Bug when publishing tiled map service with labels

DavidButz — Wed, 14 Nov 2012 16:57:50 GMT

I have a simple polygon layer that I have in ArcMap. I labeled it using a simple VBScript expression to make a label such as "ID: [myIDField] so it will show 'ID: 234' for example.

After I publish this to ArcGIS Online as a tiled map service, the labels appear but only show the part of the label in quotes and NOT the part of the label pulled from the attribute table. So I only see "ID:" after publishing.

Why is this?

I am not seeing this behavior. You do see the labels appear in ArcMap, right? Did you use a special text symbol or set scale range?

Hi Mike,

Yes, the labels appear correct in ArcMap. My boss was on the phone with ESRI support yesterday while I was researching this issue in the forums. He was given an incident/bug number of 1096691

There was no special text symbol and I am pretty sure there was no scale range settings either.

Thanks,
David
