Multiple filter widgets acting on single layer?

[KaraG]

Is it possible to have multiple filter widgets that act simultaneously on the same layer (and in fact the same variable in the same layer)? Basically I have several different groups of options, which I want to be able to display as separate groups with some text explaining them (hence separate filter widgets) but allow the user to mix and match options from both within and among the groups. I started out with two separate filter widgets to see if it would work and nothing in the layer is showing (even though some of the filters are set to be on at startup). I’m just wondering is nothing showing up because it is not possible to have multiple filter widgets acting on one layer or if it is my user error and I need to change an option somewhere. 

if the multiple filter widgets is not possible, does anyone have an idea for an alternative way to do what I want to do? Thank you!

Hi KaraG,

Could you tell about the application scenario for this requirement?

Thanks,

Hi, yes, so basically let's say I have 5 polygons of protected areas and I'm accepting proposals to change the boundaries of any or all of them. So person A submits a proposal to expand the boundaries of #1, 2, and 3. Person B submits a proposal to reduce the boundaries of #3. Person C submits a proposal to alter the boundaries of #2 and 4. Each person submits reasons to justify their proposal. 

I have a shapefile of the existing protected areas. To visualize the three proposals, I have digitized what each person is asking for and added these to the original shapefile, so now I have, for example, three versions of protected area #2 (the existing plus the two proposals). 

These proposals need to be made available to the public, so what I want to do is create a map in Experience Builder where users could read about each proposal and also toggle on/off various combinations of options from each proposal. Like maybe someone wants to see what it looks like to keep the existing #1, 4, and 5, but take person A's version of #2 and person B's version of #3. My original idea to do this was to kind of couple a separate set of filters with each individual proposal summary. I'm now realizing this is probably not the best way to do this from a user standpoint, which renders my original question moot, but I am still curious if that theoretically would have been possible. 

thank you!
