Indicator Font Sizes Change Unexpectedly

MelissaSullivan — Tue, 03 Jun 2025 17:39:50 GMT

I created a dashboard with 5 indicators which I am embedding into Experience Builder window. The data on the dashboard refreshes automatically every 6 seconds. I ended up creating separate rich text elements for the categories so that I could choose a font size instead of the "medium" and "large" options available for the indicator since the words kept changing sizes and getting cut off:

But I'm still having the same issue with the indicator's numbers changing sizes with no apparent cause. The second screenshot is how I want it to look.

Why do the font sizes change like this? The window in my Experience Builder app is a set width/height. Is there a way to set a font size for the indicator in Advanced Formatting?

I've seen this behaviour too. It's really annoying. I never figured out a way around it. I guess it's something to do with the order that items are rendered and it's calculating the size of the text before it's properly set the size of the container it's in.

I'd reach out to your local Esri Support team and log it as a bug.
