I'm not sure why your custom font isn't coming through.  Here are a few comments/questions that might help... Is it the labels of the features that are using a specific font?  If so, since the FeatureLayer is drawn client side, each user would need to have that font installed on their computer. Or is it the actual symbol that was created using that font? If for example using a "character marker symbol", then ArcGIS Server should convert that marker to an image that can be used by all clients (even if they don't have the font). Go to your ArcGIS Service directory, navigate to the specific layer in your map service, then look at the "Drawing Info->Renderer", you should see the text "Picture Marker Symbol" followed by the actual symbol used. Does it look "right" if you look at the service using preview from ArcGIS Server ("View In ... JavaScript")? Does it look "right" if you add your service as a layer of type "dynamic" to your FlexViewer application? ... View more

Yes, you can add multiple layers of type 'feature' in the main configuration file (config.xml). config-map.xml is just another example of a main configuration file. ... View more

Cynthia (and others), to migrate your 2.1 viewers: A) If working with the compiled version: Download the new viewer. Copy your modified xml's file over to the new viewer. Review What's new to see if there's something new you want to take advantage of. B) If working with the source code: Download the new viewer. Copy your modified xml's file over to the new viewer. Review What's new to see if there's something new you want to take advantage of. For changes made in the mxml files ... depends.  If it was something that was fixed, then do nothing.  For fixes that you want to migrate over, the best way is probably to compare that specific mxml and integrate your changes with ours. ...

Pedro, about the Print Widget: The only changes to the Print Widget between 2.2. and 2.1 was related to localization.  The actual printing should be the same for both versions.  Maybe the print differences you are seeing is based on the size of your browser at the time of printing.  For example, if you're browser is "tall", you will get get a different printout than if you resize to be "wide". ...

Selecting/editing/moving text is not supported in version 2.2 Actually, the first bug isn't 100% correct.  You can "edit" a drawn rectangle by moving it, but you can not scale and rotate it.  We are planning to add the "scale" (i.e. re-sizing) of rectangles (but not rotate since then it's not really an extent any more. ...

I am using 2.X API and Flex 3.2. Are you sure about that?  The 2.x API requires Adobe Flex 4 SDK... ... View more

Robert, thanks for being first to report that no-extent-editing bug.  Chris, this is why you don't see the resize handles for rectangles. Chris, while there are plans for a more complete print solution with ArcGIS Server, it will probably be released post-2.3. As for general 2.3 plans, we will be working on the detailed plans next week. We've added an entry to our FAQ called "What about the next version (2.3)?" to share an initial list of some of the items we are considering for the next version. http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapps/flexviewer/help/index.html#faq.htm ...

Yes, this is a bug. ... View more

Could the moderators please tell us if we need to check both forums for viewer-specific posts? Yes, since users are posting viewer-related posts in both forums, you probably should look in both forums. If I see questions in the API Forum that are clearly about configuring viewer, we'll move them to the viewer forum, but leave a redirect in place for one month in the API forum. ... View more

I want do not want to show logo, title, or subtitle but instead move the widget container to the left. Remove logo, title, subtitle from your config.xml. To align the widget icons to the left, go into HeaderControllerWidget and change the "center" below to "left" (at least that's what I think you are trying to do): <mx:HBox id="widgetBox"           width="100%"           horizontalAlign="center"> ...

Greg, the GeoRSS widget in the Flex Viewer is different from the GeoRSS sample in the Flex API. Dorothy, instead of copy/paste (I'm guessing from the web site sample explorer), have you tried using the sample files that are in the Flex API download?  When you downloaded the API Library (the zip file), it contains both "the swc" as well as all the samples. This way you don't have to worry about having all the files, or copying them in to the right subfolder path.  Try setting up a fresh Flex project in Flash Builder 4, using the Adobe 4 SDK, and make sure the Esri Flex API ("the swc") is referenced.  See http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/flex/help/index.html#getting_started.htm for details. If this doesn't work for you, please let us know which IDE, SDK, and API versions you are using. ... View more

Not out of the box.  The 2.1 Navigation Widget which has the navigation controls is a separate widget from the "header". ... View more

Just to clarify: No, you cannot access it anyway you want.  Specifically, you are not allowed to access the tiles directly. But ... as pointed out in Rex's blog that Derek links to, it is OK to use Google Maps as long as you connect to Google Maps with their interface/API.  Thus it can be legal to use Google Maps together with the ArcGIS API for Flex.  While Google doesn't have a Silverlight API, they do have an ActionScript API.  So for Flex applications, you are not limited to the "Google Static Maps API" (with the size limite), but can instead use their "Google Maps API for Flash" for maps of any size. Disclaimer: this is my interpretation and I have no legal expertise.  See http://code.google.com/apis/maps/terms.html for the google legalese. ... View more
