Drawing Widget Text box

Hi everyone,

I'll keep the idea short; It would be great if there was a text box option on the drawing widget.

In our use case we generally will print the map then use Bluebeam to add text boxes to the drawn features, or just not use the drawing tool at all and draw everything in Bluebeam. It would be great if ExB could be used as a one-stop-shop for a use case that involves text on a map.

I will agree with this, and add in snapping. I don't know why the Experience Builder version of the drawing widget was released with less functionality than the Webapp version of the widget.

We just launched our first ExB app. One of the first requests from our users was "adding text" with the Draw widget. This is a great idea.
