Measure Tool

It seems the Measure Tool in AGOL Exp Builder is not working well. We are submitting a ticket, but I am wondering is anyone has a stand alone measure tool web app?

I guess we cannot add stand alone apps to Exp Builder anymore?

Measure tool in Map widget or Measurement widget?

@EggandNog

Could you explain further what is not working well in regards to the tool? Do you see a difference in the measuring tool within the map widget or measurement widget?

Are you comparing data in your attribute table to what is being shown on the measurement tool?

There are two different measurements, one looks at the geodesic length and the other is planar measurements. See the documentation below for more information, it is logged under ArcGIS Pro but the theory is the same:
