Fieldmaps offline area strange rectangle

KayWeltz — Thu, 11 Jul 2024 05:10:09 GMT

Hello.

I am using ArcGIS online and ArcGIS Pro on my desktop.

I have added some layers (contours and waypoints) to my map on ArcGIS Pro and shared this map as a weblayer to my oneline ArcGIS. I used Fieldmaps to create offline areas for taking into the field. I do this all through ArcGIS online.

It has worked fine for the Waypoints. I went back and added the "contours" layer, made sure everything was enabled (offline areas, sync, etc) and shared with my organization), yet when I go to download an offline area in my Fieldmaps App on my phone, a strange long rectangle shape appreas. It doesnt matter how big I scale it (room, rooms, buildings etc) the strange rectangle shape just gets longer...not wider!

Any one had this problem before?

I cant seem to get the offline are big enough (wide enough) to download a suitable area?

It was working fine before but now that Ive added another layer (contours) its no longer working...

any ideas?

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers,

Kay

Exactly the same issue here. I don't understand why this would happen, I inspected the Web Map specifications in the AGO Assistant, I inspected the Field Maps Configurations in the interface and as a json, I tried adding an offline area in AGO to see if this resets the shape. I'm clueless.

I'm on iOS 18.6.2, iPhone 10(r), Field Maps 25.1.0 (build 1141)
