Hi, One (or more) of the geometry operations should help you - perhaps start with GeometryService.RelationAsync() - http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/runtime-wpf/samples/index.html#/Relation_Online/02q2000000n7000000/. Cheers Mike

Hi, That's correct - to move an existing message you create a message with the action Update and pass in the ID of the message you want to move. Unfortunately it's not currently possible to alter the symbol size - we hope to be able to implement that for the next release. Cheers Mike

Hi, If your application is licensed as Basic then you can use online geometry services. If your application is licensed as Standard you can use the LocalGeometryService included with the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for WPF (no ArcGIS Server required). In the future we would like to provide additional local geometry capabilities - but in the meantime, there is another option which you may want to consider - the CoordinateConversion class (ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Geometry). This provides a number of methods to convert from MapPoint geometries to common coordinate notations (e.g. decimal degrees) and back again. Therefore you can convert a MapPoint in one coordinate system to decimal degrees and from decimal degrees back to a MapPoint in another coordinate system: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/runtime-wpf/apiref/index.html?ESRI.ArcGIS.Client~ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Geometry.CoordinateConversion_members.html Cheers Mike

Hi, Unfortunately the ProjectionService property does not currently take a datum transformation - it's a great enhancement request. The GeometryService.ProjectAsync has an overload which takes a datum transformation. You can download the source code for the GPSLayer from http://esrisilverlight.codeplex.com/. Cheers Mike

Hi, Yes, you should look at creating a new layer class which derives from DynamicLayer (http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/runtime-wpf/apiref/index.html?ESRI.ArcGIS.Client~ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.DynamicLayer.html) - the HeatMap layer in the Toolkit.Datasources assembly demonstrates this. You can find the source code on http://esrisilverlight.codeplex.com/. Cheers Mike

Hi, Sorry to hear you're having trouble with licensing. Development and deployment licenses should happily coexist on the same machine and the License Viewer can display both. If you are still experiencing issues - the resolution is usually as Matthew suggested - to backup your keycodes file (i.e. rename) and re-authorize both license files/numbers to generate a new keycodes file. If this doesn't work for you please contact technical support to report the problem. Cheers Mike

Hi, I already have ArcGIS Runtime SDK for WPF 1.0 installed on my machine. I want to upgrade to ArcGIS SDK for WPF 10.1.1. Is there a way to do the same other than downloading the new setup from EDN and installing i ton my system. Some patch installation etc. Please let me know. Hi, You need to download the new setup from the customer care portal. We are investigating ways in which we can streamline the downloading/upgrade process for a future release. Cheers Mike

Hi, Could you please tell me the version of the underlying ArcGIS API for WPF in ArcGIS Runtime SDK for WPF 10.1.1. The ArcGIS Runtime SDK for WPF 1.0 from what I know was based 2.4. Correct me if I am wrong. Hi, The versions are: ArcGIS Runtime SDK for WPF v1.0 => included v3.0 ArcGIS API for WPF/SL ArcGIS Runtime SDK for WPF v10.1.1 => v10.1.1 At 10.1.1 we moved the assembly versions up for consistency with the rest of the product and with the other ArcGIS Runtime SDKs. Cheers Mike

Hi, Yes, you can set the MinimumResolution property on the Map e.g. <esri:Map UseAcceleratedDisplay="True" WrapAround="True" MinimumResolution="2500" Extent="-15000000,2000000,-7000000,8000000" Background="#FFE3E3E3"> <esri:ArcGISLocalTiledLayer ID="BaseMap" Path="..\Data\TPKs\Topographic.tpk"/> </esri:Map> We use this in our Sample Application, where the TPK included in the sample data only goes down to approx. level 5 or 6. Cheers Mike

Hi, Yes, it needs to be a path accessible on both machines. You could consider creating a virtual drive (e.g. using Subst command) which could be, for example, X: and which points to wherever the data is on the authoring machine and the deployment machine. However, as I said, we're working to resolve these absolute path issues. Cheers Mike

‎05-14-2013

Hi, When the Package references the data it uses an absolute path and therefore the path on the deployment machine needs to be the same as the machine used to create the map package (you can use mapped drives to recreate the same path on each machine). However, the current editing workflow is somewhat restrictive and therefore we're working on a richer edit synchronization framework which will allow you to download features from a feature service, edit those features offline and then sync back with the service once you're online. It will also support more manual desktop checkout/checkin workflows, but with the absolute/relative path issues you've noted. Cheers Mike

Hi, I believe there's a component called Geosense for Windows which hooks into WIFI services to determine location. It integrates with the Windows Sensor and Location platform. You might find the GPSLayer just works in that case, having been given a more accurate location fix from Windows. Or, you may need to investigate writing your own GeocoordinateWatcher that you can use in conjunction with the GPSLayer, see http://www.sharpgis.net/post/2010/12/09/Simulating-GPS-on-Windows-Phone-7.aspx for a good example. Cheers Mike

Hi, Ideally you should avoid mixing geometry types within a single GraphicsLayer. If you want to serialize the layer to JSON you'll get an exception because the JSON serialization doesn't support mixed geometry types within a single layer. Cheers Mike

Hi, Configurations are created by the Runtime Deployment Tool in C:\Users\<UserName>\Documents\ArcGIS\Runtime Configurations. It's recommended that you create a number of configurations representing different deployments then pass those in to the deployment tool when using it via command line. Cheers Mike

Hi, There isn't much that hardware acceleration can do for dynamic layers, because the majority of the time is spent rendering the map image in ArcGIS for Server or the RuntimeLocalServer. Typically you would use dynamic layers when the user needs to see the latest state of the data (e.g. they're editing or accessing a shared database which others are editing) or you want to enable greater interactivity in the app such as querying the layer or performing identify operations. You can try the usual optimization techniques before you package the map, such as ensuring you have an attribute index on any fields which you use to render the data, turning off any redundant fields, simplifying the symbols used and ensuring the spatial index is calculated appropriately. If it's larger datasets, you should also make sure that the data is copied to a File Geodatabase (you may need to use the Package Map geoprocessing tool to get more control over the packaging process). Cheers Mike
