_NAME === clickedTaxLotId){                 selectedTaxLot = features; features should be an array, not a single feature, therefore the last line above won't work. Try putting a Firebug breakpoint on the line if((graphic.attributes)... and see the value of features. You probably want to use features[0]. Cheers, Steve ... View more
