Perfect! The sample code works like a charm! Thanks Mike! ... View more

I now had the opportunity to test out the Graphic.MoveTo method and unfortunately it does not work the way I hoped it would. Although it's a lot quicker, I do not get the animation that I was hoping for, where a graphic slides gracefully to the new position in the map (like in GpsLayer). I just wanted to clarify this to anyone who request similar functionality. Cheers, Aslak ... View more

*Yay* it's working now. Thanks dbroux! To be specific, the following did not work (i.e. no tiles are loaded): <esri:Map Name="MyMap" WrapAround="True">     <esri:WmtsLayer Layer="matrikkel_bakgrunn"            Url="http://opencache.statkart.no/gatekeeper/gk/gk.open_wmts?"          Version="1.0.0" Visible="True" /> </esri:Map> As soon as I added a ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer, and then set the TileMatrixSet as below, it worked as a charm:  <esri:Map Name="MyMap" WrapAround="True">     <esri:ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer ID="StreetMapLayer" Url="http://services.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer" /><esri:WmtsLayer Layer="matrikkel_bakgrunn"    TileMatrixSet="EPSG:3857"                       Url="http://opencache.statkart.no/gatekeeper/gk/gk.open_wmts?"                     Version="1.0.0" Visible="True" /> </esri:Map> My only issue now is that the loading time of the tiles seems to slow down at times (i.e. suddenly it takes up to 30 seconds to load a new set of tiles). This is a different issue however and I will try to debug it with Fiddler. Again thanks for your help dbroux! ... View more

That's very strange indeed. When you got it to work, did you use Runtime 1.0? I'm using version 2.4, and I cannot get it to work, even if I create a completely new project and copy/paste your code above into it. ... View more

Thanks for your reply dbroux! Luckily for me the map that I want to use in my application is also available as a WMTS. Unfortunately though, nothing happens when I try to load the map (i.e. no tiles are loaded). My code for adding the map is the following: <Esri:WmtsLayer Visible="True" Version="1.0.0" Layer="matrikkel_bakgrunn" Url="http://opencache.statkart.no/gatekeeper/gk/gk.open_wmts?" /> Information about the service (i.e. available layers and such) can be found here: http://opencache.statkart.no/gatekeeper/gk/gk.open_wmts?Version=1.0.0&service=wmts&request=getcapabilities Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks for your reply Mike, this is exactly what I need. Unfortunately I'm using an older version of the API (version 2.4), which does not include the MoveTo() method, so then I guess there is no other option than to implement this functionality myself. I do not have an EDN subscription so unfortunately there's  no chance of updating for me I guess. Thanks anyway for your help! ... View more

The functionality in the new API looks great, and as a user of the earlier version ArcGIS API for WPF 2.4 I would really like to upgrade to use this library instead. However, while the earlier version was freely available, it seems like I need an EDN subscription in order to get hold of the new API. Could you clarify for me whether it is possible to get hold of the API without an EDN subscription? I do not need all the other stuff that comes with and EDN subscription, and cannot really afford the yearly cost of having this subscription. Cheers ... View more

The position of the items being managed in device-independent units, the only way to keep the geographical position of the items is to include the scatter view (with a fixed size) inside a Viewbox. So the display of the scatter view is stretched while zooming in or out but its size doesn�??t change and the items keep their geographical position. The counterpart is that the items scale up and down while zooming since their size in device independent units doesn�??t change but they scale because the viewbox scales. The solution might be to wire up an handler to the map Extent_Changed event and to change the scatterviewitems size dynamically depending on the map scale. But to keep the content of the scatter item unchanged while changing the scatter item size, I guess you have to encapsulate each item inside a viewbox. In short:           Surround the scatter view by a viewbox that is inserted in the element layer with a fixed size.           Surround by a viewbox each scatter view item that doesn�??t have to scale while zooming           On map extent changed event, loop on all scatter view items containing a viewbox and change the items size by a size depending of the map scale. Hope this helps. Thanks again for your suggestion! One question: If I surround each ScatterViewItem with a viewbox, they are no longer ScatterViewItems, and hence it will not be possible to place them on the ScatterView. Is this correct, or did I misunderstand something? ... View more

Did you set a fixed width/height on the ScatterView control prior to dropping it inside a ViewBox ? The width and height of the ScatterView (before dropping it inside the ViewBox) was set to Auto. ... View more
