You can see this code in action in this application. Click a point on the map near the corner of one of the grids. Is this the type of results you're looking for? ... View more

I've noticed that if I set breakpoints but haven't made any changes to my code since last debugging it, the breakpoints won't be hit. I have to make sure the project is built (either by making a insubstantial addition or building it manually) so the breakpoints are hit. ... View more

Here's some code in one of my applications that will populate a datagrid from a map click, putting it into a tab navigator in an InfoWindow. The portion of the code that is commented out allows you to get back the results from multiple visible layers in your layer, which are put into separate tabs. The listeners that are added allow you to highlight the features on the map when you click or roll over the entries in the datagrid.             protected function MainMap_mapClickHandler(event:MapMouseEvent):void             {                 var identifyParams:IdentifyParameters = new IdentifyParameters();

Here's another way that I'm using in my add-in. I have a form (DrawFeature) containing buttons for different polygons the user can create on screen: buffered points, polygons, freehand polygons, and rectangles. I also have a tool (DrawTool) that is called when one of the buttons on that form is pushed. I'm using a global variable (DrawFeatureType) to pass what type of feature is being created. I've attached the code since it's too long to post. ... View more
