Hi Folks, I am developing an app using the ArcGIS JavaScript API and the Editor Widget. Everything works very well and is easy to implement, however I want to change the Title of the Editor Widget from "Editor" to "Comments". Further I want to be able to hide the Edit Feature option and change the name of the Add Feature option to "Add a Comment"

It seems like this should be possible with configuration settings, but I can't figure out how to do it. Is this possible and if so, how?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm presuming you are using v4 of the API? If so, you can hide the Edit feature option through configuration:

Editor | ArcGIS API for JavaScript 4.15 

const editor = new Editor({ view: view, allowedWorkflows: ["update"] // allows only updates and no adds });

The title of widget buttons is held in strings files within the API. Given that you are probably getting the API from a CDN then you will have to find some way to override the html.
