When I attempt to add a map service, I can make the map service appear in a browser window by clicking on 'Map Service'. When I click on the 'Add' button,  Esri Maps ToC window goes to the Map Contents tab, a long wait occurs, then an error message window appears, 'Add Failed/ The service could not be added to the map.' I am able to display a Feature Service in the map window in Excel. ... View more

I have a grid data set of categorized landcover. In Arcmap, I can click the 'i' tool, then click on the grid data and get a window that tells me about the grid, including a field called CLASS_NAME with values like 'Tropical or sub-tropical shrubland'. I have successfully created a tiled map service from this raster data, and it uses the same color scheme as in ArcMap. Also, a legend is created that has a lot of stray categories. Here is a web map made from this data: http://bit.ly/WwPO34 I was given this data so I dont know why the legend has so many extraneous values --- I guess the many black and grey unlabeled categories are trash pixels? I opened the attribute table in ArcMap and all it shows is 12 categories. For my purposes, I just hid the legend (cowards way out...;) I would like to enable popups so that I can click on the map and have the CLASS_NAME displayed. I read the ArcGIS Online doc. It states that a feature service can be made in tandem with a map service of vector data. then, I presume there is a method to show the map service, and query the feature service. I would like to do this with categorized raster data. Is this possible? I notice the Contents ToC pane in the web map does not offer configuration options for symbology or popups. thanks. ...

Hi, I am following the directions in the excellent readme.html file that downloads with the Story Telling - Side Panel web app template. I have made a number of successful edits by following the directions in the readme.html and have been able to see the results using a local web server. I have run into a problem in the section titled 'Use HTML to create sidebar content'. Step 1 reads: Before creating the HTML content for the sidebar, you will need to tell the application that you want to create custom content rather than using the map's description. In this section you will create a list of hyperlinks to other sites. Open index.html in a text editor and set the sidebarContent value to custom. sidebarContent = "custom"; Problem: I have not been able to find this text in index.html. I made several stabs at working around setting this variable with no luck. I searched the entire Main folder for the string 'sidebarContent' and found it referenced in doc, but not in code. My intent is to put custom HTML in the sidebar. Am I missing something? thanks and happy 4th ... View more

I am using the Edit web application with a simple web map/feature service with point features. all is going well and I have figured out how to add points, select a point, and update attributes. When adding a new point I can place the point, then adjust its location. but when I select the point, I am unable to move its location. I want to do this in cases where I return to make edits later. should I be able to adjust the position of a point feature? if so, what click stream is used to accomplish this? thanks. ... View more

Hi, I guess this is an enhancement request. I took a bike ride and captured track and waypoints with Garmin PND. I used Garmin Map Source to edit GPS data and create GPX file. The map source edits were mainly to thin the track points. I loaded the GPX data into AGOL and did no editing. GPX data has track, trackpoints, and waypoints. I shared the GPX data by loading into a web map, then using the GPX web application: source GPX data: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/36538888/third.gpx Web map: http://bit.ly/MvDpEI web application: http://www.arcgis.com/apps/OnePane/gpx/index.html?appid=8b05297f9f7a485c893b47994fff8e77&webmap=fda8c0090dd44ae1aabeea9adcb1dd05 Obviously, the data could be massaged into a more pleasing form for display. However, as is, in a more or less unedited state a couple things pop out that may be considered as enhancement requests for the web app: 1) When I click on the track a blue box appears in the elevation profile. the reverse does not work. I would like it to work in reverse, so that if i click on the elevation profile, a blue box would appear on the track on the map. 2) a line of text is printed above the elevation profile: "No time info in GPX data." When i click on the map the track popup shows only elevation, not time, so I guess this is a true fact. Leaving aside how this came to be (maybe a quirk in mapsource? maybe an issue reading garmin gpx data?) i have to ask why this message apprears. It seems a bit defensive, as if the software were apologizing for not being able to do something it could do if only it had time info. What that may be i do not know, since this is my sole source of GPX data. what i do know is that this handy web app comes with a message with little informational value to me, and makes the web app seem lacking somehow. The way points are all timestamped, BTW, so somewhere along the line the time info was lost--the hardware was producing it in real time as well. Other than that it all worked pretty sweet, and if I took the time to tweak the display, the map would look a lot better. I learned the trackpoint layer is necessary to produce the elevation profile. and one sidebar comment for the GPX mavens out there. On this ride, just for grins, I also tracked it by starting the MotionX GPX app on my iphone. I have to say the Garmin (an old 60sc? I dont think they sell them anymore) was the better choice on the ride because it had a handle bar clip which made waypoint capture easier (and safer!) while riding in a group. the Garmin also runs on AA batteries which were 1/4 used up in a 3 hour ride, while the iPhone was stone dead out of juice after 2 hours of continuous GPS tracking. thank you for your attention. ...

HI, I have some data I want to enable for simple attribute edits. the catch is that the data is produced inside an organization, but i dont want to include the account doing the editing in the organization. I set up a test. I tried to limit access to the data by creating a group, sharing the feature service, the web map, and the web application in the group. I invited a non-organizational account to the group. thus, i am attempting to use the group permissions to limit access to the data, regardless of the organization. from the non organizational account, i accepted the group invitation, then accessed the data. The feature service, the web map, and the web application were all displayed in the group. I double-clicked the web app, then attempted to view application. the web app starts to load, then I am thrown to the login screen. I tried to access the group data from an organizational account and was able to do so. Should I be able to access data in an organization from an account not in the organization through group permissions? thanks. ... View more
