apparently, this is not included in the next release. It was suggested that "we" post this on the ideas site explaining how it "should" work. Have been told that crowd sourcing is a really good method for pushing enhancements into the Web APIs. R_ ... View more

That was it.  Thanks again for the widget and this "great" enchancement. (as well as the "fix" :o) R_ ... View more

Just because I was "editing" that in the forum reply box.  There is no space in my esearch.xml, just confirmed it. R_ If I do put a space behind it, it looks like I only get "null".  Still spins the clock indefinatly though. ... View more

Robert, I just used the square brackets to indicate that it was a field name. I do not have a field named FIELD. <layer> <definitionexpression></definitionexpression> <enableexport>true</enableexport> <name>Search</name> <url>http://gis01.wch-rcc.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/SDCV_custom/wastebuffers/MapServer/0</url> <expressions> <expression alias="Designated Area" textsearchlabel="Pick an Area from the List:" isvaluerequired="false">   <values>    <value userlist="100BC,100D,100F,100H,100K,100N,300,600,all" isvaluerequired="false">summary_DESG_AREA = '[value]'</value>    <value uniquevalsfromfield="summary_DESG_AREA " isvaluerequired="false">summary_DESG_AREA = '[value]'</value>   </values> </expression> <expression alias="Latest Activity    " textsearchlabel="Select an Activity from the List:" isvaluerequired="false">   <values>                              <value uniquevalsfromfield="summary_Note" isvaluerequired="false">summary_Note = '[value]'</value>                              <value userlist="Closure,Confimatory,RTD,all" isvaluerequired="false">summary_Note = '[value]'</value>   </values> </expression> </expressions> <graphicalsearchlabel>Use one of the graphical search tools to select Zoning</graphicalsearchlabel> <spatialsearchlayer>true</spatialsearchlayer> <titlefield>SITECODE</titlefield> <fields all="false"> <field name="SITECODE"/> <field name="SITECODE" alias="SiteCode" gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true"/> <field name="summary_Date" alias="Activity Date     " gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true" dateformat="MM/DD/YYYY" useutc="true" /> <field name="summary_Note" alias="Latest Activity" gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true" /> <field name="summary_SortOrder " alias="Sort Order" gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true"/> <field name="summary_LVL1Stage" alias="Level 1 Stage" gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true"/> <field name="summary_SPIF_reclass" alias="SPIF Reclass" gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true"/> <field name="summary_SPIF_backfill" alias="SPIF Backfill" gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true"/> <field name="summary_SPIF_Reveg" alias="SPIF Reveg" gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true"/> <field name="summary_TPA_Milestones" alias="Milestone" gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true"/> <field name="summary_Milestone_Date" alias="Milestone Date"  gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true" /> <field name="summary_DESG_AREA" alias="Designated Area   " gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true" sort="asc|1|string"/> <field name="summary_WBS_6" alias="WBS_6" gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true"/> <field name="summary_FINAL_ROD_DEC_UNIT" alias="summary_FINAL_ROD_DEC_UNIT" gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true"/> <field name="summary_ContractMod" alias="ContractMod     " gridfield="true" gridfieldonly="true"/> </fields> </layer> Of course I only use ONE of the first value expressions above. For Designated Area, the blue one works fine, the red one will make the clock cursor spin indefinatly. However, either of them on the Latest Activity will work fine. If I switch them so that the Latest Activity expression is before the Designated area, then I can't use the uniquevalsfromfield without the indefinate clock cursor. Hope this makes it more clear.

All,    The next new release is available: Version 3.0.11 - 10/17/2012 * Added uniquevalsfromfield as a source for search drop down (like usedomain and userlist options).   This now queries the map service for unique values of a field to use in the dropdown. Robert, I recently updated to the 3.0.11 eSearch and have noticed an odd behaviour/bug.  I am trying to use the uniquevalsfromfield="[FIELD]" and for the most part is working great.  However, it doesn't seem to matter what field or service I am searching, if the first expression in the first layer in my xml has the uniquevalsfromfield option, the little clock timer will never stop running, even after clearing/closing the widget.  It still gets the unique list and does the search, but the progress clock makes people think it is "working". While on the subject, if there is any NULL values in the field, "null" will be at the bottom of the list, however, if you try to search by null, you will get zero values.  Seems like the null should either not show up on the list, OR actually select the features where field is null. Guess while I'm on the subject, I'll throw in an enhancement request as well.  Would it be possible, when using the uniquevalsfromfield option to have it also append the "all" to the end of the list so we still have the option to select everything? Thanks again and another great enhancement to the widget (can quit using my python routine to update the list now), R_ ... View more

