List of Arguments
Folks,
Probably a 'how long's a piece of string' type question - but was wondering if there will be a definitive list of arguments/methods that can be used in workflow. I'm not a user of Visual Studio as I assume you get the listings of arguments through intellisense etc when you program for a simple thing like the "Capture Geometry" activity
our supplier has written a very simple workflow for us here and do you think I'd know where to get the value for the Geometry Type entry field for the Capture Geometry activity. It being "Geocortex.Workflow.Activities.GeometryCaptureType.MapPoint"
should I be looking at loading up VS and the quickstart stuff and learning some basic stuff here? or are there plans for extending the doco on workflows - which by the way is a good start..
regards

Hi Gareth,
You shouldn't need to do any additional programming to use the CaptureGeometry activity. Once you specify the type (in this case it's a map point) and specify a variable to store the result, then when you run the workflow in the viewer and it gets to the CaptureGeometry activity, you simply select the point on the map that you want to use in the rest of the workflow. The geometry of this point is stored in the Result variable, which can be used in subsequent activities.
There is a list of Viewer commands in the Administrator and Developer Guide for the Silverlight Viewer. These can be accessed using the Run External Command activity in a workflow, but you don't need to use Visual Studio for anything unless you want to create your own workflow activities. All of the supplied activities tell you what type of variable to specify if you hover over the text box.
Have you seen the Draft Workflow Designer Guide on the Essentials 3.6 Download page?

Victoria,
Thanks for the reply..
It was more a case of asking where to get the list of arguments from. I've read the workflow Designer guide but it does not list the arguments, but you're right I missed the hover option for the input!
thanks for pointing that out
cheers
