Expand Flash markers to display additional information on mouse rollover and mouse clicks. They can also contain text, video, audio, image, or Flash information.
This Quick-Start Plus Guide is designed to help developers who have already used the Quick-Start Guide to integrate additional functionality, such as routing and map information, into their mapping application using ArcWeb Explorer JavaScript API. These Quick-Start Plus samples are grouped into the following categories:
Before you use this Quick-Start Plus Guide, make sure you have viewed the instructions for embedding ArcWeb Explorer in your Web page.
The following samples are designed to help you quickly add enhanced functionality to your mapping application using ArcWeb Explorer JavaScript API.
For each sample, click the title to view an interactive map sample. Click the source to view the code for the sample.
NOTE: See Samples—terms and conditions for usage permissions.
| Title | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Markers | Add a marker to your map and set various properties. It also demonstrates how to add mouseClick, mouseOver and mouseOut events to your marker. |
|
| Adding Multiple Markers | Quickly add as many as a hundred markers at once to your map. You can also add click events, rollover effects, and attach user-defined data to the added markers. |
|
|
Expand Flash markers to display additional information on mouse rollover and mouse clicks. They can also contain text, video, audio, image, or Flash information. |
|
| Title | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Routing | Get driving directions between two locations on your map. You can choose to plot the shortest route or the fastest route on the map. You can also zoom into "maneuvers" or turns along the route. |
|
| Title | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Lines | Add a polyline to a map. It also shows you how to remove lines, and add mouseOver and mouseClick events and a style to the lines. |
|
| Polygons | Add a polygon to the map using mouse clicks. The properties of the resulting polygon can be set. In this case, it has a color gradient. |
|
| Mouse Handler | Use mouse events for: smooth pan, rubber band (draw a rectangle to zoom in), add a marker to the map, or no operation. |
|
|
Make a call to an SWF marker’s method. |
|
| Title | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Map Image Data Sources | View a Map Image Group Layer centered at a specified latitude, longitude and map scale. |
|
| setGroupLayerProperties | Update a layer group at run-time. The available properties depend on the layer group being modified. This sample also shows how to choose display layers. |
|
| getGroupLayerProperty | Extract information from a group layer at run-time. You can obtain information about what layers are visible and what layers are not visible. |
|
|
Create a thematic map. This sample creates a thematic map and sets many of its properties, such as class interval, legend, color scheme, and so on. |
|
|
|
Customize a thematic map and its legend by setting various parameters. |
|
|
|
Set the depth of your click-sensitive layers. This sample shows how to put your click layer under a polygon to capture mouse events exclusive to that polygon. Without layer depth control, a click on the polygon only allows you to pan just as it does elsewhere on the map. |
|
| Title | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|
| About Map | Extract information from the map about its center, scale, and extent. |
|
|
Create an overview map for your mapping application. In addition to panning to the required location based on the main map, the overview map also reflects the main map in terms of scale. |
|
|
|
View the latitude-longitude, and x,y coordinates at the location of a mouse click. Mouse callback functions are used to achieve this result. |
|
|
|
Learn how to embed your map in a FORM tag. |
|
|
|
Check if a marker lies within a polygon on the map. You can draw a polygon in the vicinity of a point and learn if the marker lies within the polygon. |
|
|
|
Add a simple Flash object to your map. |
|
|
|
Use “try-and-catch?to catch errors, for example an invalid latitude. |
|
|
|
Override default error handling using jsFaultHandler. |
