Time slider Playback Position

PWhitten — Mon, 13 May 2024 02:12:27 GMT

In web maps on ArcGIS Online there is an option within the "Time slider options" called "Playback position" -> "Play from position saved with the map".

Is there anyway to achieve a similar outcome with the Time Slider widget in ArcGIS Experience Builder? I have tried the option "Time settings" -> "Synchronize with time settings in the web map" - but this does not change the playback position from the start time.

I'm also interested in the answer to this. I have tried the same thing with no luck.

I tried to synchronize my ExB with Map viewer setting and I lose not only playback position but also other settings. So I changed it back to customize time setting in ExB. But I'm also looking for setting playback possition in ExB. Does anybody know any workaround.

This has been supported in the latest AGOL 2026 Feb release. Let me know if you encounter any other issues with it. Thanks.
