The Editor supports GraphicsLayer too. If you choose to use FeatureLayer, you will need an editable feature service. I'm not sure what other MXD settings are necessary. You can probably check the feature service in the sample and view it in the browser to get an idea of what it would look like. Yes you will need at least ArcGIS API for SL/WPF v2.0, but there were bug fixes in v2.1 regarding Snapping. If you can use v2.1 beta, RC is coming up soon. You will then need ArcGIS Server 10 and also SL 4. As far as SL4 and VS 2008 compatibility, here's a link to MS forum http://forums.silverlight.net/forums/p/178873/402929.aspx. We use VS 2010 though. Cool Jennifer.. Do you have any links or documentation on what is involved on an "Editable feature Service"? I just need to know the ends and outs of making a Layer in my Web Application editable. Will I be able to do multi-user editing? Many thanks Jennifer

Sure, you can look at this sample: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/2.1/samples/start.htm#EditToolsAutoSave Notice that the map has attached properties SnapKey and SnapDistance, the Editor uses this. If you activate the EditVertices button, key down on S while moving a vertex, it will snap to other vertices on another feature other than itself. If SnapKey or SnapDistance is not set, they get default by values (Ctrl, 15) as in the EditorWidget sample in our SDK http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/2.1/samples/start.htm#ToolkitEditorWidget. Hi Jennifer, just to verify.. In order for me to duplicate what is in that sample link, I will need ArcGIS Server 10, I assume the latest and greatest Silverlight (version 4.0 maybe?), and Visual Studio 2010? Did I miss anything? There is no chance I can duplicate the snapping in an editing environment just using Visual studio 2008 with ArcGIS Server 10 and Silverlight 4.0 is there? My last question is I notice in the XAML the "Editable Layer" is classified as a "FeatureLayer" but what extra steps do I need to take to make a layer (a layer from my map service from my mxd) an "Editable Layer" besides just declaring it a FeatureLayer in my XAML? Thank you so much for the insight Jennifer.. -Josh

I'm simply looking for a way or possibly a template that allows for editing a feature layers geometry and snapping it to another layer. I've been looking on resources.arcgis.com but any advice is appreciated. Thanks

Hi Dale- Thanks for the post and I might go that route but I still have one more question on the Geoprocessing route. In the attached picture, I have two parameters. One is the Feature Layer and the other is a parameter called "Attributes" that is of type Field and it shows the Column Names of the Feature Layer chosen when I run the tool. My question is can I have a Third parameter that will show the Values of the Column Name chosen (IE show values of second parameter chosen)??? This should be possible so do you know what Type of parameter and how I can do this? This would be a big help if I could add that third parameter to get the values. Thanks

Hello All- I have a python script that I have imported into my toolbox. I need three Parameters for this script and I found it easiest to use ArcToolbox. by right clicking the script, I go to properties and then to Parameters. I added a Parameter called Input_Data of Type "Feature Layer". I added a second Parameter of Type "Field" and set it to be Obtained from Input_Data so that it will show all the Attributes of that Layer. My third Parameter is the question I have.. I want it to show all the Values of whichever Attribute is Selected but when I add the Parameter of Type "Field" and select Obtained from, it only shows Input_Data as an option and not the second Parameter. How can I do this? I created a picture but unfortunately the ESRI site isn't allowing any attachments at the moment.

In light of ArcGIS Server not recognizing the "Query Builder" wizard when using the Select By Attributes tool, I'm wondering if there is a way to manually construct the Query Builder? So for instance, (see attached picture) based on the user first selecting which feature layer they want to run query against, a second dropdown list would then show All the Attributes associated with that feature layer. A third dropdown list would then contain the values from which attribute the user chose. So for example, If I wanted to run this Query "Active" = 'N' on the Wells layer. Does anyone have any python to get me started here? many thanks

Thanks Dale. So in other words, the user will still have to type SQL in order to fill the SQL expression? I'm not sure if that will work for me 😞 Do you have any more suggestions? Thank you for your time Dale

Can someone please help me here?? I don't understand why the "Query Builder" won't show up when I publish the Toolbox to a service. That is pretty important to have so has ESRI not included that with ArcGIS Server? My users are asking for a SelectByAttribute type of tool in the Web Applications and my model works perfect in ArcMap because it allows users to use the "Query Builder" to create their SQL syntax but that Query Builder does Not show up in Web App after publishing that toolbox. Am I missing something?? Thanks..

Hi Gerry- Attached is my python script. Could you give me an idea of where to put your code and what basic changes I need to implement?

In my attached script, I simply let the user choose which layer from table of contents they want to do a SelectbyAttributes and then do a FeatureclasstoFeatureclass so they can have a shapefile of the query results. My problem is that one of the required parameters for FeatureclasstoFeatureclass requires a Name for the output shapefile. So how can I get which layer the user chose as the Name of the output shapefile?? If I can't do this through my model and I export my model to python, how can I accomplish this through python instead? Many thanks..

Does anyone have any ideas?? It's quite aggravating.. I attached two screenshots that show the button and query builder window when using the SelectbyAttributes tool within model builder of ArcMap. ArcGIS Server does not show that button when I publish it as a service for some reason. Ideas? Thoughts? Hello All- I made a simple model for Selecting by Attrubutes and it works fine in ArcMap. The main thing is that the user can click the calculator icon and get the Query Builder window to help them create the SQL statement. Why won't this show up in ArcGIS Server? The QueryBuilder.png shows my model and the other picture is what I see in ArcGIs Server Web App Thanks..

Does anyone have a model or python script that allows users to Select by Attributes (they can choose from a dropdown which layer they want And they can set their expression)? Thanks

If you have ArcGIS Manager installed, can you get to?: http://localhost/arcgis/manager Also try: http://127.0.0.1/arcgis/rest/services or http://<machinename or IP>/arcgis/rest/services You may also want to look in IIS to see how your bindings are configured. Hi Paul- I can't get either of those links to work. I still get a page cannot be found. What do I need to check for on the IIS side of things? I'm still able to create map services and view them but not much else.

‎08-19-2010

This should be a pretty simple fix but it has slipped my mind at this point. I have been able to view the services running on my machine using http://localhost/arcgis/rest/services for the past few weeks but for some reason I get a Page Cannot be Found today. arcGIS Server is running and I was able to make map services through Catalog. Whats the deal here? Many Thanks
