I heard that ESRI has a new flexviewer and flashbuilder coming out.  Has anyone heard of when it will be released, what version it will be and the enhancements? Angie, The current version is the ArcGIS Viewer 3.0 for Flex and the next version will ArcGIS Viewer 3.1 for Flex.  It is currently planned for release in late November or December. The API, the Viewer and the application builder will all have many enhancements and several bug fixes.  We're planning to post more details about it in the coming weeks. flashbuilder is an Adobe product, currently version 4.6, but with Adobe Flash Builder 4.7 already in public beta. http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashbuilder4-7/ ...

[RPC Fault faultString="Invalid or missing input parameters." faultCode="400" faultDetail="the input is not a geographic or projected coordinate system"] This is an error response returned from a GeometryService. Anjelina, could you use a tool like httpfox/firebug in Firefox, Chrome developer tools etc to see the actual request (the URL and the parameters) being sent by your application to your GeometryService? ...

...a couple of warnings: 3606: 'addEventListener' has been deprecated.  Please use 'AppEvent.addListener'. 3606: 'dispatchEvent' has been deprecated.  Please use 'appEvent.dispatch'. May be someone out there will help me out to clear them the widget works but I will feel better without the warnings. Daniel, The deprecation notes is just that a notice that we plan to remove them in some later release, probably not until 4.0, and since this functionality will be part of the 3.1 release, you might not want to worry about those warnings for now. Thanks Bjorn! When this new release Willi be available? Francesco, We are planning to release 3.1 later this year, probably December. ... View more

The question is with shapefiles published to ArcGIS Online, so a hosted Feature Service. When actually logged into ArcGIS Online (via arcgis.com) we can edit and save with no problem. How do we do the same through our mobile app. Applyedits sends nothing to the server, it simply updates the local (on mobile device) copy of the data. We want to actually update the ArcGIS Online source. My first guess is that it is either something special about your hosted shapefile-based feature layer, or something about your code for working with featurelayers locally. To test the first case: Try testing with http://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/PoolPermits/FeatureServer/0 To test the second case: If you are working with a feature layer (not using FeatureCollection) then applyEdits should do the right thing.  Could you test and verify that?  If you are using a feature layer (with a featurecollection), then applyEdits will not work they way I think you are trying to use it. You would normally use FeatureCollection OR server-based data, not both at the same time. Look at  FeatureLayerTask which is what the feature layer is using under the hood. I think that's might be your best bet. ... View more

is it possible to change the projection coordinates system, e.g. to from Mercator to North Pole? No, you cannot change the projection of the tiled maps.  The tiles have already been created, and there is no on-the-fly projection of them on the client. ... View more

So, what you are saying...there is no way to make only the visible layers show up in the legend on the layout in 3.0???? Not if you are using the compiled flex viewer or application builder. ... View more

Bookmark ... the vertical scrollbar Are you using the esri-compiled Bookmark widget? and Elevation Profile Widget created by markdeaton (markdeaton has provided the source code for the widget, but we don't possess the tools and the skills for re-compiling) Mark updated the download a while back - it contains a 3.0 compiled widget. ...

This link in the Esri files helped me figure it out http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapps/flexviewer/help/index.html#//01m30000000t000000 Hope this helps some others FYI - The 3.0 version of that doc is at http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-viewer/concepts/index.html#/Pop_up_configuration_files/01m30000002q000000/ Also, just a minor note about ...documentation has useThousandSeparator in the popup.xml it needs to be usethousandseparator. Since 2.3, there is an extra "s" in that tag - "usethousandsseparator" - which better syncs with the API (except for the casing which is always camelCase in the API, but all lowercase in the viewer configuration files. ...

...why isn't there a sample in the samples gallery showing this functionality and how to use it? There is.  All samples for infoWindowRenderer automatically use ContentNavigator, you can see this in action with for example: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-api/samples/index.html#/InfoWindows_for_FeatureLayer/01nq00000057000000/ http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-api/samples/index.html#/Clustering/01nq00000024000000/ But we need to at least beef up the API Reference for ContentNavigator to better explain this. ...

...where i can modify this code to for e.g provide my own services to populate the basemap button(?)... FYI: For that specific example, you do not need to modify any source code.  You can just add your own services in the config.xml. http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-viewer/concepts/index.html#/Map_Switcher_widget/01m30000003w000000/ To learn more about developing with the source code, it will really help if you have a basic understanding of ActionScript and Flex.  Adobe has good information at their web site, e.g. free Flex-in-a-week videos at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/videotraining.html.  Once you know a litle about ActionScript & Flex (or if you think you can just wing that), then head over to http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-viewer/concepts/index.html#/Getting_started_for_developers/01m30000001q000000/ for more information. ...
