a clusterer property for graphicsLayer and a defaultClusterer that would support basic clustering properties like maxFeatureCount, radius, and color. +1, that would be very nice. Ideally it would work for a featureLayer too. ... View more

var graphic = new esri.Graphic(geometry, symbol); map.graphics.add(graphic); At the very least, I suspect you'll need to add that graphic to a graphicsLayer rather than the map itself. That way you'll have access to the whole layer of graphics, which you may be able to hook up to the agsjs TOC. I haven't used that myself so I'm not sure how, but hopefully this will give you some pointers. ... View more

Peter, You may want to use the ArcGIS Server .Net API, as shown at http://resources.arcgis.com/content/arcgisserver/web-apis Build applications with GIS capabilities using the .NET Web Application Developer Framework (.NET Web ADF). The .NET Web ADF is an AJAX-enabled framework for building Web applications built on ASP .Net AJAX. It includes both server-side and client-side controls and libraries. The client-side JavaScript framework is built on MS-AJAX. Steve ... View more

I wondered if you ever got an answer to this one, or more importantly if you can recall the answer? Sorry, I had no luck with this line of enquiry and moved on to other things. But the new Geocoder digit looks promising and might be a better approach. ... View more

On a Mac I can recommend Espresso. Lots of people use Coda or Sublime Text. On a PC I've previously used the Free JavaScript Editor. It's reasonable considering it's free! I'm not sure about an intellisense plugin for the ArcGIS JS API with any of these products - I prefer to free-type personally. ... View more

I'm not an expert at this stuff, so my terminology may be wrong, but here goes: Re-reading the help file, it seems that this syntax will only work given that the FeatureLayer object is passed into the function which is immediately called by the require: require([   "esri/layers/FeatureLayer", ... ], function(FeatureLayer, ... ) {   var censusBlock = new FeatureLayer(layerUrl, {     showAttribution :false   });   ... }); In the above context, the inner block of the function has a handle on FeatureLayer. I think the new esri.layers.FeatureLayer syntax is correct when used outside of the function, which is what you have in your code, and in my example above too. Good luck, Steve ... View more

Yep sorry, my mistake. I hadn't read the new help file at http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/javascript/arcgis/jsapi/featurelayer-amd.html#FeatureLayer1 which backs up what you're doing in the first example. Having said that, I've used the new esri.layers.FeatureLayer syntax with the new AMD syntax (eg in this sample) and I was able to configure an onMouseOver listener, so I'm not sure what's going on with your code. ...

You're using: var featureLayer = new FeatureLayer('http://maps..... vs var featureLayer = new esri.layers.FeatureLayer('http://maps...... Can you try the latter syntax in the first example? ... View more

Looking forward to reading a few of them. When I attended a few years ago they made recordings (taken from the projector, not using a camera) of all the talks. That's better than just seeing the PDFs - do you know if that was done this year too? As far as I can see, only the plenary sessions are available as videos. Thanks, Steve ... View more

Then how does arcgis.com does it, when you open a dynamic map service in arcgis.com. It shows a layerlist on the left. That means it loads each layer as a synamic layer spaerately? I think ArcGIS.com creates a single dynamicLayer, which contains multiple layerIds. Each layerId is shown as an item in the layer list. What happens if you add your layer to ArcGIS.com - does the polygon correctly show with 60% transparency? ... View more

The only time I would use IE is to make sure the page works in IE. Nothing rings warning bells for a developer like seeing someone on Internet Explorer 7. ... View more
