Can anyone confirm whether or not the text that gets placed on the map when measurements are turned on in the draw widget is showing up when using the print widget?  I cannot get the text on the map to also display on the map produced from the print widget.  It is removed from the resulting pdf or image from the print service.  Thanks.

Yep, text prints.

Using stock widgets. Just tossed them in to a new app to test.

Actually, this is likely a bug. I just got lucky and picked the one feature that actually prints properly.

Lines work. Nothing else does.

...I get the text on the map, BUT NOT in the pdf or image that comes out of the Print Widget through an ArcGIS Server print service.  It doesn't look like that's what you tested.  Can you confirm that the text (even just for the line) shows up on the pdf or image that comes out of such a print service?  Thanks.

My screen caps are from the PDF output. NOT the map. Yes, all text appears properly on the map.

Okay. Hold up... I was just grabbing some better screen caps to prove that was the PDF... and now it's working!

Map:

This is obviously not working reliably right now... This is the same app. No changes since my last test where it didn't work.

(EDIT: Yes, I see how ambiguous those first screen caps are now. Again, I do promise they are of the PDF, not the Web Map. These screen caps should leave less to the imagination)

This is a known API bug. I'll let you know when it's fixed.

Fantastic.

I haven't needed to print measurements much in the past, but our new web app goes online in a couple of weeks so I imagine demand will spike. This is one of those things I always assumed worked and didn't bother testing more than once after it did what I expected. At least I can tell people it will be fixed soon (tm).

Any update on fixing this?  It is a basic need that web app builder users have come to rely on.  It will slow adoption of Experience Builder.  Thanks.
