I've seen the following behavior with my maps: if the Map is zoomed way in, to a scale larger than the maxscale of the tiled basemap layer, the Map.Progress event never reaches 100, and so my progress bar stays around even though that last layer will never come. anything to be done? ... View more

Say I cloned a single-part lake polygon. Then I used the Editor Reshape command to cut a piece off. That incidentally caused a second part to be created where the island was, as seen here. Now I want to get rid of that bogus island. I've tried drawing a circle around it with the Cut command, tried the Reshape command again, no joy. Help a dummy out? [ATTACH=CONFIG]32045[/ATTACH] ...

I used TOAD to change a feature class column from non-nullable to nullable. And I added a trigger to populate a default value. ArcCatalog still shows the column as non-nullable. So does the ArcGIS Server Services Directory for a feature service published on this layer. And they seem unaware of the trigger -  So I still can't insert features with a null value for this column. Secret sauce, anyone? ... View more

I've got a pond polygon with an island in it, from ArcSDE,  that causes this method to blow up with an index out of bounds when it processes the interior ring. before I pull too much hair I thought I'd check to see what I should expect of this method. thanks, MC ... View more

I'm getting the following exception when I call FeatureLayer.SaveEdits(). My layer has DisableClientCaching set. This only happens on some layers. [INDENT] System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary.  at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.get_Item(TKey key)  at ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Tasks.ServiceException.CreateFromJSON(String json)  at ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Tasks.TaskBase.CheckForServiceError(RequestEventArgs e)  at ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Tasks.TaskBase.request_Completed(Object sender, RequestEventArgs e)  at ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.WebRequest.OnComplete(RequestEventArgs args)  at ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.WebRequest.uploadStringCompleted(Object sender, UploadStringCompletedEventArgs e)  at System.Net.WebClient.OnUploadStringCompleted(UploadStringCompletedEventArgs e)  at System.Net.WebClient.UploadStringOperationCompleted(Object arg) [/INDENT] None of my try/catch will catch this exception - not around the SaveEdits() call, nor in the EndSaveEdits or SaveEditsFailed event handlers. I suppose that means the exception happens in some private portion of the API after SaveEdits() returns but before those events are raised. I can see in Fiddler that the applyEdits request is sent, but I'm not clear if a response is received (Fiddler noob, I can't seem to find responses to anything) Thanks, MC ... View more

I've got an app build mostly for the 2.2 API and targeting Silverlight 4 (or 5, it doesn't seem to affect my problem below) that uses the Editor class. I have an event handler hanging off the Editor EditCompleted event. I examine the EditEventArgs.Action property and branch on whether it is a 'save' or an 'edit' (Action != Save). If I change my project from referencing the 2.2 libraries to the 3.1 libraries (specifically Client, Client.Bing, and Client.Toolkit), and make no other changes, I get the following problem: I am finding that my Editor.EditCompleted event handler never gets called unless the Action is Save. Also, after clicking my Save button, bound to the Editor.Save property, my button stays enabled, which means there is something haywire with that property too. I realize this might be vague, I just want to ask first if it rings any kind of bell before I dig further... Any bells? ... View more