I think Robert has fixed the "issues" with that widget. The other issues I had were because I was trying to make it do things it was never intended to do. I'm pretty new to this Flex stuff, but you might get some ideas here: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-api/samples/index.html#/Dynamic_Map_Layers_on_off/01nq0000001t000000/ R_ ... View more

Scott,    It is possible to exclude a specific layer from a map service which (Removes it from the map as well), this is all that is currently possible. <excludelayer mapservice="Utilities">8</excludelayer> Where 8 is the layer id (meaning the ninth layer of this service). Robert, if I load a layer such as <layer label="Hanford Wells" type="dynamic" visible="true" alpha="1"       url="http://host/ArcGIS/rest/services/Base/wells/MapServer">       <sublayer id="1" popupconfig="popups/PopUp_wells.xml"/>       <sublayer id="0" popupconfig="popups/PopUp_Inject.xml"/>    </layer> it will be turned on when the map loads. In the TOC.xml I put <excludelayer mapservice="Hanford Wells"></excludelayer> then the layer does NOT show up on the TOC, but it will draw both sub-layers on the map. If I change it to <excludelayer mapservice="Hanford Wells">1</excludelayer> then the sub-layer does NOT show up in the TOC and will NOT draw that sub-layer. So, it only removes it from the map if a sub-layer is set in the excludelayer tag.  Just curious if this is by design or if mine is behaving differently than expected. I actually like it this way as I do load some layers that I need to identify against, but don't want them visible or in the TOC. Actually wish the sub-layers behaved this way as well. R_ ...

Robert, Is it possible to 'hide' or 'disable' specific layers within a service on this table of contents?  I'm guessing that it looks at the service as a whole and if I have a dynamic map service containing all my layers I may be out of luck. Thanks, Scott Scott, The TOC widget supports <excludelayers>   <excludelayer mapservice="Symbols"></excludelayer>   <excludelayer mapservice="Utilities">8</excludelayer> </excludelayers> the first example excludes entire service, the second only excludes sub-layer 8 R_ this is straight out of the example.xml that comes with the widget.  Some documentation on it in the readme as well. ...

Just checked the link and is working fine for me.  I'm using IE8, know that sometimes the browser causes "download" issues. R_ perhaps you saw the "Open" button is greyed out.  Scroll down and click the "Download" link near the bottom. ... View more

Looks like the eSearch widget will let you select a sub-set of pre-selected entities by feature layer, and the selection widget will let you select all features in one layer that intersect another. However, if it falls within ANY features in the intersect layer, it will be selected.  Does not appear to only find features that intersect the "selected" polygon. Since you didn't say if you were using compiled or uncompiled and were asking " (or another way to do this) " I thought maybe you were interested in some coding to do this.  Thought you might be able to glean some of the select by extent/graphic information from one of these widgets.  Maybe have a definitionexpression or where clause attached to your widget that only loads the "selected" polygon and passes that to the selection widget code.  Not sure how to do it or if this would work for you, just tossing out some "ideas".

Got it. Thanks Ben, R_ ... View more

Ben, The download link says you have included the compiled and uncompiled version in the zip file. I do not see the source in there, just compiled version.  Would it be possible to get the source also? Thanks, R_ ... View more

Ok, lets say I copied the ElevationsSOE files to a folder named C:/SOEs the first line in the install.bat file is: %SystemRoot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\regasm ElevationsSOE.dll /codebase so, in my run as admin CMD I cd to C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727 and type regasm.exe c:/SOEs/ElevationsSOE.dll and press enter. Then, in the run as admin CMD I cd back to C:/SOEs and type the next line from the install.bat file  c:/SOEs/RegisterElevationSOE -r  and press enter. Done.  May have had to reboot after this, don't remember, but after that I was able to get the elevations enabled with arccatalog. R_ ... View more
