From Bryan Baker, a product engineer working on the .NET SDK:
I wrote an earlier post that showed how to extend the QueryAttributes task so that all features are immediately highlighted. Several users have asked about also zooming to the selected features. I'll show that here,Tiffany Diamond Earrings, though keep in mind that the user can also zoom to the selected features by right-clicking on the node for the layer (Cities in the graphic at the top of the earlier post) and choosing to zoom to selected features.
It turns out that it's a little more difficult to zoom to the features than I originally thought, because the FullExtent property of the graphics layer is null for queries like this. Instead,Tiffany's Sydney, we have to construct our own envelope around all the features by looping through them. This isn't that difficult, though of course it does require more processing.
I’ve included code below that does the zooming. This code should be added to near the bottom of the existing code in the earlier post. If for some reason you didn’t want to highlight all the features, you could omit or comment out the line in the loop that sets the selectedCol to true.
The code below first creates an envelope to use,Tiffany Key Necklace, then in the existing loop that selects each feature, it widens the envelope to surround each feature. Once it has the envelope, it gets a reference to the Map control so it can set the Map’s extent. This takes some work,Tiffany Outlet AmpliVox Portable Sound Systems P, since the task itself has no reference to the Map. We have to get the ID of the Map and then search the page’s control tree. Since the Map control could be nested within another control, such as in a FloatingPanel, we search for it recursively using a custom function (found at the bottom of this listing).
One more thing before we zoom the map: the task could be querying a point layer, and if only one point is found,X-art Tiffany, the “envelope” around all features is a point. We can’t zoom to a point, so instead we set the envelope to a percentage of the full extent of the Map (five percent—this value is hard-coded here, and you can change it depending on tightly you want to zoom in this one-point case).
Finally,Pandora Stockists, we’ve got an envelope that will work, and we set the Map to this extent, refresh the Map, and copy its CallbackResults to the task’s CallbackResults. This last step is necessary because a callback only works with one control (the task in this case), and we need to tell another control (the Map) to update its contents.

Dim NewWidth As Double = mapCtrl.GetFullExtent().Width _
* (zoomToPointPercentage / 100)
Dim NewHeight As Double = mapCtrl.GetFullExtent().Height _
* (zoomToPointPercentage / 100)
layerEnv.XMin -= NewWidth / 2
layerEnv.XMax += NewWidth / 2
layerEnv.YMin -= NewHeight / 2
layerEnv.YMax += NewHeight / 2
End If
' Now we can zoom the map to the extent of the features
mapCtrl.Extent = layerEnv
mapCtrl.Refresh()
' We have to tell the client to refresh, using CallbackResults
Me.CallbackResults.CopyFrom(mapCtrl.CallbackResult s)
End If
End If
Below is the function called in the above code. This searches the page and its child controls for the control with the given ID. Put this after the end of the Execute method (End Sub), but inside the Class (before the End Class statement).
' Finds the control in the Page's control tree
Public Function FindControlRecursive(ByVal root As _
Control,Pandora Günstig, ByVal id As String) As Control
If root.ID = id Then
Return root
End If
Dim c As Control
For Each c In root.Controls
Dim t As Control = FindControlRecursive(c, id)
If Not t Is Nothing Then
Return t
End If
Next
Return Nothing
End Function
If you add the code above to the custom task as outlined in the earlier blog post, it should automatically zoom to the extent of all features found by the task.
