Execute button in Query widget

MikeOnzay — Thu, 12 Jan 2017 22:39:06 GMT

I set up a the query tool in the WAB for a user to draw a shape to select address points. I watched the user skip drawing the shape and just click Execute. This resulted in the application hanging because I think was trying to return every address point or at least the maximum set on the server.

Is it possible to set the Execute button to not be ready until the user draws the shape?

Mike,

If you are using WAB Dev Edition then you can switch to the eSearch widget which does not execute until after a geometry is drawn.

If you are set on using the Query widget then I might be able to find some time to track down the required code changes (once again requiring WAB Dev Edition).

Thanks. I'm not interested in using the developer edition. I will post on the ideas board.
