hi helen, if you are passing the results of your query to a generic graphics layer, you can make the symbology anything you want. new SimpleLineSymbol(style,color,width) https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/jsapi/simplelinesymbol-amd.html when working with featureLayers, by default we inherit the symbology from the service itself, but you are able to override and set your own symbology on the clientside in that situation too.

no worries. 1. make sure to take advantage of either the selectFeatures() callback or the corresponding event listener ("selection-complete") when you'd like to get a reference to a specific feature to update. 2. don't bother instantiating a new Graphic object.  just use the mapClick to set graphic.geometry on what's already been selected.  (because you don't want to overwrite or blow away the existing attributes.) map.on("click", function(evt) {   featureLayer.selectFeatures(query, FeatureLayer.SELECTION_NEW, function(results) {     //use the method callback to dig into the results and update its geometry                             results[0].geometry = evt.mapPoint;                 //pass the entire array (in this case one feature) back to the server     featureLayer.applyEdits(null, results, null);                 //refresh the layer to make sure the edit was successful     featureLayer.refresh();               });         }); here's a working fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/jagravois/Cp9yz/ ...

hi Aaron, i think the reason you're having a hard time finding documentation on this topic is because its a convention thats related to the REST spec for geocoding services, but also kind of peculiar to local government templates. CandidateFields refers to the fields returned for individual results.  You set this to get control over what attributes are present in your results. LocatorFieldValues refers to the name of the individual locator a candidate was located by (since the service is a composite).  I believe that setting this property allows you to restrict individual locators that you want to consider results from. here's a sample JSON request that uses 'outFields=*' to show all the available attributes: http://geocode.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/GeocodeServer/find?text=Washington&outFields=*&f=pjson hope that helps! ...

Dawen, because we have no concept of readonly properties in JavaScript, maxRecordCount is a property of a FeatureLayer that is technically writable, but is really only intended to learn what value has been set by ArcGIS Server when interacting with a particular service. in general, the same concepts for all other graphicsLayers is relevant to a CSV layer.  its usually not an optimal user experience to have people interacting with more than 1,000 individual features.
