SRRoberts, The problem got fixed in 10.1 SP1. While you are waiting on updating to SP1, Ismael's suggestion is perfectly a valid workaround. ... View more

Ben, that is expected. here is an excerpt from the help (http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/#/Working_with_legends/00s900000023000000/): "... It is important to remember that this means it will try to make the legend as compact as possible, not that it will try to take up the entire bounding box. Instead of resizing legend item elements to fill the frame; font size, default patch size, and gap measurement values will be used as maximum values. After the entire frame is taken up using these values, legend items will begin to drop....." ... View more

Ben, it works.. please see attached screen shots to see that legends grows or shrinks based on the size of the legend element on the layout. i have also attached the settings of the legend element's properties. -Tanu ... View more

Jake, I'm not sure why it is not working for you. I'd appreciate if you could contact Esri Tech Support and have them take a look at this. Thanks. ... View more

try this: right-click on the service in ArcMap's Catalog window click on Service Properties... once the Service Editor is opened, click on "Parameters" page get the path from "Publish Documents" using Windows Explorer, browse to the Publish Documents folder there should be one .mxd file open that and check whether you can find that specific layer Note: DO NOT modify them - these folders and their contents (.mxd/.msd etc.) are managed by the Server framework. Modifying the contents may result in expected failures or corrupt the server ... View more

David, Kuba: I'd suggest to contact Esri Tech Support to have them take a look at your issue. few things: 1. I have noticed that "Shape.STArea()" field is missing even though it is a polygon fc 2. are you publishing by copying the data (it does not seem to; just wanted to double-check) 3. did you stop the map service before adding the new field? or, do you happen to have schema-locking disabled? 4. did you ever try deleting the exiting map service first >> then add new field >> and publish as a new map service? thanks.

Where can I find the actual data that is uploaded to the server to verify everything is being copied? [In Desktop 10.1 & above] Right-click on a service in the Catalog Window >> Select "Service Workspace..." >> once the window is opened, click on the root on the tree list. ... View more

I switched my print service from Asynchronous to Synchronous and that seems to have made the difference. (Although I still think it's gremlins.) In the instructions for authoring it suggested you can use either for your Execution Method. I didn't find that was the case! Hmm... that shouldn't make any difference. You should use async only when you think it may take longer to generate output. I'd recommend you to contact Esri Tech Support to submit an incident and have them check why async vs sync makes all the difference in your case. Thanks. ... View more

I'm having a real hard time spotting the typo, but I think I'm missing an ending curly brace to close out value of layoutOptions. I'm not an expert in JS, but i thought you'd have got an run-time error if you had any missing ending curly braces. I'm not sure which IDE you are using to write JS code. But as you know you can search the web with "Javascript lint" and use one of those online lint apps to find those syntactical errors. And as always, as you did in the other case, you can use console.log(this.templates.layoutOptions) to make sure that object looks good. I'm still trying to decide if my service is OK. I'm having a really hard time testing it without programming something. in order to find out whether you service is ok, you can go to the REST end point of your printing service's task, paste the JSON generated by your app (if you need to fix the missing braces or something like that, fix it, you use some sites like jsonlint.org to check the validity of the json) in ExportWebMap_As_JSON text box, specify the name of the Layout Template and click Execute. One thing that I noticed (not a bug or error) is that in your code, you are updating layoutOptions for all templates! do you need to do that? If I'm not mistaken, I think you should update layoutOptions only for the selected template, not all. ... View more

Janice, unfortunately, these are known issues. Currently, unchecking any formats or templates from the Service Editor dialog box has no effect. removing template mxds from the folder is a workaround for templates. but there is no workaround for choosing a subset from the format list. ... View more

Tracy, Custom text elements need to be defined as separate objects, then they need to be put in an array before assigning that array to the layoutOptions.customTextElements property. http://developers.arcgis.com/en/javascript/jsapi/printtemplate.html#layoutoptions here is a snippet of how JS code should look like: template.layoutOptions = {   titleText: "just something",   customTextElements: [     { "descripText": "BEG 192.1 FT S SE COR KANSAS & KEARNEY STS S 50 FT E 160 FT N 50 FT W TO BEG11/29/22 (EX W 20 FT" },     { "subTitleText": " 2331 N KANSAS AVE" }   ] }; here is the equivalent JSON gets sent to a Printing service: "layoutOptions": {   "titleText": "just something",   "customTextElements": [     {       "descripText": "BEG 192.1 FT S SE COR KANSAS & KEARNEY STS S 50 FT E 160 FT N 50 FT W TO BEG11/29/22 (EX W 20 FT)"     },     {       "subTitleText": " 2331 N KANSAS AVE"     }   ] } hope this helps. ...
