Hello, I've created a dashboard and added the scale bar option to the map widget. However I have noticed the scale bar is in Imperial showing miles, feet, etc. Being from Canada and creating this dashboard for a Canadian client, it would make much more logical sense to have the scale bar represent Kilometres, Metres, etc. I do not see an option to change the units for the scale bar, and am wondering if there is a way to do this? We are working with Enterprise 11.2.
Solved! Go to Solution.
At an individual dashboard level, I don't believe there is a way to change the units of the scalebar. However, at the Portal level, you should be able to do this (although I haven't verified if this carries through to dashboards).
You can change the map units for all maps in your Portal settings. Below is the link to the Esri documentation that tells you how to do it. It will be under the Map defaults section. https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/11.2/administer/windows/configure-map.htm

Thank you so much! Went and changed that setting and it did get reflected in the dashboard map. Appreciate the help.
