Allow shift-select of multiple records in Table widget

JRhodes — Thu, 11 Jan 2024 17:55:52 GMT

We need to be able to select a large number of records in the Table widget (for example, after applying a filter in the Table widget, we want to select all the features that meet the filter). Currently, holding down Shift while clicking records does the same thing as holding down CTRL, meaning each record must be clicked individually, which isn't practical for hundreds of records.

We would like to be able to select a record, scroll down, hold Shift, and click another record, selecting all records between the clicked rows, just like ArcGIS Pro, Excel, and the Attribute Table widget in WAB.

I concur with Joe's suggestion on shift-select for multiple records in the table widget. Currently, If I want to highlight filtered features in the table on the map (say, all parcels in a subdivision) I have to click each indivdual record while holding the shift or crtl key. Pretty tiresome if there are 60 parcels in said subdivision.

In WAB, one could click the first record, then hold shift and click the last record to select all features (which is how the shift key usually works).

For any other unfortunate souls that come here looking for an answer like I did, this is not the solution but a work around:

You can put in a select widget, set up a select by attribute where object ID is not 0.

This will then select all rows (when it's done thinking, if it doesn't crash).

Seconding this request. This needs to be a working functionality! Ctrl click is often multi-select, whereas shift click should be selecting those two rows and everything in between. Now that batch editing is available in Experience Builder, can we please have more eyes on this enhancement?

I also like this enhancement if ESRI could do it.

Yes, please. And/Or a Select All option in the Table Widget header or Data Actions menu.
