Can't Move Fields in Map Viewer

AnthonyDunkelberger — Mon, 30 Mar 2026 18:53:11 GMT

On map view classic I was able to move these fields into alphabetical order, not the order in which they were created. In the new map viewer it seems these fields reset to the order in which they were created. I can't seem to find a way to move them around and put back into alphabetical order for when I am making a data point entry.

Note: This is only when I entering new data. I can click on data that has been entered and the pop-up window shows everything in the order I want it but not when I enter the data.

Hi @AnthonyDunkelberger,

To control the field order in the Editor pane, you need to create a Form. If you haven't done that, it displays a list of all the editable fields in default order.

To get started:

Select the editable layer,
click Configure Editing on the toolbar on the right and
select Forms.

In the Form builder you can copy the pop-up with 1 click, or drag and drop fields in the order you want them to appear.
