Formatting Fields in Attribute Widget

ReginaldoPaderon — Tue, 07 Jan 2014 03:53:33 GMT

I can not format the fields in the Attribute Widget. However, the same dataset, I can do formatting in the pop up widgets. In the Attribute widget, only the the DATE type field can be formatted ( with the pencil icon ).

I tried manually adding in the precision property in the field tag in the xml ( using pop up widget as reference ) to no avail.

I also tried changing the property of the field in the mxd and re-publishing the service but no effect.

Actually, not all records are affected. I tried editing the field and re-entering the value, but still no effect.

Dataset is in ArcSDE Enterprise Geodatabase ( Oracle 11g) and ArcGIS Server 10.2 in Windows 2008 Ent and ArcGIS Viewer for Flex - Application Builder 3.6

thanks.

Eggie,

Looking at the tag reference for the attribute table the field tag does not have a precision attribute like the popup does:

Hi Anthony,

Thank you for your reply. I did saw that Reference Tag for Attribute Widget. And you are right, precision tag is not there. But I thought, if you can format a Date field in the Attribute Widget, why can't you a numeric field. So it was like just trying , nothing to loose anyway.

But still, I believe that you should be able to format the all the field data types the same way for Pop-ups. Or perhaps it is simpler than I thought.

Thanks again, Anthony.

I have scale 2 for numeric fields in my ArcSDE database and ArcMap table display 2 decimal digit after colon (precision). But some of records in Flex 3.6 Attribute fields display more decimal digits, for example

6,150000095367432 vs 6,15,
6,599999904632568 vs 6,6.

Is it a bug?

Thanks.

I'm having the same issue. I have a field with a precision of 2 and a scale of 1.
It would be great if the attribute table widget had a precision tag.

I'm afraid ESRI don't read our thread :(.
