Hi, I'm trying to get printing working from a viewmodel and when I construct the PrintParameters I'm using the public PrintParameters(IEnumerable<Layer> layers, Envelope mapExtent) constructor as I don't have a reference to the map control. This works for all layers except feature layers. I'm creating the layers from a model class so I'm not cloning the layers. The problem is that it does not get serialized and sent as part of the request to export web map in the operational layers. It looks like its due to the SDK checking if the layer has any graphics (ToJson() method of PrintParameters) which it doesn't since the layer is not initialized though I have set the url, token and where clause. I can see why it doesn't work but in this scenario I would think its valid to still expect the print to include the feature layer and do a server side call to the service rather than trying to send the client state of the layer. This is with the 10.2 release of the SDK. Thoughts?

I created a basic solution to demo the concept at https://github.com/davetimmins/ArcGISPortalCreditsCalculator

You can do this with ArcGIS Server 10.1 through dynamic query layers. There is an example on the Interactive SDK http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/silverlight-api/samples/start.htm#DynamicLayerThematic. REST API documentation at http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/rest/apiref/dynamicLayer.html Cheers,

The DataItem class is just used to define your object to bind your data to the view. If you look at the code for the identify sample in the interactive SDK http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/silverlight-api/samples/start.htm#Identify the DataItem is defined at the bottom of the file public class DataItem { public string Title { get; set; } public IDictionary<string, object> Data { get; set; } } Cheers,

The code below looks like it has some errors, the third line of code is missing a g on the end and the strServiceAddressOrganisations variable is never set. In terms of setting the url's dynamically you can do it, there are a number of options. You can set values in your web.config and pass them through to the Silverlight plugin, or have them in a database and provide access via a service or the like or you can load the xaml dynamically which contains the layer markup. A couple of blogs that discuss some of these techniques are http://davetimmins.wordpress.com/2011/07/22/dynamically-loading-layers-at-runtime-with-silverlight/ http://www.gal-systems.com/2011/08/passing-parameters-to-silverlight.html Cheers,

You could use a Visibility type converter and bind the stackpanel visibility to it, there is an example in this blog http://www.jeff.wilcox.name/2008/07/visibility-type-converter/ Cheers,

It is worth testing how the change will impact end users. The reason it will affect performance is that the server has to do more work to generate a larger image and there is more data to transfer over the network so you will have increased network latency. This may still perform to an acceptable level though, it really depends how complex your service is and how powerful your server is. There aren't any other nice ways to do what you want though some examples in case you really want to investigate something different are changing your UI to make the map smaller, or you could write your own layer that requests the image in sections so each one is smaller. I wouldn't recommend these though. Cheers,

The API would provide a way for application developers to inform their users of the amount of credits required to perform an operation prior to them executing it. This would be useful for example when a user has access to an application but the developer has provided some extra paid functionality and wants to use AGO, but in doing so will consume credits that they want to charge the user for. The API could work by taking the resource Id of the published AGO resource (service) and the proposed operation e.g. geocode n items against service with id xxxxxxxxxx.

For v10 you can change the maximum image height and width in the service configuration files (the default is 2048). See http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisserver/10.0/help/arcgis_server_dotnet_help/index.html#//0093000000mr000000 and the MaxImageHeight and MaxImageWidth properties for the MapServer. Note that increasing these will affect the performance. Cheers,

How about setting the z-index ? You could set up a visual state to do it purely in XAML. Cheers,

The current REST API endpoints for the ArcGIS server services directory and administration allow you to get some useful information and test operations but the documentation is very basic and when complex inputs are required there is no help at all really. By adding Swagger support you could provide the user with a much richer experience and make the API more self documenting.

Hi Tom, the documentation is correct. The 1000 feature limit is the default for query results for a dynamic map service. There is no limit on the number of features drawn as the dynamic service is returned as an image but if you ran a query task against it would use the maximum allowed features value (which defaults to 1000). Cheers

Hi, you can do it by passing a collection as the usertoken and it's returned in the same order. I wrote a blog post about this a while back http://davetimmins.wordpress.com/2011/08/25/using-the-usertoken/ Cheers,

Add the option to specify custom CSS to apply to AGOL for either portal or an organisational account in the cloud using either a stylesheet template or new administration page. Currently you can override some CSS by adding a style tag when setting the header html but having greater control over this would be nice.
