Display Field Not Honoured in New Collector (Aurora)

Question

Hi,

I've been struggling to get the display field (the one underneath the popup title when selecting a feature) to change on the new Collector (Aurora). I successfully updated the definition via REST and tested it on both Collector (Aurora) and Collector (Classic).

I can confirm that Collector (Classic) is showing the information correctly but not Collector (Aurora).

The display field is particularly important in our workflow due to the amount of information we can show on screen.

Regards,

Weng

ESRI has just updated BUG-000123907: Collector for ArcGIS (iOS) fails to display the Disp.. and indicated that the Display Field expression will no longer be used when displaying features on the subtitle.

That is rather unfortunate as it does restrict the amount of information that can be displayed. Lat/Longs or polygon area isn't the most useful piece of information that can be shown in our workflow.

I've contacted ESRI Support and they have logged this as a bug :

BUG-000123907: Collector for ArcGIS (iOS) fails to display the Disp..

Hopefully a fix is on the way in the next version .

We have the same problem.

The New Collector (Aurora) won't show the display field in the pop up information window on row two, below the "headline". It only shows coordinates. The Collector Classic shows the display field (as stated in the mxd and feature service).

Our collector consumes services from our own arcgis server which is v. 10.5.1.
