Floor Filter widget - Allow selection of "None" Critical

Modify the floor filter widget to include a "None" option, allowing the widget to return to a "no building/floor selected" state.

The recent update to the floor filter, making it data-centric rather than only map-centric, allows other widgets (edit/filter/select) to be limited to the floor currently selected. This is an excellent improvement; HOWEVER, it necessitates the need for an option to deselect a floor in the floor filter so that filtering can be done over the entire data set. Ideally, the web map was published/saved without a building/floor being selected in the Map Viewer's floor filter. If it was done this way, web apps will open with no building selected, allowing the other widgets to see the whole dataset and function as expected. Once a selection is made, however, the additional widgets will be limited to only the selection set dictated by the floor filter widget. Currently the only way to get back to "none" is to refresh the webpage. If, however, the webmap has been published/saved with a building/floor selected, that selection will persist in web applications when they are first opened, and since there is no way to select "none," there is no way to use the filter/select widgets over the entire dataset. This seems like an incredible oversight, as if the widget development teams aren't talking to each other. 😲

The option to select "none" from the floor filter exists in ArcGIS Pro but is not included in either Map Viewer or Experience Builder. As of Enterprise 11.5, following the update of the floor filter widget, it desperately needs to be. As it is, this one widget is ruining the usefulness of all instances of multiple other widgets.

*edit to clarify*

I understand that I can un-check "Filter data by selected floor" in the widget configuration. However, this makes manually selecting and pulling up statistics for specific rooms (on multi-level buildings) impossible, since rooms on floors above and below will be captured in the selection despite not being visible on the map. Offering "None" in the floor filter will allow both the filtered manual selection to function properly as well as allowing more broad data filtering/selection to be done.

Users here at my organization are definitely wanting a "None" option in Map Viewer and Experience Builder as well. Thank you for posting this, @JDenham !

@DougFenske I'm a bit surprised how little attention this suggestion has gotten. It makes me wonder how few organizations actually use ExB for indoors the way that we would like to. My main web applications are still on Web App Builder because these foundational functions are still not there in ExB. I'm anxiously waiting for ExB to be as good as WAB at some of these basics.

Are you on Enterprise or AGOL? If enterprise, which version are you on? We're still on 11.5, but curious if 12.1 has addressed any of our issues. I'm happy that it finally has batch attribute editing (one of our biggest holdups) but considering our users' need to query building data from their web apps, we probably need to wait until they include this 'None' option in the floor filter before moving over.
