I am working on an application in experience builder and part of it uses the edit widget. In the image below, I cannot figure out how to change the order of what is displayed below "Create features". I have tried everything I can think of, but no matter what I do it doesn't change, if I change the symbology the symbol itself will change, but if I symbolize by type, then reorder the list it doesn't change. The second image below shows how I want the list to look in the edit widget as an example.

Does anyone know of a way to change this? It has been driving me crazy.

Hi @Chase_RSO , do modify the feature templates you'll need to use a templates manager.

While there isn't one yet available in the New Map Viewer, you can take advantage of the templates manager in Field Maps Designer.

Open your web map in the designer and make changes to your templates. Save it and then you should see the changes reflected when you refresh your app and try to edit.

This works as a solution though it is not very elegant or intuitive. When I went to into Field Maps Designer I had a template for each of the types in my first image from my original post, and I cannot add a new template, so I had to duplicate one of the items in an existing template so that I could add items that were not on the list when this is done all of the icons look the same in the template (not ideal) but they do display correctly on the web map/experience builder app. Also I do not see a way to delete the templates or rename them which would be desirable for organizational purpose. 

This does solve my issue though, Thank you!

@Chase_RSO I totally agree that this is not optimal at this time. This templates manager is planned to be added to the Map Viewer soon, which should help streamline this.

For deleting there should be a trash button next to each template, and also you should be able to rename each template using the Properties panel on the right?

I can delete the singular template, but each feature type I have has its own template group (I am not sure what this is called). I can delete the template in the group but cannot delete that grouping itself, I have found a way around this using map viewer classic. Either way I can make it work, and look like what I want it to for my end user. 

Thank you,
