Using widgets in Flex

You can easily use the built-in widgets in your own applications with the WidgetPopupManager. Currently there are three built-in widgets: "Find", "Pan & Zoom", and "Base Maps". The sample below illustrates how to use the DockWidgetContainer to add widgets for "Find", "Pan & Zoom", and "Base Maps". See the using a widget sample for details.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application
    xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
    xmlns:awx="http://www.arcwebservices.com/2007/awx"
    xmlns:widget="com.esri.aws.awx.widget.*"
    layout="absolute">

    <awx:Framework apiKey="[Your ArcWeb Explorer API Key]"/>
    <awx:Map/>
    <awx:DockWidgetContainer>
        <awx:BaseMapWidget/>
        <awx:FindWidget/>
        <awx:PanZoomWidget/>        
    </awx:DockWidgetContainer>
</mx:Application>

You can also use the lazy loaded version of these widgets. See the reference documentation on BaseMapWidgetLoader, FindWidgetLoader, and PanZoomWidgetLoader for more information.
