QUERY TOOL NOT ZOOMING TO SELECTED POLYGON

FinbarGillen — Wed, 14 Dec 2016 11:08:07 GMT

Hi all,

I have set up the "out of box" Query tool to select and zoom to a polygon based on two attribute queries (Site Code & Plot Number). In the results box it states it has found the selected polygon but it does not identify it in the box or on the map. I have set up other queries in relation to this layer and they work fine!

I previously had this Query set up in another viewer and it has stopped working as well. Any ideas?

Regards

Finbar

Does this type of query work on other layers? Have you checked to see if there any any geometry issues/projection with the polygon layer in question? If the attribute has no geometry or projection, it won't know where to zoom to.

Is this in WAB in ArcGIS Online, Portal or Dev Edition?

Hi Carmel,

This query worked before for the layer in question! Its a simple attribute query. I cannot see any issue with the projection. I am developing the app in Web AppBuilder Developer Edition 2.1 and it sits on out internal server.

Have you hidden the shape and or ObjectId fields in the mxd?

Hi Robert,

Originally thought this was the issue but I've checked and both fields are not hidden. I have also uploaded the app to WAB Developer Edition 2.2 to see if I could recreate the query in it but it still isn't working.

Finbar,

What errors are shown in the browsers web console if any?

rscheitlin‌,

The Query works when create a web app within ArcGIS Online. Must be some issue with my web appbuilder.

Finbar,

So there will likely be an error displayed in the browsers web console with you execute the query in WAB then.

Finbar,

Are there no red errors in the console after you have run the query that fails to zoom?

Robert,

No there's not! It's strange because it works alright when I recreate the query in ArcGIS Online. In that case the mxd is alright but there is something up with Web AppBuilder.

I have been able to get a work around though.

1. I created an application on ArcGIS Online with the multiple attribute Query and downloaded the code for it to my machine.

2. I then created an empty application within WAB Developer Edition 2.2

3. I went to the folder of the empty application and copied all the code from the app I developed on ArcGIS Online over to it

This now allows me to add in customised widgets to the app.

Finbar,

Hmm. The AGOL version of WAB is newer then the WAB Dev version so I would have thought you would have received an error when doing that.

Well at least you have it working.

Robert,

You are correct! It worked up until the point I wanted to add custom widgets. This is what appeared in the console.

Any idea of when WAB Developer Edition 2.3 will be released?

It is released a couple of weeks after the AGOL version is released. So likely mid to late January 2017
