dear Readers, buffer parameters help page talks about distances to be sent as an array. BufferParameters | API Reference | ArcGIS API for JavaScript 3.20  Question: 1. what is the purpose of sending an array - does it take more than 1 value - if yes, what is the significance of the other distance measurements. 2. Will it take negative numbers> if yes, do it have a special significance from a buffering perspective - say for a polygon? 3.  We have a request from the users to mark a buffer inside the polygon - a farm land and the application of manure has to be 100 feet from the fence line. so the farmer can apply manure for this crops that are far away from fence line by at least 100 ft.   3b. Is it possible to tell the buffer function in the geometry server to do this> thanks and regards ravi, ... View more

dear Readers, thanks a lot for taking the time to read my question: https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/3/jsapi/locator-amd.html#suggestlocations - has a simple example; I have made the changes as below:  var params = {                 text: "addressInput",                 categoies: ["place", "address"],                 location: map.extent.getCenter().normalize(),                 distance: 1000             };             geocodeLocator.suggestLocations(params).then(function (suggestions) {                 console.log(suggestions);  // to start with.             }); I have break points in this code (Chrome f12) and it is not hitting them. I am using esri/task/locator. the address search is working fine - a single address search with NOresult storage on a database is working fine.  V r using the geocode engine belonging to ESRI. the example url is not indicating it - do I need to capture dojo text entry into the addressInput text box - on. text change? any information will be greatly appreciated. regards ravi. ...

dear Readers, I followed the example mentioned for amd esri/tasks/locator as Locator. var geocodeLocator = new Locator("https://geocode.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/GeocodeServer"); I created a function and the code inside the function was the following: findAddress: function (streetAddress, countyFIPS, map) { if (streetAddress.length === 0) { alert('Please enter an address.'); return; } if (countyFIPS.length === 0) { alert('County is needed.'); return; } var searchAddress = { "Single Line Input": streetAddress }; // single element - not an array. var options = { address: searchAddress, outFields: ["Loc_name"]}; geocodeLocator.outSpatialReference = map.spatialReference; geocodeLocator.on("error", function (error) { alert('Error code: [' + error.error.httpCode.toString() + '.] ' + error.error.message); return; }); geocodeLocator.on("address-to-locations-complete", function (addressCandidates) { array.forEach(addressCandidates, function (eachAddressCandidate) { var test = ""; console.log("results:" + results.toString()); }); }); geocodeLocator.addressToLocations(options);   } {"spatialReference":{"wkid":102100,"latestWkid":3857},"candidates":[]} getting an empty address candidates - let alone score . lat long... any guidance will be greatly appreciated. regards ravi. ...
