... a point layer to be consumed by the Arcgis Viewer for Flex with an incorporated identify widget. Jared, have you looked at using built-in popup windows instead of the Identify Widget. This functionality was added to the ArcGIS Viewer for Flex 2.3.  It provides pretty much the same functionality (and works well with ArcGIS Online hosted services).  You specify pop-ups for the layers that you want people to get more information on. http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-viewer/concepts/index.html#/Configuring_pop_ups_in_Application_Builder/01m30000004p000000/ ...

It looks like the popup xml file can recognize some html element like <p>, but it won't recognize any style tags. The popup is using the HTML support that is part of the Adobe Flash Player. This support for HTML in the flash player is quite limiting, and a bit funky.  See http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-viewer/concepts/index.html#/Pop_up_configuration_files/01m30000002q000000/ for more info on that, or go to the Adobe page for more details: http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=textcontrols_04.html ...

I have created a geoprocessing service from the results of a Grouping Analysis (new at 10.1).  I included a result map serivce in my gp service, but I have not been able to get it to show up in my web app.  I can take the url built using the jobid and paste it into a web browser and see the map service, so I know it is being created. The source code for the FlexViewer's Geoprocessing widget can be really helpful when trying to create API applications using geoprocessing. For your case, see https://github.com/ArcGIS/ArcGISViewerForFlex/blob/master/src/widgets/Geoprocessing/GeoprocessingWidget.mxml private function processResultImageLayer(paramName:String):void {     var lastExecutedJob:JobInfo = gp.submitJobLastResult;     var resultImageLayer:GPResultImageLayer = gp.getResultImageLayer(lastExecutedJob.jobId, paramName);     resultImageLayer.id = paramName;     resultImageLayer.name = ("hiddenLayer_" + paramName);     resultImageLayersOnMap.push(resultImageLayer);     map.addLayer(resultImageLayer);     layerOrderer.orderLayers(); } ...

Hello, I ama using the Arcgis server API for flex (2.5).\ ... However, it doesn't work, the legend is not displayed. I don't know why. Does the map display correctly? Does the legend display the no-layers icon? What version of server do you use?  You will need ArcGIS Server 10.1 SP1 or later (see requirements at http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/flex/apiref/com/esri/ags/components/Legend.html) If you go to the service directory (something like http://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/Census/MapServer), does it show "Legend"? P.S. I dont' have a ATiledMapServiceLayer. do you thing that I should have one ? You don't need to. Depending on what you are trying to do, it might be good to have one... ... View more

...Now that I have flash builder I will be able to "consume" my web maps that I created in App builder 3.0 on tabulates Correct. I also downloaded ArcGis API for flex. With these I can create my own "app" that will be able to consume my app builder maps on tabulates. Yes - see my answer to the same question at http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/70008-Confused-need-suggestions-on-best-way-to-consume-my-flex-builder-maps?p=245006&viewfull=1#post245006 Here's another question: Our ultimate goal is to put all of our data in the cloud. either on Amazon or arcgis on-line. Is it possible ti upload our app builder maps to the cloud then have them consume the maps from the cloud on tabulates? I'm not sure what you mean with "app builder maps" - if you are referring to the application builder for ArcGIS Viewer for Flex - then "no".  If you are referring to "web maps" created on ArcGIS.com, then "yes". If I understand your scenario right, your "apps" would be installed on the devices/tables, your "web map" (configurations) would come from ArcGIS.com or your own Portal for ArcGIS, and the actual data could come from somewhere in the cloud (Amazon, ArcGIS.com etc).  So, in short, yes - all the data would be in the cloud. ...

Is there a walk-through example of creating template?  I only have one attribute I want to be updatable (click on the existing feature and have a drop down selection of 1,2,3 or 4), no drawing/adding features. Wayne/Davis, The ArcGIS Desktop help have more information on Editing http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#/What_is_editing/01m500000003000000/ And creating feature services (including a link to a tutorial): http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#/What_is_a_feature_service/0154000002w8000000/ The part about only allowing people to update, not add/delete, is a functionality you can either set up in the service, or in the Flex Viewer. ...

When you create a new feature in a feature service that has attachments, the edit widget doesn't let you add attachments right away. A feature has to be created fist, then edited again if you want to add attachments. Does anyone know what to change to fix this? Short answer: This is how it works in the ArcGIS API 3.0 for Flex (which is different from 2.x) and the underlying ArcGIS Server (an attachment can't be added until a feature has been created and exist on the server). Long answer: At 2.x when you clicked to create a feature, the request to create the feature was sent first, then the input boxes for attributes (and attachments) was popped up. ArcGIS 10.1 added the capability to allowed people to create, but not update, features �?? which (with the 2.x logic) would never work, as you wouldn't be able to set the attributes at all in this particular case. At 3.0, the created feature is not sent to the server until the attributes have been popped up and user clicked OK.  Since you cannot add attachments to a feature until it exists, this also means that you can�??t add an attachment in the same request.  For future versions, we are considering an API enhancement to once again support the earlier workflow within the Edit widget. ...

Is this possible with the editwidget or some other widget:  Allow users via the webviewer to click on a feature in a featurelayer and have a popup show the value for a particular field for that featuer and allow the user to edit that value (from a dropdown of selections)?  I don't see how to do this.  Any help is appreciated. Yes, that is possible with the Edit widget.  Your data needs to be coming from an ArcGIS Server Feature Service (and be editable).

What I am confused about is, when I add in using the Viewer for Flex 3.0 user interface and then preview it, it gives me only one line If the service supports a single line input (like the one you are using), then the widget will default to use that (single line input).  Unless you specify the following in your locate widget xml file: <usesingleline>false</usesingleline> See http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-viewer/concepts/index.html#/Locate_widget_tags/01m30000000r000000/ ...
