I'm trying to use the Social Media application located at Public Information Map   I'm running into some issues using the twitter functionality. I am unable to obtain tweets from a user (ie., @ESRI).  I'm surprised that no-one is providing georeferenced tweets.   Ideas, or examples of how to view georeferenced tweets from a user? ...

A few questions about your use of ESRI Leaflet: How fast is it compared to using ArcGIS JavaScript API Compact version (ie. download times)? Just wanted to get some ideas before jumping in. I have an app that I'll be converting to a new version, and performance is an issue. So I'm thinking about potentially using Leaflet. Our Spatial query stuff is quite complicated, so do Leaflets have many of the QueryTask concepts? Also, need some pretty advanced Legend stuff theoretically.  Oh, and the main thing is that this app runs on all platforms and devices, so it needs to work well in all environments. Also wondering how it does for building fairly robust applications? Thanks. Karen ... View more

I'm wondering if many folks on this forum have worked with ESRI Leaflet?  Experience?  How fast is it compared to using ArcGIS JavaScript API Compact version (ie. download times)?

Also, need some pretty advanced Legend stuff theoretically.  Oh, and the main thing is that this app runs on all platforms and devices, so it needs to work well in all environments. Is there a Forum specifically for ESRI Leaflet? I know the product is still in beta, so just curious if such a thing exists? Thanks for the info. Karen ... View more

In the JavaScript API, there's FeatureLayer and LabelLayer classes. However, the LabelLayer class does not currently deal with conflict resolution of the labels. The labels need to be better associated with the graphics of the FeatureLayer, and supported by the same "conflict resolution" issues that face those graphics (ie., overlapping graphics). We ran into this when attempting to handle overlapping SimpleMarkerSymbols with labels. You could not tell which marker symbol the label was associated with. And in cases where part of the simple marker symbol was showing up, the label should have also shown up.  Your samples lead us to handling this with icon marker symbols, but we're dealing with thousands of these with unique label values so the icon marker symbols won't cut it.   We also researched using SVG graphics to solve this problem but since we can only use a path element, we had no way to associate a marker and a text together. So  possibly providing more capabilities with SVG graphics could help solve this problem. ... View more

I need to generate some labels on top of simple marker symbols. I used LabelLayers for this. But the problem is that the labels don't seem to respond to conflicts between features that are close together.   The Problem is also described here: https://community.esri.com/message/103328?sr=search&searchId=aab9ec29-14ad-4265-bc90-553a907a90a5&searchIndex=0#103328 But is there another method to place labels on top of SimpleMarkerSymbols?  I cant use PictureMarkerSymbols because there's way too many of them. Thanks. Karen ... View more

We are changing the min and max scales of dynamic map service sublayers at startup using a configuration parameter.  The map responds to these layers fine. Layers turn on and off when they are supposed to. However, the Legend Dijit does not respond properly to these changes. The legend dijit reacts to the original scales as defined by the .mxd. Is this a bug? The only workaround for this that I can see is generating Feature Layers for the Legend Dijit and setting the scales of the Feature Layer. ... View more

I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to change the value of the measurement dijit results on the fly. When I click the X/Y Tool, right now, the format is Longitude: <currentvalue><br>Latitude <currentValue>    But for this case, I want to be able to re-format it to something like Lat/Long: <current_latitude>,<current_longitude>.   Possible? I see the result and resultLabel classes but there's nothing in there that allows me to change the value when the value changes? ... View more

Just wondering if there's any good documentation that outlines the method to build an installation project of an ArcMap Class Library using the following: Visual Studio 2012, InstallShield LE and  esriregasm? I'm not totally clear on the steps to make sure the .ecfg files are placed in the clients <CommonFiles>\ArcGIS\Desktop10.2\Configuration\CATID, and the esriregasm tool is run on them? ... View more

I'm generating some .ecfg files using post build events in my projects. I'm using .NET 4.5 and Visual Studio 2012. My file names are in the following format: {<guid_id>}_<nameOfClass>.ecfg But I noticed that most of the other ones are just <nameOfClass>.ecfg I didn't see anything in ESRIRegasm.exe to name mine <nameOfClass>.ecfg. How do I do this? ... View more

Is there any way to change the symbology for a legend item associated with layer located in a Dynamic Map Service? I think thats a base64 image. Possibly by using .css?  I dont see anything in the JavaScript API to do this. We have some roads that we're rendering in our application (gravel roads), and the dashes between the alternating colors are fairly long. But on the associated legend item, only one of the colors appear. Thus, the road looks like a solid color'ed road, not a dashed road.  Would be nice to possibly make the image a little wider perhaps. Ideas? Thanks. Karen ... View more
