Airport Signs - Arcade - Black Fillers

Question

I am creating Airport Sign labels, following this Esri article.

I am struggling to make sure both front and back signs are even in widths:

The article (linked) above includes global variables that can be set to change sign appearance, but I'm struggling to find where in the arcade code this should be placed:

* var autoAdjustWidths = true
* var labelAlignment = left
* var blackBackgroundFiller = true

Being global variables, I tried placing them near the top (with color) but it's not working. Any help is appreciated!

Hi Kate,

Those variables should already be present at the very top of the LXP, you just need to set the desired values.  Here's what I see in the 3.3 version of the expressions:

One thing to note though, we are tracking an issue with the expression that seems to be affecting how the autoAdjustWidths variable is working.  Not sure yet when this will be addressed, but will report back here when we know more.
