New to Arcade, trying to remove some text from a label so it fits better. For example the labels are:
Iowa County
Wood County
Monroe County
How do I write an arcade expression to remove "County" from each label?
This would be my go to solution in the label expression:
Replace($feature.FieldName," County","")
For the reasons mentioned above, I would avoid the Split option.
Sorry, not on machine to do sample code. Why not just use the text replace function?
Replace('Monroe County', ' County', '') Grab the leading space to County -> _County then replace with empty value

Someone else might have a more elegant solution but this should work:
var theInput = 'Alpha Bravo County'; var inputArray = Split(theInput, " "); var theOutput = ''; for (var i in inputArray) { if (Upper(inputArray[i]) != 'COUNTY') { theOutput = theOutput + ' ' + inputArray[i]; } } return Trim(theOutput);
I'm using the Upper function just to be safe in case there's any mix of upper / lower / proper case field values (but everyone is always consistent with attribute entry, amirite?)

You could try using split:
Split($feature.labelfield, ' ')
I haven't used this one much, but if I read correctly, the first set of quotes with the space between will tell the Arcade renderer to use spaces as splits. You can also add a comma and then give it an integer value to specify the maximum number of splits.
Split($feature.labelfield, ' ', 1)
That might be helpful because it will for sure remove "County" from the return, but it might give you problems if a county has a two word name (ex. Otter Tail County" would just return "Otter.")

Another option might be something like this:
var txt = $feature.labelfield; return Left(txt, Count(txt)-7)
If all the names are the same (County, which is 6 letters, plus a space before it) this should remove the final 7 characters of each name. This expression came from a similar ask on the community
PS sorry for a bunch of edits, I had ideas right after I hit submit!
