I've just noticed that my builds using the API 3.1 all have a subtle letter 'C' visible in the lower right-hand corner of the screen. It doesn't seem to have been there with API 2.4 and API 2.5 builds.

Can someone explain what it means please?

Sarah, 

    Attribution was introduced in version 3.1 of the API.

http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/flex-api/apiref/com/esri/ags/Map.html#attributionVisible

  The C is likely from on our your layers credits of copyright info.

You can just set the map.attributionVisible = false;

Hi,

I have myself some layers with no attributions but I still get the grey copyright box visible (but empty).
I don't want to disable the whole copyright thing. How can I hide the box when no attribution are setup for the layers ?

BR,

   The attribution code is built into the API and you do not have access to change it so the only thing you can do is check your active/visible layers and if they do not have a copyright (i.e. an empty string) then turn off the maps attribution.
