Hello, Has anyone seen the problem where the scalebar becomes incorrect after a zoom or pan? When the map initially loads the scale looks about right. When I zoom in or pan, the scale bar refreshes with the wrong scale, eg it goes from measuring 0.3 km to 100km after zooming. See the before and after shots attached. ... View more

Hi, I'm using a template picker and I want to display the area of the polygon that the user creates as an attribute in the infoWindow that pops up after feature creation. By default, all the attributes I define for the feature class appear but I cannot access the SHAPE.area field that holds the information I want to display. Currently I'm using a 'onBeforeApplyEdits' event to populate certain attributes for display. I have created a my own 'Area' attribute but now I want to populate it with the correct value. As a work around I have calculated the value using callbacks but getting the value returned is not really working for me. Does anyone know of a way to do this? Mark ... View more

Hi, I'm using a template picker and when I set it up I specify that a rich text editor be shown for a certain attribute in the infoWindow ('HYPERLINK'). See my template definition below: function initEditor(results) {                 var layers = dojo.map(results, function(result) {                     return {featureLayer:result.layer, htmlFields:["HYPERLINK"]};                 });                 var templateLayers = dojo.map(results, function(result) {                     return result.layer;                 });                 var templatePicker = new esri.dijit.editing.TemplatePicker({                     featureLayers: templateLayers,                     rows: 'auto',                     columns: 3,                     style: "height: 100%;"                 },'divFeatureServiceDijit');                 templatePicker.startup();                 var settings = {                     templatePicker: templatePicker,                     map: map,                     geometryService: new esri.tasks.GeometryService("http://sampleserver3.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Geometry/GeometryServer"),                     layerInfos:layers,                     toolbarVisible: false,                     createOptions: { polygonDrawTools:[esri.dijit.editing.Editor.CREATE_TOOL_FREEHAND_POLYGON] }                 }                 var params = {settings: settings};                 var myEditor = new esri.dijit.editing.Editor(params);                 myEditor.startup();             } The problem is that when the infoWindow displays, the rich text editor isn't fully loaded. The outline is visible but none of the buttons are rendered. Interestingly, the buttons, though not rendered are selectable. If I create a web link using the link button, the dialogue appears and I can enter text into it. However, I can't click on the hyperlink after I set it and it is not saved to my SDE either. So, when I refresh and then click on the feature the web link is not there. If I don't use the web link button and just enter free text, the content is saved to the SDE. Has anyone else had trouble of this kind? Regards, Mark ... View more

Hi, I'm trying to edit the infoTemplate for a featureTemplate that I created. Basically, I want to change the format from the standard one that comes with the template picker. Does anyone know how to do this? Regards, Mark ... View more

Hi, Has anyone had the problem where the overview map does not redraw after panning within it? ie, I click on the overview map and then drag the map to a new position. My larger base map redraws fine but the overview map does not. It also does not redraw the overview map if I minimise and then open it. I've taken the suggestion of another forum posting and created a instance of the base map to be consumed by the overview map but that doesn't seem to make any difference. Any ideas? Mark ...

Hi, I'm using the template picker to create features from a given template. What I want to be able to do is to automatically set the value of an attribute for that feature. The value of the attribute will only be known at the time it is created. Basically, the web application I am building receives an id that I need to assign to each feature created. I've had a look through the forums and samples but can't see exactly how to go about this. Regards, Mark ... View more
