Clearing workflow, generated highlighted features with the "Close Pane" button (X)

I have a three workflows that query and select features. Each selects a different feature shape. One is for streets (polyline), one for subdivisions (polygons), and one for addresses (points).  If the features are either polylines or polygons, the features stay highlighted with no way of clearing them when the user closes the results pane via the "X".  If the features are point features, they clear fine when the user closes the results pane via the "X".    One difference is that the point feature are identified with pushpins.  Is there some way of capturing the close or some control that is fired, so that the highlighted poyline or polygon features can be cleared when the results panel is closed? 

 

I'm using GVH 2.5.1 and Essentials 4.4.1

 

Thanks,

  Hi Frank,

   

  I don't think it's possible to capture the user hitting the X button and closing the workflow.  Hitting that button terminates the workflow immediately.  What you can do is set the workflow region to DefaultNoCloseButton or ModalWindowNoCloseButton, and then using forms and flow decisions to capture the activity of a cancel button (and from there you can clear your selected features).

   

  Hope that helps!

  Hi Danny,

   

  Thanks.  I've tried the using the DefaultNoCloseButton or ModalWindowNoCloseButton, but they only effect the workflow. In this case. the workflow itself has completed, however when the Results pane with the selected features is closed using the "X", the features that were highlighted by the workflow activity remain highlighted even thought the Results pane has been closed.  So, I'm still searching...

   

  Thanks again,

   

  Frank
