Dojo widget for displaying connection status - dojo

in my dojo web app, I would like to display the connection status through a red / green light, possibly circular like a traffic light.
Is there anybody who knows an existing widget for the purpose?

AFAIK, there is no such widget existing yet. You can create your own widget. It's not a hard task to do that. Just use two different images to represent the state.

Image Panel that Displays Images Based on Spatial Extent in ArcGIS WebAppBuilder

Does anyone know of a way of possibly making a side panel in a webapp for ArcGIS Online that would allow images to be displayed that are either attached to point location data, or have a URL in the table. I would like to images to appear based on the current extent of the map and disappear when no longer in view on the map.
I'm not aware of any widgets that would do this out-of-the-box, but I think it would be a great case to create a custom widget for use with Web AppBuilder Developer Edition.
As you start working with Web AppBuilder more, some other useful resources include the GIS StackExchange, and the Web AppBuilder Custom Widgets GeoNet Group.

Implementing different styles within a Silverlight 5 application

I have a Silverlight 5 application, it is an image viewing system photographers use to show their images to their customers. My photographers want to be able to change the styling of the application. At a minimum they want both a light and dark option, in the end, they want a lot more customization then that.
I have used styles within the application (yes, there is a lot of clean up that needs to be done) but once I have one xaml file with all the colors, how do I set it up so that the customer can pick between to different looks, the light and the dark?
Does anyone know of any examples out there on how to do this?
Chris, you hit the nail on the head with that link! I didn't know there was such a thing as DynamicResource, which lead me to what I am seeking:

How to set my canvas drawings visible to anther user who opens same page where actions performed using paper.js script

I am working with paper.js in asp.net mvc4 application ,which helps in drawing on canvas region of HTML. I need your support for my requirement:
When I draw on my canvas I want to make visible these drawings on other canvas who opened same page over internet.
Paper.js provides a global variable called project.activeLayer to access items on view. I saved cavnas data in JSON format from active Layer , then I send this data through server communication. How can I rebuild the view in the canvas with same data. ?
(or)
Is there any way to do this without transmission of data.?
Thanks,
surbob.
This is not going to be simple. What you're talking about is basically the same as a chat room with caht cleints in the browser. You need to send the canvas data to the server, and then have the server update any other clients connected to it.
Probably the best place to start would be a chat-room sample and modify the code to handle the canvas data. The SignalR real-time communications library would probablyhelp to make tings a lot simpler, and it has good samples to get you going.

What is the best way to display and interact with a skill tree

I am trying to create an interface that is similar to the interface on this website for the skill tree: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree. What is the best way to go about doing this and have the same or similar user interaction. ie. you click on a node and it activate or deactivates it. The movement of the tree and zooming on it would be nice as well. Would like to try to stay away from webView as I am thinking about features I want to add. Thanks in advance just want to see what a good way to do this is.
you can use webView and have almost a copy-paste of the presented webpage html source and load it.
However with native components you can have better performance, but it will "not a copy"

There are more on that side. Consider a combination of they,

Rally AppSDK: Is there a way to facilitate "Inter-Panel" communication between Apps in the new layout schema

So I'm just getting used to and getting my arms around the new "panel-based" App scheme released with the 5/5/2012 version of Rally. At first it was a bit frustrating to lose the window real estate when I've been accustomed to full-page iFrames.
I am curious however - from a desire to optimize the way I use real estate onscreen for an App page - I would like to setup and utilize a multi-panel App whose components can communicate. For instance, I'd like to have one App panel display some control widgets and perhaps an AppSDK table, and a second App panel display a chart or grid that responds to events/controls in the first panel.
I've been scanning the AppSDK docs for hints as to how this might be accomplished, but I'm coming up short. Is there a way to wire up event listeners in one App panel that respond to widget controls in another?
We have not decided the best way to have the Apps communicate yet. That is something we are still spiking out internally to find the best way to do it.
Each custom App is in an IFrame so figuring out how to make them communicate can be a bit tricky. Once we figure out a good way to do it we will be sure to let you know.
Has this topic, "app Communication", been addressed yet? I would to have one Custom Grid show User Stories. When a user story is selected another grid show the related tasks.
