Measure widget / tool for instant apps

[WilliamRockwell1]

Surprised to find no measure tool/widget for the instant apps, in general or minimalist.

We plan to add this capability to the app configuration experience at the next release. For now if you are comfortable with using the AGO Assistant<> to edit your application’s json data you could set the property for either the measureAreaUnit or measureLinearUnit. You can find valid values for the area and linear untis here:
https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/api-reference/esri-widgets-Measurement.html#areaUnit
https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/api-reference/esri-widgets-Measurement.html#linearUn...


Here’s an example of how the app json looks with the values added:

"datePublished": 1669222983946,
"measure": true,
"measureAreaUnit": "acres",
"measureLinearUnit":"miles"

Any update on this? Curious when this will be added to the attachment viewer?

My users have shown me that the measure tool does not work the same way as it did in Web AppBuilder. For example, a user can only make one linear measurement and then has to clear out the measurement to make an additional measurement or even to select other data in the map.

Also, the measurement tool in Experience Builder (and others) doesn't allow someone to create a circle with a radial measurement. That's a pretty common need. Also, having the ability to make multiple measurements should be part of the tool offering because users want to make comparisons, measure multiple objects and distances between multiple objects, etc.
