Thanks, but that still sorts it 001 010 011 002 I'll check out the dgrid next work day, but this is really for the last touch to an almost finished product - the next version I'll look at new stuff + making all AMD. The results are actually from a find results set.  Is there any way that I can sort that object based on an attribute before it gets attached to the data grid? Cheers ACM ... View more

Yep - you had to add a query statement for some reason in the layer, but 1=1 (ie everything) did the trick. I think build 2.4 did it. On the other hand if you had grouped lots of attribute, (say cad feature = Building, Garage, Shed) as one style, the TOC would break them out again. ... View more

Nianwei Liu - this may be a caching/IIS/IE thing but my users are mentioning that sometime the expand button (the little cross) vanishes from collapsed TOCs - I've yet to be able to repeat this, but when it does happen a clear of the IE cache seems to work. Has anyone else had these issues? Cheers ACM ... View more

🙂 Now why didn't anyone at Esri state the above - so, in Microsoft term, "This behaviour is by design" The "bug" should remain through, but be changed to say "make the documentation clear" ... View more

I gave it a good try, but for now defeated.  I worked out my wkid issue was something to do with my local 3.5 - running it with esr 3.6 moved on to the next errors - a shed load of parser issues. So, I will put this aside for now, and concentrate on stuff my users are asking for - like a constrained Floatingpane 🙂 Thanks for the help so far - at least I have a better understanding. ACM ...

Yep - Hjelmeland has been PMing me with lots of suggestions -  on the last go we took working code of his and dropped my map service in.  It worked on his code.  The only difference I can see is if I examine the map object, on the working code we have spatialReference: Object latestWkid: 27700 wkid: 27700 __proto__: Object updating: false width: 1680 wrapAround180: fal On mine spatialReference: Objectwkid: 27700 __proto__: Object updating: false width: 1435 wrapAround180: false for the SpatialReference object - you'll notice the additional "latestWkid" attribute. Cheers ACM Edit nearly there - my code was a horrid mix of legacy and AMD, and I had a new AMD style chunk basically doing the same stuff I'd inserted ages back.  Removing this gives me an overview map (breaks loads of other stuff until I reinsert it al in the right place) Edit #2 No idea - a brief glimpse was lost again 😞 will still work on it. ...

OK - slowly making progress, but I am hitting (what I think) are scope issues. I am creating an overview map.  I have the require and attribute all done - require(["esri/map", "esri/layers/ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer", "esri/layers/ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer", "esri/geometry/Extent", "esri/layers/FeatureLayer", "agsjs/dijit/TOC", "esri/symbols/SimpleFillSymbol", "esri/symbols/SimpleLineSymbol", "dojo/_base/Color", "esri/dijit/OverviewMap", "dojo/parser", "dojo/domReady!" ], function (           Map,           ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer,           ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer,           Extent,           FeatureLayer,           TOC,           SimpleFillSymbol,           SimpleLineSymbol,           Color,           OverviewMap,           parser           ) { then I create the ovmap var overviewMapDijit = new OverviewMap({        map: map,         expandFactor: 2,         visible: true,         height: 230,         width: 230     }); but get Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'wkid' of undefined As if the map doesn't exist - I have a "var map;" earlier of course - what I have, is, more or less the same as https://developers.arcgis.com/en/javascript/jssamples/widget_overviewmap.html cheers ACM ...

<lightbulb>  (well, low energy, dimmer light bulb, that has occasional brown-outs)  I'm sort of seeing it now.  Gives me an excuse to totally re-structure my code as I move each bit over from my main init function ... View more

😉 Er, sorry for sounding silly, but aren't those two code blocks identical?  I think I know what you mean.  Ah I see it now, the Upper case M in the first one and no 'esri'.  Doh! Anyway, it's Friday afternoon where I am, it is sunny and will remain so for the weekend, so I'm off home! ... View more

Thanks - that helps a bit- amazingly just having just the modules required and a minimal second arg it still allworks - I guess the rest still being old style just picks up. Any idea where the link should go to to show "preferred argument aliases for Esri modules" which I guess is the list I add to the second arg for all the modules I am referencing? ACM ... View more

Ok - with my major JSAPI project about to be fully live I thought I'd try to get my head around AMD, but failed, almost at the start. For example the link https://developers.arcgis.com/en/javascript/jsapi/argument_aliases-amd.html on this page https://developers.arcgis.com/en/javascript/jstutorials/ 404s , so I am strugling to work out what exactly the function inside the require is for <script>   require(["esri/map"], function(Map) { ... }); </script> For a simple map it seems only to define the map, but WTF is this all about? function(dom, domAttr, array, Color, parser, esriConfig, Map, Graphic, GeometryService, BufferParameters, Draw, SimpleMarkerSymbol, SimpleLineSymbol, SimpleFillSymbol) So, I'm giving up for now, and my code will be a horrid mix for a while. I may return later when there are better guides ACM ... View more

OK - update #2 - whilst the CSS .esriOverviewMap .ovwHighlight {         border: solid 2px #004F00 !important;          background-color: transparent !important;    } LOOKS like it works in print preview - when it is actually printed out in IE8 the box is still solid. IE10 works fine, but alas, I am stuck to IE8 for the next 6 months ACM ... View more

Hi Using the standard Print Widget you have three potential "things" to add your own text - I use them all, CopyrightText, authortext and titletext - the copyright and title I use for what they are supposed to be for.  the author I use for user added comments/text.  But there is no reason, say if you have a fixed title and copyright, to add these directly to the MXD in ArcMap and use those two things to hold extra user generated content.
