Yeah, this was interesting. Google is shaping the industry - they can do that. I've heard a lot of people asking about Java applets, with many recommending Dart as an alternative, which, is developed by... Google.

It looks like Google made good on their 9/1/2015 deadline... https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3058254 This no longer works; there is no longer a flag for #enable-npapi

I concur there's a wealth of resources to help if you're willing to dig in and get dirty. When we evaluated ArcGIS Server, pairing with the JSAPI, we had a complete, working development application, from server set-up to code development, all without needing to contact Esri or asking forum questions. Our evaluation didn't come with tech support, so we were on our own and managed workarounds, etc. from our own research. We're just one case... everyone is different, but there's a wealth of information available for those willing to look. Of course, this may not always be ideal and/or possible when you've got pressing issues that need to be resolved, but, at that point, you should have a maintenance contract with Esri. If you own the product and are current with maintenance, there should be an easy way to report valid bugs. Easier said than done - I know!

Almost like they have to go their GP to get a referral to see a specialist who can give then review their symptoms for a resolution. Except here they'd still have to receive correspondence through the third party. If these are indeed bugs, this set-up may be filtering some of them out, which would affect us all.

Sorry, just realized you are asking from a vb perspective. I tried searching the .NET SDK for examples - there are some for labeling - Label map features—ArcGIS Runtime SDK for .NET | ArcGIS for Developers and some for adding graphics and text - Add graphics and text—ArcGIS Runtime SDK for .NET | ArcGIS for Developers. However, I couldn't find any reference to annotation and leader lines. I did some more digging and found an Esri response to a forum posting regarding the iOS SDK - AGSFeatureLayer can't display labels nor annotation feature classes It doesn't seem to be supported or planned for support. That may just be for iOS... It seems some other developers have run into issues with using annotation layers... What is Supported Runtime Content in ArcGIS Desktop 10.3?

Marcus, Here's some info on storing annotation: About creating annotation feature classes—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop If you're having trouble ensuring your leader lines show, try setting your leader tolerance to zero - it resolved an issue with stored annotation not showing leader lines for at least one person: arcgis desktop - Annotation stored in a database is not showing my leader lines - Geographic Information Systems Stack E…

Might be for the best. In my experience, there were some draconian TOS issues with using Google Maps. If Esri is giving Bing samples, they have probably already vetted the usage as a background map.

Yeap! Someone created an app: http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=a8f78cc6adea48cb8e962d7e36b9d010 UPDATE: It looks like the last version supported is early 3.x per the forum postings... I don't think it will work for you in 3.14. The original author hasn't provided any updates since 2012.

If it was developed using the WAB, and you're needing to customize, I would check-out the links Rebecca gave first. If you find this doesn't fit your needs, you can leverage complete control by developing using the JSAPI (| Guide | ArcGIS API for JavaScript). I started using the JSAPI before the WAB was available for JavaScript, so I prefer this, but only because we already have a customized app already built from scratch.

I would recommend upgrading to 3.14 and fixing all of your breaking changes when implementing ArcGIS API for JavaScript Sandbox I say this because 2.x was retired June of 2014; it is no longer supported by Esri. http://downloads.esri.com/support/product%20life%20cycle/online_gis/ArcGISWebMappingAPIs_PLC.pdf

This works! Filter on "Republican": var testFeat = new FeatureLayer("http://services.arcgis.com/V6ZHFr6zdgNZuVG0/arcgis/rest/services/CongressionalDistricts/FeatureServer/0"); testFeat.setDefinitionExpression("PARTY = 'Republican'"); sources.push({ featureLayer: testFeat, searchFields: ["DISTRICTID", "PARTY"], displayField: "DISTRICTID", suggestionTemplate: "${DISTRICTID}, Party: ${PARTY}", name: "Congressional Districts", placeholder: "3708", maxResults: 6, maxSuggestions: 6, //Create an InfoTemplate and include three fields infoTemplate: new InfoTemplate("Congressional District", "District ID: ${DISTRICTID}Name: ${NAME}Party Affiliation: ${PARTY}"), enableSuggestions: true, minCharacters: 0 }); Search: 37 (no dems returned): Filter on "Democrat": var testFeat = new FeatureLayer("http://services.arcgis.com/V6ZHFr6zdgNZuVG0/arcgis/rest/services/CongressionalDistricts/FeatureServer/0"); testFeat.setDefinitionExpression("PARTY = 'Democrat'"); sources.push({ featureLayer: testFeat, searchFields: ["DISTRICTID", "PARTY"], displayField: "DISTRICTID", suggestionTemplate: "${DISTRICTID}, Party: ${PARTY}", name: "Congressional Districts", placeholder: "3708", maxResults: 6, maxSuggestions: 6, //Create an InfoTemplate and include three fields infoTemplate: new InfoTemplate("Congressional District", "District ID: ${DISTRICTID}Name: ${NAME}Party Affiliation: ${PARTY}"), enableSuggestions: true, minCharacters: 0 }); Search: 37 (no republicans returned):

No problem, John - it's a great community here - welcome! I've learned quite a bit trying to stay active on the forums when I've got some free time here and there. I agree that simpler is better, so if it's not valid to have users search by year in addition to ID, then we may be able to go about this another way: FeatureLayer | API Reference | ArcGIS API for JavaScript You might be able to create an instance of the FeatureLayer, then set the definition query: featureLayer.setDefinitionExpression("STATE_NAME = 'South Carolina'"); And then pass this to your source (filtering on year). I haven't tested this, though!

‎09-18-2015

I'm not sure if this is helpful, but you could add a suggestion template, e.g.: sources.push({ featureLayer: new FeatureLayer("http://services.arcgis.com/V6ZHFr6zdgNZuVG0/arcgis/rest/services/CongressionalDistricts/FeatureServer/0"), searchFields: ["DISTRICTID", "PARTY"], displayField: "DISTRICTID", suggestionTemplate: "${DISTRICTID}, Party: ${PARTY}", exactMatch: false, outFields: ["DISTRICTID", "NAME", "PARTY"], name: "Congressional Districts", placeholder: "3708", maxResults: 6, maxSuggestions: 6, //Create an InfoTemplate and include three fields infoTemplate: new InfoTemplate("Congressional District", "District ID: ${DISTRICTID}Name: ${NAME}Party Affiliation: ${PARTY}"), enableSuggestions: true, minCharacters: 0 }); So, when you search, say by DISTRICTID, in this case, the user could select from the suggestion list knowing their political party: In your case, they could enter the prop ID and select the year of the record they want for 2015. Would that work?

Dave, Will this example work for you? Select graphic points within an extent | ArcGIS API for JavaScript
