Client Actions SpatialIdentify

Provides a means of displaying attribute information relating to all of the entities that a user selects when clicking on the map.

Compared to the standard Identify action the Spatial Identify doesn't use the active entity as the source for the entities to display information about, but instead searches through every entity to find any that intersect the shape drawn by the user. Which means of course that it can take longer to display its information than the regular Identify action.

The Spatial Identify action always displays its information in a popup window.
