I'm trying to use this example: Editing Tables in Feature Service with Silverlight 4 with Silverlight 5. I get the dataform populated but the new feature isn't getting saved. In the debugger, I can see the 'hasEdits' flag is false after the new graphic is added.  Has anyone successfully edited a table using Silverlight 5? ... View more

Using the SmartEditor widget to create a polygon or line -- I need to store the polygon size (prefer in acres) and length of the line. Is there a way to get those values when the feature is saved? ... View more

We are updating from Windows Mobile 10 to Runtime SDK for Mobile 3.1. In our Mobile 10 application, the user can search for a feature by selecting attributes from a combo box. The results display in a listview. The user can select an item and click on a menu item to zoom to the selected feature on the map. In Mobile 10, the code behind the menu zoom click event sets the feature as selected on the map, then zooms the map to an envelope created using the feature geometry. The code to select the feature is: SelectionGraphicLayer lyr = _map.MapGraphicLayers.GetFirstLayerOfType(typeof(SelectionGraphicLayer)) as SelectionGraphicLayer; lyr.SelectedGeometries.Add(featureDataRow.Geometry); I'm having trouble setting a feature as selected using the RuntimeSDK v3.1. In v3.1, the SelectionGraphicLayer is a  MapGraphicLayer which takes Graphics (not geometries). Graphics is a read-only list. So I can't add to the SelectionGraphicLayer like I did in Mobile 10. public IList<MapGraphic> Graphics {get;} If you are selecting features in code, please provide an example of how to do it. ...

In ArcGIS Mobile 10, the SyncAgentCollection could be indexed by layer name. we have code to access the feature layer sync agents, like this: FeatureLayer ftrLayer = (FeatureLayer)lyr; FeatureLayerSyncAgent flsa = _mobileCacheSyncAgent.SyncAgents[ftrLayer] as FeatureLayerSyncAgent; I can't find anything similar in the RunTime SDK for Mobile 10.1 -- the FeatureSyncAgents is a generic collection and appears to be accessible only by index. Is there a way to access the FeatureSyncAgents using the layerName as we've done in Mobile10? Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong forum. I posted here because I didn't find a forum for the Runtime SDK for Mobile 10.1 on the forums list. Please let me know if it exists. Chris ... View more

I have an application written in VB Script that loads raster files to the map. The problem is the background displays as black or white strips. I want to re-set the display background to no color -- in code after the raster is loaded. I've seen an attribute 'transparencycolor', but I can't find anything on how to set this using VBScript. In ArcMap, I can set the Display Background value to match the raster and then select As 'No Color'. But this won't work for our customers. Is there a way to do something similar in code? Following is the subroutine that loads the layers. After this method is done, I want to check for raster-type layers and set the transparency. Any help is appreciated. Chris S.
