Hi Shannon, Great news! Thank you for following up. ... View more

The problem is that iOS does not process the contextmenu mouse event, as both Android and Windows do. Unfortunately unless you are using the Bower build, there is no current fix for the problem, as it requires a significant hack to the menu.js in dojo's digit directory. The dojo menu.js code that won't work in iOS:       on(cn, delegatedEvent(this.leftClickToOpen ? "click" : "contextmenu"), function(evt){ The fix requires a separate section of code for ios. First bring in the dojox/gesture/tap module to menu.js. Then as follows: //create a var for tap.hold with a long enough hold time to prevent from being activated on swipe gesture var myTap = new dojox.gesture.tap.Tap({holdThreshold: 1000}); //separate code for ios only: if(has("ios")){    var hammertime = Hammer(dom.byId("mapViewDiv_root"));    hammertime.get('press').set({       time: 1000,       pointers: 1,       threshold: 9       });   var self = this;    hammertime.on("press", function (e) {    var x, y;    x = e.center.x;    y = e.center.y;    self.myX = x;    self.myY = y;    });    var doConnects = lang.hitch(this, function(cn){       var selector = this.selector,       delegatedEvent = selector ?          function(eventType){ //the folowing is necessary to keep iOS from freezing any other click events on the map, due to using dojox/gesture            if(cn.className == "esriMapContainer"){                cn.dojoClick = true;} //end add          return on.selector(selector, eventType);          } :          function(eventType){                return eventType;             } //self= this not needed here since it is declared above         //  self = this;  return [       on(cn, delegatedEvent(this.leftClickToOpen ? "click" : myTap.hold), function(evt){             evt.stopPropagation();             evt.preventDefault(); //need to this to clear the element for other click events.Not sure why at this point:          query(dom.byId("mapViewDiv_root")).on(myTap.hold, function(e){e.preventDefault()}); //need to allow other node menu events to work as usual, thus separate code for the context menu          if(evt.target.nodeName == "svg"){                self._scheduleOpen(this, iframe, {x: self.myX, y: self.myY}, evt.target);                   }else{                self._scheduleOpen(this, iframe, {x: evt.pageX, y: evt.pageY}, evt.target);                  } //end altered/added code: the rest can be taken as written in menu.js.  I use an 'else' statement to move from 'has(ios)' to the original code for all other devices. Hammer.js is necessary as documented elsewhere due to dojox/gesture not returning screen coordinates. I hope this helps someone. Took me a few days to figure everything out. Unfortunately, I'm getting used to this. ... View more

Rene, I posted my comment before reading your response. The build report did help me as you indicated. Custom code is bit tricky to make work: perhaps a simple sample in the documentation might help. What I did specifically was to add a map to my app/widgets directory, and referred to it in the packages array: packages: [     // 'app' is a sample path for your application     // set this accordingly     'app',     'widget',     'dijit',     'dojo',     'dojox',     'dstore',     'dgrid',     'xstyle',     'put-selector',     'esri', {       name: 'moment',       location: 'moment',       main: 'moment',       trees: [           // don't bother with .hidden, tests, min, src, and templates           [".", ".", /(\/\.)|(~$)|(test|txt|src|min|templates)/]       ],       resourceTags: {         amd: function(filename, mid){           return /\.js$/.test(filename);         }       }     }   ],       map: {       '*': {         widget: "app/widget"       }     }, And in the include: include: [         // include the app, set accordingly for your application         'app/main',         'widget/SaraWidget',         'widget/SchoolsWidget',         'widget/utils/PopupExtended',         // dependencies of esri/map that will be requested if not included There were other syntax and argument errors that I fixed as well. Again, it was confusing in that the errors did not cause problems in dev environment, but all is well, at least for now! ... View more

On further review, I used the build-report.txt file that dojo outputs to the dist directory to get to the source of the problem. For others who may encounter this, the file is huge, so it worked for me to copy and paste it into Excel, then do a search for "Missing dependencies", as well as a search for "error(" . I had to adjust my build.profile to create a map to my widget directory, include it in packages, and then add it the include array in 'dojo/dojo'. What is peculiar is that the problems that I had with build did not cause the dev environment to fail to load the project. ... View more

Robert, Perfect! Thank you once again. ... View more

Robert, Wow, I sure missed that. Amazing stuff, as usual. Thanks! Jim Faron ... View more

Robert, I am upgrading from an earlier version of your widget, and I am encountering a problem with the graphic not showing at all zoom levels. The reason is that the layer in question is part of a tiled basemap that has several group layers that have min and max scales in the parent layers. For example, the layer that I am using in the xml is https://myserver/arcgis/rest/services/Maps/BaseMap/MapServer/110. That layer has a parent layer with a min and max scale (the layer itself does not have a min or max scale, i.e. it is type Feature Layer). In the older versions of the eSearch Widget, the search result graphic was I believe added to a graphics layer, which was added to the map, thus it appeared at all scales. Could you give me a pointer as to what I may be able to do to get the graphic to not be bound by the min and max scale of its parent layer? The rest service is behind a firewall. I attached a screen shot of the service, where layer 110 is the Feature Layer that is being queried in the widget, and layer 107 is the group layer that has the min and max scale that is limiting the graphic's visibility.

Yes, that worked! Thanks so much for the reference. OpenScales is a great resource. Jim Faron Austin Independent School District ... View more
