That property is not on the layer baseclass, but only on ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer and ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer ... View more

Are you seeing smoother animation when you use the mouse, compared to touch? If not, it could just be a performance issue with your graphics card. Especially if you are running your app at fullscreen (1920x1080 I assume), which requires loading a lot more tiles and large images compared to what the iPad would have to do. Also if you have a lot of layers and client side graphics, you are rendering more than you would be doing on the iPad. However if you do see smooth animation when using your mouse, but not touch, it could be your touch device itself. We have quite a few different touch screen devices here for testing, all using different touch technologies (although we don't have the Dell screen you mention). We've seen very different performance with these screens. Some are very flaky with respect to the consistency of the touch points reported, which in turn can make the touch experience less optimal. This is especially the case for the screens that are based on cameras in the corner just like your Dell screen. We also have iPads here and have been comparing the touch experience to our WPF/Silverlight API, and in most cases its very comparable in the "feel" of it. Personally I have Lenovo x201 tablet, and this screens works very well with the WPF API. ... View more

You would have to define your own symbols and renderer from scratch instead of relying on the server provided symbology. In your symbol template you can simply bind the rotate transform to an attibute. Ie: <ControlTemplate>   <Image RenderTransformOrigin=".5,.5" ...etc>      <Image.RenderTransform>         <RotateTransform Angle="{Binding Attributes[Heading]}" />     </Image.RenderTransform>   </Image> </ControlTemplate> ...

Yes that should be fine. In fact the default template that Visual Studio creates, it puts the .xap file in a ClientBin folder below the html page. ... View more

Silverlight 4 comes with built-in APIs for printing, so you don't need to roundtrip to the server. Basically you can print out any control. That control could be either the map, or a custom user control that contains the map, a title etc. ... View more

"It appears that the Editor class is available only in ArcGIS 10. We might have to wait till we get 10." That's not true. Its available only in Silverlight API v2.0. You can still use ArcGIS Server 9.3.x (although you won't be able to edit FeatureLayers, but GraphicsLayers and selection will still be good to go) ... View more

Is you ImageOpened event handler hit? AFAIK in Silverlight the image is not downloaded until the image goes onto the screen (and in this case this doesn't happen until the end of your eventhandler). ... View more

ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Geometry is just a namespace and exists within ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.dll ... View more

The overviewmap is just another map control, so you would have to also clear its layers before clearing out /resetting the extent of the main map. ... View more

You can use the Map.MouseRightButtonUp event instead of the Click event. To get the clickpoint in map coordinates where the click happened, simply do MyMap.ScreenToMap(e.GetPosition(MyMap)) in the eventhandler. ... View more

Since these tiles are coming from a different domain, reading the pixels will be blocked because of security restrictions. If you run your app in full-trust mode, it will work, however that would require the user to run the app in out of browser mode. ... View more

This is unfortunately a limitation of the GeoRSS layer, since data always comes back in lat/long. You could use the layer.Graphics.CollectionChanged event. If the event tells you a feature got added, check it's spatial reference and verify if you need to project it by checking its graphic.Geometry.SpatialReference property. ... View more

For layers whose data is changing, set the DisableClientCaching=true. If you have dynamic layers that contain data that gets edited through a featurelayer, make sure you call Refresh on that dynamic layer after the edit on the featurelayer completes. ... View more

Use the ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Editor class and its "Select" command for selection (or the editorwidget), and only set the editors LayerIDs property to the layer you define as the "active layer". ... View more
