Unfortunately UI has to be rendered on the UI thread, so a background worker wont help. I suggest you watch the performance portion of this session: http://proceedings.esri.com/library/userconf/devsummit10/tech/tech_53.html ... View more

Sounds like a problem with your setup or system. My setup runs very fast. Only long process in the setup is configuring Visual Studio, but that doesn't happen until the very end. ... View more

Replace the combobox with a textbox, add a "search" button and when clicked use the text in the textbox as the input, instead of the selected item in the combobox ... View more

Is you map inside a ScrollViewer? This is not supported, since the scrollviewer intercepts the mouse events needed for panning. ... View more

At the moment, the DataForm lists all fields specified in the Outfields property of your featurelayer. You could opt for not requesting this data. Alternatively, all the dataform really is, is a set of textboxes that binds to the attribute of a selected graphic, so it wouldn't take much to create a custom form. ... View more

Geodesic calculation is only used when using a map with geographic coordinates. For anything else, euclidean calculations are used, so "beware of projection distortion". ... View more

My experience is that it's not the ArcGIS API that's the hard part. It's getting started with and understanding Silverlight. For that I recommend the resources mentioned here: http://www.silverlight.net/getstarted/ Once you "get" Silverlight, our Sample SDK will quickly take you the rest of the way. ... View more

The REST service does not preserve attributes, however it does preserve the order the features were sent in, so its guaranteed that the first feature you used as input will be the first result you get back.

...and you can't change the spatial reference of a map after it's initialized... Actually with v2.0 you can now (you have to clear the layers collection first though) ... View more

Unfortunately this is a bug in VS2010 (it used to be there in Blend 4 as well, but got fixed after we reported it - unfortunately didn't make it for VS2010). You code will still compile and run though. ... View more

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc189078(VS.95).aspx Youtube is probably not an option. They use Flash and not Silverlight. In some cases they use h.264 video streams, so if you can manage to figure out what stream is uses, technically you can point to this. However the stream endpoint constantly changes, specically to keep people from doing this. You are probably better off generating some WMV files and host them yourself. The above link should give you what you need to know. ... View more
