Can I change the layer name display?

SusanMordy1 — Mon, 09 Mar 2015 16:21:02 GMT

I would prefer not have an underscore displayed in the map layer name (source of the underscore would be the map service name). Can I rename my map layer names in Web AppBuilder? I know I can do this in AGOL.

Thanks,

Sussan

In the Developer Version you have more control of things like that. if you go to the attribute config file for your app:

arcgis-web-appbuilder-1.0\server\apps\##\configs\AttributeTable\config_Attribute Table.json

then you can change the name there.

For the AGOL version I agree with zhongren Gu you need to change the name of the layer in the mxd and then republish.

Hey, in my arcgis-web-appbuilder-1.0，i can't find the "arcgis-web-appbuilder-1.0\server\apps\##\configs\AttributeTable\config_Attribute Table.json", and i searched in "arcgis-web-appbuilder-1.0" folder, can you send me the whole path.

thanks

Zhongren,

If you do not make some change in the Attribute Table Widgets settings dialog and save those changes then you will not find the file. The file path will be exactly as Stan suggests

\server\apps\##\configs\AttributeTable\config_Attribute Table.json

Robert Scheitlin:

copy that. I must change my widget in customing my widget，then the path will be success.

thanks
