Hi Chad, Is it possible to configure the editor so that editors can only see their edits? This functionality is available with ArcGIS for Server 10.1 feature services, which includes ownership-based access control. Unfortunately, the current release of the Silverlight Viewer v1.0.1 does not support this capability. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Edward, What is the proper way to upgrade to silverlight 3.0 and use the Viewer template... FYI, the ArcGIS Viewer for Silverlight is built and compiled on the v2.4 release of the ArcGIS API for Silverlight. It currently does not work with the v3.0 Silverlight API release. We are planning an update for the Silverlight Viewer based on the v3.0 Silverlight API in the 3rd quarter of 2012. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Einar and Devon, Apologies for the late reply to this thread, I have been away on business travel in recent weeks. The Silverlight Viewer Dev team investigated your issues: #1 - Toolbars failed to load entirely in Firefox and Chrome when a custom tool is included. It appears that there is an erroneous line of code in the default add-in.  In the LoadConfiguration method of MyTool.cs, line 37 is: [INDENT]configDialog.InputTextBox.Text = configData;[/INDENT] The problem is that, by default, configData is null, and you cannot assign a null value to the Text property of a TextBox.  In IE, the the exception is handled gracefully and the tool loads anyway. But for some reason, it crashes the whole toolbar in Firefox and Chrome. Unfortunately, the browser was swallowing the exception, which made it difficult to track down. The fix is to simply change the line to the following: [INDENT] configDialog.InputTextBox.Text = configData ?? "";[/INDENT] This just sets the text value to an empty string if configData is null. #2 - The Time Slider and Measure add-ins would not load in IE, but other tools loaded without issue. We were not able to reproduce this issue. Please open a ticket with Esri Technical Support so they can look into this further. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Steve, 1. Can we use any version for editing with feature service in ArcGIS Server/Web api or just the default version? A1. Yes, you can use any version you want with ArcGIS Server feature services. 2. If we can use any version other than default version, then should we reconcile and post the edits to the default version after making the edits from ArcGIS Server/Web api. A2. Correct. You would treat the version being edited via the web (with feature services), like any other edit version in your business workflow. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Steve, ... Do I need to reconcile and post or will the edits get saved in the particular version in which I publish service? The latter part of your statement is correct: when you perform web editing with feature services in ArcGIS Server, the edits you make will get saved into the particular version that was being accessed by the map service, when you published it. FYI at 10.1, I believe feature services now support the ability to apply edits into a different version, OTHER than the particular version that was being accessed by the map service, when you published it. This capability is available at the Web Mapping API level - so you would have to enable this with custom code. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Ted, So, will that be next week then, or by the end of 3rd quarter. Probably in the latter part of 3rd quarter 2012. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Barry, ... when installing ArcGIS for Sharepoint, must it be installed on same server as Microsoft Sharepoint Server, or ArcGIS Server, or both; or neither, as long as on server with IIS? It needs to be installed on the same server as your Microsoft Sharepoint instance. Also, must the Silverlight API be installed with ArcGIS for Sharepoint as well? No, you don't need the Silverlight API installed. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Reda, I have read all the conditions and I was just wondering what are the violation of Google's terms of service we are talking about on Esri's Flex Viewer? There's a great discussion on the topic in this blog post. Even though the post refers to the ArcGIS API for Silverlight, the same general guidelines apply. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Reda, ... Could you please specify what are the legal constraints that prohibit using Google Maps on Flex? and what are the violation of Google's terms of service we are talking about? FYI, you can read and learn about the Legal Notices for Google Maps/Google Earth and Google Maps/Google Earth APIs and Google Maps/Earth Additional Terms of Service online. Hope this helps, ...

Hi Daniel, ... anyone think you could use SharePoint Online with ArcGIS Online. Connecting the two via ArcGIS for SharePoint? As far as I'm aware, there are no plans to integrate ArcGIS Online with SharePoint Online. ArcGIS for SharePoint is a client application that can work with SharePoint data + web services from ArcGIS Server and Web Maps from ArcGIS Online. In its current form it can't bridge the two different online platforms. Hope this helps, ... View more

Hi Joseph, We just installed ArcGIS for SharePoint 2.1.1. I notice that only some of the basemaps are showing. The Bing Maps aren't showing. The licensing model for accessing Bing maps data recently changed. Please review this Esri blog post Changes to Bing Maps token key for more details. Hope this helps, ... View more
