OK - reviving thread after 3.8 says this can be done.  I am trying now to merge the functionality into the context menu sample https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/jssamples/graphics_contextmenu.html My code is Non-AMD so not sure if I can get this working. Cheers ACM PS this is as far as I have got     ctxMenuForGraphics.addChild(new dijit.MenuItem({         label: "Rotate/Scale",         onClick: function () {             if (selected.geometry.type !== "Point") {                                if (selected.symbol.declaredClass === "esri.symbol.TextSymbol") {                                        editToolbar.activate(esri.toolbars.Edit.EDIT_TEXT, selected);                                   }                 else {                     editToolbar.activate(esri.toolbars.Edit.ROTATE | esri.toolbars.Edit.SCALE, selected);                 }             } else {                     alert("Not implemented");             }         }     })); But it fails with Uncaught Error: [esri.toolbars.Edit::activate] Unable to activate the tool.

Are you using Windows XP (still) by any chance? WE've had exactly this (well it sounds like it) flashing black screen when over various panels. It turns out to be graphics card related with XP - to fix it we turned down the Graphic Hardware Acceleration - we found two notches down from the lowest worked fine. Credit here to Martin on our internal help desk, who had seem similar issues with other applications. Not an issue with Windows 7 (afaik) ACM ... View more

Thanks for that - could you add the bug number please, so that I can keep an eye on the release info (I'm guessing ArcGIS server is the product affected) ... View more

Cool - I'll raise it with our local support desk ... View more

I did think of having text and points in different graphics layers, but that would be a big re-write.  Not only do I add these to the map, but I also add the definition to Local Storage, so when users go back into the map any added annotation re-appears.  I'd have to write a few extra loops within the process of retrieving the data from Local Storage.  Which I can do, but if there was an acceptance that this was a bug then I can tell the users that and hope esri fix it. ...

OK - old thread and probably old issue, but one just reported to me. By using the advice above my text prints fine - the size is correct and it all looks OK. HOWEVER If the user adds a graphic point first - just that a point.  Then adds text, when it prints no text is printed If the user adds text first, the a plain point, just the text is printed. Any ideas before I start pulling my code apart. ACM ... View more

looks nice - one thing that I am trying to do with my current TOC is to re-create the ArcIMS TOC from David Bollinger.  In this one there was an option of a "toggle group" (I think it was called) where only one item was allowed on.  For me I would use it for the TOC for my aerial map service, so only one year's photos can be requested.  Getting more than one year is silly as they just appear on top of each other (until I work out layer based transparency sliders) and have a resource hit on the server.

bump - this is now a breaking issue.  IE10 (running in IE9 mode to get around the zoom box issue) is breaking and simply locking up with this message within minutes. Linked to line 8840 in my case.  Seems to be tied in with a request for an identify task. On my expanded version of the init.js file this seems to be the dad part                                 var q = b(a.document, "mousedown, touchstart", function (a) {                                    f._justMouseDowned = !0;                                     setTimeout(function () {                                         f._justMouseDowned = !1                                     }, 0); I wonder if it is the touchstart event that is the issue?  I can't see a similar chunk in 3.5 .Edit - so I removed the touchstart event from that bit of code and so far no errors - hard to say for sure as it didn't always happen.  But the ammount of testing I have done would have triggered it . ...
