My app experiences this as well.  Almost every time i load the map 4 to 6 of my external services fail to laod.  I hit refresh and they all come into the web app, like clockwork. ... View more

cool widget, thanks for sharing. question: does the model factor current wind into the model?  if not, that's seems as key as the chem type, for example.  ... View more

thanks! so to conclude: if you own the item, your popup configurations carry. if you dont own the item, they will not ... View more

This is a big issue.  when you style a hosted feature layer, at minimum the order in the styling should be what sets the symbol levels.. ... View more

After reviewing some other input, I would agree on an "Enhanced Layer List" widget.  One that supports groupings of layers by tabs or some other clever way. ... View more

I would love to see two widgets: A widget that shows GIS data in ur WWROOT folder.  So for example, If I drop a folder (with a shapefile, or GBD) into a specific folder, you can access it in the app. Also, a better "Add Data" widget.  One that supports the adding of REST endpoints, Shapefiles, and GDB's. (with option to add layer to your layer list) ...

really wish this was a capability in the viewer for flex.  I dont even think it can be done in the JS API either (please correct me if im wrong).  THis is something I hear A LOT of people asking for - not sure why you cant do it in arcgis online, or other Esri technologies (outside arcmap of course). ...

I just went through the steps again. Opened an MXD, Added a SHP file to MXD Shared (published) as service  (this is when it stores the data in a temporary file, do i need to do something else with the stoprage of data?) Consumed and displayed in my flex viewer Returned to mxd with shapefile. Edited shapefile (changed names of features) Saved changes in editing session. Closed arcmap Went back into my flex application that pulls in the published layer and there was no change at all, feature service shares same old data that i published in steps above.  I dont understand how updating your shapefile dynamically updates your map service.  I've just never heard of that.  ...

In my experience, when i "publish a webservice that hits the shapefile," all of that data behind the shapefile (in the dbf) is cached. In other words, if I publish a shapefile as a service and consume that with my flex viewer, the data behind the shapefile is merely stored with i share/publish.  So if I go into arcmap and update that shapefile and save it, nothing changes to the actual rest service im pulling into the viewer.  The service isnt automatically updated. I need to share (republish) that shapefile to overwrite the current service. You must know how to do something i do not... ... View more
