Item moved to 'Recent' items list after adding a feature

[RafaeldePedro]

Hi, 

When using Field Maps to add features on the map, whichever category was selected when adding the feature, is removed from the original list and moved to the top of the screen under a new 'recent' items section.

This behaviour has been reported to me as I am not on site using Field Maps  but it seems that it didn't happen in previous versions.

Here's a screenshot attached to illustrate the situation I'm describing: The 'A tree' and 'B hedgerow' categories have been added under the header 'Recent' and removed from their original layers.

Is this behaviour expected, is it a bug? Or is there a setting that can be used to disable this occurrence? 

This happened on an Android device, using Field Maps version 22.0.1

Thank you,

Thank you,

@RafaeldePedro This is expected behavior. For domain lists we store recent selected values at the top of the list for easier repeated entry. There are also recents available for selection on other certain field types but accessed in a slightly different way. Is this affecting your field workflows and if so in what ways?

Regards,

Colin

Hi @ColinLawrence  thank you for your reply. Some field workers that use Field Maps on site have found it just a bit annoying that they might go to the original list and the item has disappeared and gone to the Recents section. I understand and agree that the "recent" list can make it easier to use, but I would've expected that the items get copied into this list rather than 'moved', if that makes sense?

Hi @RafaeldePedro , your feedback does make sense and I can see the frustration. I will relay this information to our team and designers. Thanks!
