Hello! First, Thank you for the map gallery! It has made displaying our maps and applications soo much better and simpler for the public! I have two questions: I need my applications to open in a separate window when the users view them (cannot find where to do this!!). Some people find it difficult to navigate back to the gallery. Next, in the elections gallery (which only is using a simple viewer) my zoom arrows are not working?? I am not a programer, but have gained limited experience with all our online apps we have now. Map Gallery: http://publicgis.bartowga.org/ Elections Gallery: Bottom Left Corner of Gallery or at http://publicgis.bartowga.org/elections/index.html Thanks for the help in advance! Jacqueline Bartow GIS Hi Jacqueline, Thanks for the feedback! In settings.optional.js, there should be an option to open all gallery items in a new window. Try setting it to true. Let me know if that works for you. // Open gallery thumbnail links in a new window/tab pmgConfig.openGalleryNewWindow = false; The 2nd problem is a bit trickier. It seems as if the map has no levels of detail set. I think the zoom bar isn't working correctly on arcgis.com either. http://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=6727d675d12c4eb88e8ea7986186b313 Is there any way you can add levels of detail to the basemap? If not, i'll have to do some creative thinking. Thanks ... View more

Thanks. I'll throw Vijai's fix in the code if it can't find the extent. ... View more

Thanks Matt for your help. Yes, my locator is not outputting extents. I don't know of a way to create such a locator, I haven't noticed any options related to extents while creating my locator. I've used the standard menu driven way to create my locator. Is there a way to make the locator output extents in addition to X,Y? I was able to find a workaround for my issue. I changed the following lines in ShowResults function in layout.js. I've used the X,Y that my locator is returning and came up with a buffer around the point for the extents.                 var xminNew = parseFloat(geocodeResults[numResult].location.x-0.011);   var yminNew = parseFloat(geocodeResults[numResult].location.y-0.011);   var xmaxNew = parseFloat(geocodeResults[numResult].location.x+0.011);   var ymaxNew =  parseFloat(geocodeResults[numResult].location.y+0.011); This seems to work for now. Regards, Vijai Hi Vijai, Yep, that will work! I'm not sure how to get a custom locator to output extents. I know for our locator, in order to get the extent North, West, South, East, with the addressToLocations function, you have to pass "*" to get the extent. Maybe it's the same with your locator? .addressToLocations(address,["*"]); ... View more

Greetings; I have created two address locators, one for address points and one for streets; I have combined them into a composite locator and published as a service in ArcGIS server. The spatial reference of participating locators are in state plane and the composite address locator in GCS_WGS_1984. Then in PMG template, I changed �??pmgConfig.locatorURL�?� variable in �??settings.optional.js�?� to point to my published locator service. Now, when I access my PMG maps, and start typing in few characters in search box, I can see the autocomplete feature showing the related entries as I type. When I click on the search result to go to the location, the map pans to the coast of Africa and when I zoom out, I do see a point marked in the correct place. I don�??t know why the location is correctly marked but the map pans to a wrong place. I appreciate your help in this matter. FYI, I used �??42105 churchpoint rd, gonzales�?� as my search criteria. You can see my locator returns X,Y very similar to ESRI�??s built in locator. The spatial reference of both of the following locators are 4326. My Locator: http://gis.apgov.us/APGarcGIS/rest/services/Locators/ApgCompositeSearch/GeocodeServer Locator from PMG: http://tasks.arcgis.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/WorldLocator/GeocodeServer [ATTACH=CONFIG]14203[/ATTACH] In the showResults function, the locator converts the point and extent separately from geographic to web mercator and then sets the extent and adds the graphic. It sounds like maybe the extent is already in web mercator or maybe the extent is not getting returned from the locator. It might be good to check and see if the locator is returning all columns and results and that the extent (west,south,east,north) is set. Can you console.log() an extent that is returned and see what it says? Hope that helps. ... View more

I've tried changed the lod variable to lower numbers, but with no luck. My data is in State Plane, I am assuming the could be an issue?  Here is my rest endpoint for the tiled basemap.  Is there a way to define one of the LOD's as a default zoom to location? http://gis.arlingtonva.us/ArcGIS/rest/services/Arlington_Basemap_Plain/MapServer?f=json&pretty=true Hey Bill, I'll look into this some more and see what I can find. ...

the .click function likely won't work unless the .flip selector is in the HTML DOM on page load. I would use the .on function to handle this. This will apply to any elements with the class flip that are inserted after page load. $(document).ready(function(){   $(document).on('click', '.flip', function(){       $(".panel").slideToggle("slow");   }); }); ...

Is there a link I can generate for a map I've created in ArcGIS Online that when using my smart phone will open up automatically in the esri ArcGIS app? The map I've created is shared publicly so everyone may view it. This is what I was using for iOS: [INDENT]arcgis://www.arcgis.com/sharing/content/items/<MAP ID>/data[/INDENT] Android: [INDENT]arcgis://www.arcgis.com/?webmap=<MAP ID>[/INDENT] I don't think it works for Windows Phone. Not sure about any other devices. If anyone has a better link to use, let me know. ... View more
