Oriented Imagery Widget in Experince Builder: Load initial oblique image at startup

GISAdminChemnitz — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 13:20:03 GMT

The oblique image functionalities (especially in the widget "Oriented Imagery") of the new ArcGIS Online Experience Builder are not complete compared to the old Web AppBuilder.

When you open a new Instance of an Experience Builder App (with the side-by-side view of an orthophoto and an oblique image) no initial oblique image is shown. You first have to click on the orthophoto to load an oblique image.

The Oriented Imagery widget of the Experience Builder should be completed with the function of showing an initial oblique image.

Serving as a city administration of a big city with more than 3000 clients, the city's oblique aerial imagery app has had an average of over 65 daily hits this year (with ~23,800 elements accessed) and is required due to various legal regulations in surveying, urban planning, and disaster relief. It is irritaing that a new product has fewer user-friendly functions than the old product.
