How to label drawings in Draw widget?

[DanCopKac]

Seems like a really easy task but I'm somehow not getting it.

How do I label my drawings and points in the draw widget?

@DanCopKac , unfortunately, that functionality isn't available.  See https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-experience-builder-questions/add-text-to-the-draw-markup-widget...

Here's a link to the functionality matrix for widgets in ExB vs. WAB  https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-experience-builder-documents/individual-widget-functionality-ma...

Seems pretty crazy that the draw widget was added over 18 months ago... I thought maybe they only just recently added the draw widget. WAB to the death then!

Hi @DanCopKac, draw text is in our product plan and is in progress. We will give you an update once we have a timelframe for it.

Thank you. In the meantime, you guys might want to reference Robert's custom draw widget. He used to be a prominent member of this community. 

His draw widget for ExB was released over 2.5 years ago and it has text support, and also doesn't erase drawings when resizing. 😊

It realy is the eDraw Widget that we need a port to EXB: GitHub - magis-nc/esri-webappbuilder-widget-eDraw: Ehanced draw widget for WebApp Builder for Arcgis...  / With the current Draw widget, I dont even see a use case since there is no label, no export/import, etc.
