Menu widget - How to add windows

Marokapara — Thu, 03 Jun 2021 11:19:48 GMT

Hi there,

Is it possible to add windows into the menu widget?

I see it has auto-populated with pages, but I'd really like to get some of my windows in there.

Possibly other people have come across this or thought of a clever work around? I thought about adding in buttons or images to the widget controller, however the buttons and images opened up another window before going to the actual destination. I'd like to bypass this step.

Hi,

You cannot add windows into the menu widget. However, you can use the set link option to point to the window.

Please see the Set link doc here: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/experience-builder/build-apps/add-widgets.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_0F7788FDC39040CC8B969DB036C354AA

You can use a widget like button to set link to the window. Then if you click the button at runtime, the window opens.

See the effect of opening a window with a button:

Hope it helps,
