Changing symbology while editing in WebMap App

Kate_Gormley_abdn — Wed, 16 Dec 2020 14:18:02 GMT

Hi,

I am currently developing a WebMap app that will be used during an online stakeholder workshop. I need the app to have an editable feature layer so that the user can draw a polygon, but where they can also select different colours for each time they draw a polygon. Is this possible?

When i've played around with things, it seems that colour selection can only be applied to an attribute in the web map.

Thanks

It might be possibly by having subtypes with a domain for each colour as an attribute, the user would then select that subtype from the edit window, and the symbology would be set by the colour attribute.

Hi Kate,

Have you considered using the drawing widget for this task?

Thanks - I tried that, but it doesn't appear you can save attributes with the Draw widget like you can with Edit. I need to be able to collect the attributes associated with the points/lines/polygons. Is this possible?

Hi Kate,

Perhaps you can add in a customer Widgets- either a Custom Draw widget Enhanced Draw Widget - GeoNet, The Esri Community, or a custom edit widget?
