Extent/Pan Control with next and previous extent buttons
|
A pan control similar to the Google map's control with the addition of two buttons to step backwards and forwards through your navigation history. I developed this while working on a project called FIRST™ http://first.camber.com/. I'm working on a better skin. Let me know if you have any other feature requests or suggestions.
View source is enabled on the demo but it looks like you have to right click on the toggle button bar in the top, right corner because the ESRI controls provide their own context menus.

Can you provide explicit instructions on how to install to a newbie?

I'd be happy to. After you download the code, you'll need to either put the bin/ESRI.swc in your libs folder of your project or put the source files in your src folder. Then to use the control you'll need to add it your application. You'll have to add the namespace xmlns:controls="org.tylerchesley.esri.ags.controls.*". Then you can add the control

Tyler, I love your new navigation control with the added forward/backward buttons. Can you show me how to replace the stock ESRI Sample FlexViewer navigation control with your improved version? This is what I have done so far: 1. Unzipped AS16261.zip Got the following 3 folders under ESRI bin libs src 2. Copied ESRI/bin to FlexViewer/libs/bin 3. Properties | Flex Build Path | Library path | Added SWC file ESRI.swc from libs/bin 4. Copied ESRI/src/assets to FlexViewer/src/assets 5. Copied ESRI/src/org to FlexViewer/src/org 6. Added xmlns:controls="org.tylerchesley.esri.ags.controls.*" to FlexViewer/src/index.html

Tyler, Here is the rest of my post: 7. Now my question is how do I add this control to replace the default navigation control? 8. Finally, how do I make this control point to my map? Using the Sample FlexViewer as an example, how would the relevant code look like? Please remember, I am an absolute beginner! Thanks, Tapas

Hi Tapas, All you really need to do is add the ESRI.swc to your libs folder. You don't need to copy the assets or the source code folders. There isn't going to be an easy way to add this to the Flex Viewer application right now. I will work up an example for you tonight and post it for you.

Some improvement ideas... posted by j.joalland on Sep 15, 2009 8:04 AM
Hi, I just start to use Flex... and your Control is just great ! and thanks for clear explanation :-) Just 2 question (for Flex Viewer Sample use): - coult id be possible to change the color of the Extent/Pan Control ? (black by default from what i see) - i replace the "Navigation" part in my style.css, but now the Zoom tool does not use transparency... could it be possible to define transparency ? (as Banner, Widgets, etc.) Thanks anyway for this control Jeremie
