Limit user to only select 1 feature on map in Dashboard (not cluster of nearby points)

apgis16 — Wed, 19 Mar 2025 19:54:24 GMT

I am creating a dashboard that has a simple map of 1 point layer across a state. I have a chart where I don't render it until the user selects a point on the map by using the "Render only when filtered" checkbox. However, is there a way to only have it render when 1 point is selected? I know the map likes to grab nearby points if you aren't zoomed in enough on a location.

I do not think that is possible. Depending on what kind of chart you have, and how it is configured, it might be possible to limit it to show data from only one of the selected points.

It's a bar chart. What would be the configuration needed for it to show data from only one of the selected points?

If it is a serial chart with categories from Features you can limit the Maximum categories to 1.

Ah, I see. Thank you Andreas. This is how I have the chart set up now. (see attached)

Perhaps you could limit it to show data from only one of the selected point if you would use a Data Expression as your input layer in the serial chart. Someone more fluent in Arcade might be able to help you with that.
