...suggested we just copy the old xml into the new but how do I know what exactly to copy? I meant copy the whole xml file (not parts of it), thus overwriting the new default one. For example, if you made changes to the config.xml you can copy that file into the new viewer. The same for any widget configuration file (*.xml) that you have customized. We try to make the viewer backward compatible as much as possible, so this should work for most scenarios (from 2.1 and later). You should also read the "what's new" to see what have changed. Hope this helps...

No, the Flex API doesn't support reading shapefiles. In addition, any browser application will generally not be able to read files directly from your local file system (for security reasons). However, I think some people have extended the API with custom code to read shape files, but the shape files still need to be on a web server (or uploaded). Alternatively, you can (with the Flex API) use an Adobe AIR application (which works more like a desktop application) to be able to read local files. However, you would still need some custom code to read the shapefiles.

Yes, you can use a PictureMarkerSymbol: "The image format can be either JPG, GIF, PNG, SWF or SVG. While SVG images must be embedded within the application, all other image formats can be either embedded within the application or referenced by URL. " You can search our samples for PictureMarkerSymbol. It shows five samples including one sample with pulsating swf. That sample is about time-enabled layers, but I think you can find what you are looking for there.

Hugo, thanks for your feedback on the documentation. We only make major changes to the documentation when we release a new version. We don't have plans (nor resources) to document every protected method. However, we do try to document classes and methods as needed to enable users to extend the API for specific use cases. For example, symbols, renderers, layers and tasks. If there are specific additional use cases, we can help explain here on the forum as well as update the documentation if it seems to be a common use case. Again, big thanks to everyone who gives us feedback on our documentation and API 🙂

Yes, see the thread: http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/19661-FindParameters-layerDefinitions Or the REST What's New (for 10) at http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisserver/10.0/apis/rest/whatsnew.html "Identify and Find operations now support a new layerDefs parameter." Or our updated doc for IdentifyTask - layerDefinitions property: "Requires ArcGIS Server 10.0 or above."

The main difference to me is that Identify works off a full map service, while Query works on a single layer (or table) in a service. Many of the properties are also different (partly because of the above difference).

Just FYI that the documentation have been updated with this information, as well as some similar places where the "ArcGIS Server 10 is required" info was missing. FindParameters - layerDefinitions FindParameters - maxAllowableOffset IdentifyParameters - layerDefinitions IdentifyParameters - layerTimeOptions IdentifyParameters - maxAllowableOffset IdentifyParameters.html - timeExtent Query - maxAllowableOffset Query - objectIds Query - timeExtent Thanks for helping us make the documentation better 🙂

Peter, Microsoft have announced that beginning on May 1, 2011, the new map style will become the default and only road style available. This means that all versions of the Flex API will automatically have the new look and feel starting May 1 (unless Microsoft changes something). Until May 1 (as you pointed out), version 2.2 will give you the new Bing map style while older API versions will still show the old map style. "Bing Maps has introduced a new enhanced road map style for all Bing Maps APIs. This style is designed to improve readability and interaction for imagery with data overlays. This map style is in use on http://www.bing.com/maps. [...] On May 1, 2011 the new map style will become the only road style available." So even using 2.1 is only a temporary solution. To answer your question about options - the only options I can think of is to either convince Microsoft or create your own basemap.

Do you know if there is any plans to update more of the ArcGIS Online servers to showcase the ArcGIS Server 10 capabilities, like single line geocoding? Yes, single line geocoding is coming to the ArcGIS Online locators when they get updated to ArcGIS Server 10 SP1. My guess would be that this will happen no later than the DevSummit. Note that once it goes live, the Locate Widget will automatically start using it unless you have added <usesingleline>false</usesingleline>. From the documentation: <usesingleline> - If the locator supports single line geocoding, the widget will default to single line input. Set this to false to not use the singe line geocoder. http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapps/flexviewer/help/index.html#widgets/locate_widget.htm

As for snapping in the Flex API: Yes, this is in the pipeline for a future release. Possibly for 2.3.

Also, is the Adobe Flex 4 SDK a separate piece of software or is it integrated into the Flash Builder 4 IDE? The Adobe Flex 4 SDK is included as part of Flash Builder 4, but can also be downloaded separately from http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Download+Flex+4.

The first step would probably be to publish your map as a map service using ArcGIS Server. This is what the Web APIs (like Flex API) is using to consume your map. See for example - What is ArcGIS Server?.

Yes. See for example http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Topo_Map/MapServer/legend where the first four layers are all raster layers. Do you have a specific example where it is not working for you?
