Currently in AGOL and Portal the only configuration is to set the default unit of measure for the new map viewer to either metric or US Standard. In the US Standard the default is Miles but I would like the measure tool to default to feet.

Additionally, each time you click on the measure tool, select feet, measure and close the tool, the next time you click measure it resets back to Miles. Would be nice to at least stay on the last measure unit used in a session.

Go to the Organization Tab

Select Settings

On the left select Map

Under Map Units select the default units you want.

I dont see this for the new map viewer in portal 10.9.1.

Still looking for a resolution to this one. It would be great for those of us who work in feet all the time.

Ive asked the product developers at the UC a few times and they said they would write this idea down and see but I havent heard of any progress on this topic....
