Search widget when zoom to feature, hides everything

SanchezNuñez — Tue, 17 Feb 2026 20:15:14 GMT

Good afternoon,

With the search widget when finding a point, it zooms to it but hides all layers.

After unchecking "Enable filtering for layer source search" it does not hide feature but also it does not show the point selecged with another color.

Thanks

i've talked to support on this in the past. It doesn't hide all but it does some. You have to clear the search bar. I don't think they are going to do anything about it.

Hello @SanchezNuñez

Ensure you use 'Interact with a map widget' and have 'Customise search sources' toggled off.

If this is off, then the Enable filtering for layer sources can be off or on, and the point will be highlighted.

Hi @SanchezNuñez @Laura ,

In the latest Feb 2026 AGOL release, the “Data filtering changes” trigger now supports selecting data records. When using this message action, if “Enable filtering for layer source search” is activated, all search results can be selected at once.

If you do not want to filter the results, you can create a data view and use that as the search source instead. Then add the message action and point it to the original layer as the action data.

Please let me know if you have other questions.

Regards,

Shengdi
