You are correct, we don't hide the address bar for Android. Apparently, it's a little harder to do this consistently across devices and OS versions as compared to iOS, which we now do. I'll write it up as an enhancement request, however. Thanks, Mike ... View more

The resource center is a great place to start. You might look at the ArcGIS Server help and learn about publishing services. http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisserver/10.0/help/arcgis_server_dotnet_help/index.html This topic about authoring a map for publishing is also useful http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/Map_authoring_considerations_for_ArcGIS_Server/00530000003z000000/ Good Luck, Mike ...

This amount of data is too large to upload and display in its native format. Instead, you need to create a service from your data. Currently, you can use ArcGIS Server to do so. In the near future, you'll be able to purchase a subscription to ArcGIS Online that will allow you to create services hosted in ArcGIS Online. Look here for more information. http://www.esri.com/software/arcgis/arcgisonline/index.html Thanks, Mike ... View more

I looked at that shapefile and you won't be able to add it as a layer to the web map because it's too big. You can only add shapefiles with about 1000 features in it. I don't know exactly how many features are in the shapefile, but it is 15MB in size, which right there is a good indicator it's too big. Probably any file over a few MB in size would be too large. I downloaded a few others and noticed a few things that could trip you up when trying to add then to the web map. I found one zipped shapefile that didn't contain a 'prj' file within it. This is a required file that defines the coordinate system of the shapefile. Zipped shapefiles can have no folder hierarchy inside them. The one you wanted to add had a hierarchy (i.e., the shapefile was contained in a folder inside the zipped archive). I had to extract all the files first then create a new zip file without the hierarchy. So, the likely question you have is how do you display your data over the web map? Currently, you need to host the data using ArcGIS Server. In the near future, Esri will be introducing organizational subscriptions to ArcGIS Online, which will allow you to host your data in our cloud. This is currently in beta testing and scheduled for general release later this year. Here's more info...http://www.esri.com/software/arcgis/arcgisonline/index.html Thanks, Mike ... View more

However, what can one do with it after that? You can download the Service Definition but nothing else unless you have ArcGIS Server, right? So what I'm getting at here is much like how we can currently instantly create a hosted feature service under My Content on ArcGIS online with a Shp or CSV file, it would be even better if we could do this with a Service Definition File. This is how it works with a subscription... When you upload a SD file from desktop with a subscription, you can create a hosted map service and feature service. Once created, these services can be used in web maps or via a direct connection to the service. The tiled map service provides almost the same functionality (except query, dynamic mapping) as a tiled service on your own ArcGIS Server. It's the same with Hosted Feature Services... Mike ...

On my iPhone, the address bar is automatically hidden. I don't recall it always did that. Perhaps it's related to the OS of the device? You might try posting in the iOS or Android forums. Thanks, Mike ... View more

The map making abilities of ArcGIS Online are not really suited to working at the scale of a single building and probably wouldn't be the best tool for your project. Good luck. Mike ... View more

The service has to be externally available in order to generate a legend. Thanks, Mike ... View more

Sorry, no there isn't. You might be able to write a program using the JavaScript API... good luck, Mike ... View more

Eric, There are no plans at this time to support publishing geodatabases. Thanks, Mike ... View more

You simply click on the feature you want to edit. Try for yourself. http://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?services=d9aae60f3d5d41ca93f51d8a07998d05 Thanks, Mike ... View more
