WAB Print Widget - Can I force it to not include ScaleBar?

Arne_Gelfert

Granted, we're always taught not to be print maps without scale bars, north arrow... I know, I know. But I have an app in WAB that does not include a scale bar. It's more of a schematic than a true map. So when I print it, the Print widget will include a scale bar in the PDF. Any way to suppress that? Where would I tweak that in the widget?

Ame,

print widget/service does not give you any control on scale bar visibility.

If you don't want to see scale bar in the output layout pdf, you need to use a layout template that does not have scale bar.

as you know to use your own layout template, you can't use ArcGIS Online print service or the print service that comes installed with ArcGIS Enterprise/Server, you need to publish your own.

hope this help

Thanks, Tanu. Got it working. I tracked down the Print templates directory on my AGS machine that is host to the printing service and saw those MXDs in there. That's where the MXD comment comes from. I thought I could just manipulate those files to make them suit my needs. But then I read a "no no - don't do that" somewhere and didn't

Instead I created a couple of clones of those templates, removed the scalebar from them, and saved to an empty directory. From there, I followed steps 1 - 19 here. While that happened to be for ArcMap, I realize I could've used Pro. As with everything else, ArcMap is just soooo much more intuitive and soooo much easier. I force myself to use Pro when I can and when I'm working in an application (10% of my day) but the emphasis is on "force". I just switched to 2.5 and like it as little as the last release.

first of all, apologizes as I realized later that I got your name misspelled

Back to working with MXD's

on this, if you are using one of the latest server version (10.6.1 or above -- higher the better ) then I'd suggest you to author layer in ArcGIS Pro and publish a print service from Pro.

Thanks Tanu... I was suspecting as much and am already fiddling with the Layouts on my Print Service machine. Back to working with MXD's - ha! Thanks for chiming in.

Well, I do want the legend! Otherwise, that would suffice. Is this more of a function of the print template rather than configurable from the widget side?

Arne,

Why not select the map only print template then?
