This document describes what you are allowed to do with free vs. paid ArcGIS Online Geocode services. If you are using your own geocoding services then, of course, this does not apply to you. Another alternative is the MapQuest Open Geocoding API Web Service. ... View more

I hope you get this question answered. I had heard that ArcGIS Pro was meant to replace ArcGIS Explorer Desktop. If an organizational account is required, however, then this is not the case. (Explorer was free and required no special account.) ... View more

This is definitely a bug in Esri's code. According to the documentation: If legendLayers is not specified, all operational layers will be present in the legend. I recently encountered this problem and came up with this function to createLegend Layers. /** * Creates an array of LegendLayers of all layers currently visible in the map. * @param {esri.Map} map * @returns {esri.tasks.LegendLayer[]} */ function getLegendLayersFromMap(map) {     var layer, legendLayer, output = [];     for (var i = 0, l = map.layerIds.length; i < l; i += 1) {         layer = map.getLayer(map.layerIds);         if (layer.visible && layer.visibleAtMapScale) {             legendLayer = new LegendLayer();             legendLayer.layerId = layer.id;             if (layer.visibleLayers) {                 legendLayer.subLayerIds = layer.visibleLayers;             }             output.push(legendLayer);         }     }     // Return null if the output array has no elements.     return output.length > 0 ? output : null; } // Sample call var printParameters = new PrintParameters(); printParameters.map = map; var template = new PrintTemplate(); template.format = "PDF"; // printUI is a custom class in my app that creates and manages the HTML UI for a print task form. template.layout = printUI.getSelectedTempalteName(); template.layoutOptions = {     authorText:printUI.form.querySelector("input[name=author]").value,     titleText: printUI.form.querySelector("input[name=title]").value,     legendLayers: getLegendLayersFromMap(map) }; printParameters.template = template; printTask.execute(printParameters); ...

This is great...thanks a lot jacobsj 🙂 this is what i wanted for csv. but still struggling with adding kmz locally. how to convert kmz into kml or unzip kmz and read its contents. Note that I haven't personally used the libraries listed below, but they look like they will do what you want. For unzipping the KMZ archive (which is just a ZIP archive containing KML): zip.js. For converting KML to GeoJSON: mapbox/togeojson. To convert from GeoJSON to ArcGIS JSON: Terraformer.ArcGIS. (This library is written by Esri.) ... View more

This is how I would do it. var img = document.createElement("img"); img.src = "images/test.jpg"; var a = document.createElement("a"); a.href = "foo.html"; a.appendChild(img); document.getElementById("legendPanel").appendChild(a); Should result in [HTML] <a href="foo.html"><img src="images/test.jpg" /></a> [/HTML] ...

If you are using a Dojo theme (e.g., Claro, Soria, Tundra, Nihilo) you can access these icons using classes. For example, the disk icon (save) is accessed by adding the following classes to an HTML element: dijitIcon dijitIconSave E.g., [HTML]<div class="dijitReset dijitInline dijitIcon dijitIconSave" role="presentation" data-dojo-attach-point="iconNode"></div>[/HTML] Unfortunately, I haven't found any good documentation listing the different icons that are available. The best way I've found is to use the DOM inspection tools in either Chrome or Firefox on Dojo's Dijit Theme Tester page to see what icons available. ... View more

I guess I don't know exactly how stylesheets work. You can reference more than one and they won't conflict? It is very common for a web page to use more than one CSS file. A rule in later stylesheet (referenced lower in the HTML document) can override a rule set by an earlier one. ... View more
