Updating Layer in Visualization Tab has Popup to Update Layer in Select Maps

[Nick_Creedon]

Updating a layer in the visualization pane sets the default for when a layer is added to a new map. I haven't seen it update a layer that is in an existing map. I have to go to all the maps, remove the layer, and re-add the layer with the updated changes, or I have to customize the layer again, but in the map.

My Idea is that once you click save in the visualization pane, a pop-up appears with a list of maps the layer is in. You may go in and select/deselect maps that you don't want the layer updates to push out to.

If the map doesnt contain a popup info the layer item popup will be used. If you want to pull in the layer item configuration you can pick to use the feature layer item as the source to drive this. You can see where the popup is stored under the layer properties panel click on info button above Manage Layer properties

You will probably see something like this to help you see what is coming from the map vs. the layer item

Clicking on Manage layer props button will show you an option to reset to source which will point to the layer item configuration and remove the configuration in the web map. *this is only persisted until you re-save or save as the web map. 

You can go back to that "some properties" info button and will see the updates to where things are stored.
