Reassign display text in table using advanced formatting (remove underscores)

[dwold]

I would like to change the display text in a table. Currently, my values have underscores. I would like to remove those underscores so it is cleaner on the table. I am new to arcade but I believe I need to assign a variable and change the text values there and then call that variable in the displayText line?

I have used the Replace function in Arcade to replace my underscores for spaces (at least in a popup window). I think it should work for a table too. Here is an example:

And this is the developer site for the function itself: https://developers.arcgis.com/arcade/function-reference/text_functions/#replace

@AdrianWelsh thanks for the tip!!

Yes. You are on the right track. You will want to use the Replace function to search for _ and replace it with a space. 

var prettytext = Replace($datapoint.core_capability, '_', ' ')

In the below example, my data has commas instead of an underscore, but the basic principle is the same.
