Arcade supporting the font html tag

JaysonLindahl

I'm using the font html tag and the color attribute to return colored labels.  I've read online that arcade supports this html tag.  Here is my script:

var pct = $feature.PCT_NO;

var label = "Precinct " + $feature.PCT_NO;

var color = when(

  pct == 1, "#FF0000",

  pct == 2, "blue",

  pct == 3, "green",

  pct == 4, "orange",

  "black"

);

return "<font color='" + color + "'>" + label + "</font>";

 

What is returned on the map is not colored text, but the actual html text in black.

Unfortunately, unlike ArcGIS Pro, you can't use formatting tags in a label in a web map. The way around that limitation would be to use a different label classes for each color.

For example, these labels were created using two label classes

The Deep label class uses the expression 

if ($feature.Depth_ft > 30) return $feature.Depth_ft

 

while the Shallow label classes uses this expression

if ($feature.Depth_ft <= 30) return $feature.Depth_ft
