Identify returns too many results

Hi,

 

We are experiencing a problem where a point identify on a parcel layer returns too many results. Even if I click well within the parcel, neighbouring parcels are returned as well. I tried to set the pixelTolerance to 0, but that didn't make a difference.

If instead of clicking I drag a small rectangle within a parcel, I only get that single parcel.

  Hi Berend. W e noticed this ourselves quite recently. The issue is that we use the rectangle drawing type for one of our configured identify tools. The rationale behind that was that it's nice to be able to tap or drag to do an identify. However, when you tap, the esri.toolbars.Draw operation (used for creating identify geometry) actually emits a square with some default dimensions. You can see this when you tap on the map when using a markup tool. You should be able to switch the tool from rectangle to point, and that should solve the issue.

  Thank you for this post, this has been driving us crazy!  The problem for us is that we would like to keep the identify tool as a rectangle.  Does anyone know how to override the default dimensions coming from the esri.toolbars.Draw operation?

  Thank you!
