I would like the ability to apply Field Views to attribute tables for feature layers in different .aprx files. I have a data layer with numerous attribute columns that are used by different levels of staff, both internal and external. Setting the visibility and order of attributes takes a bit of time every time this layer is added to a new map.
It would be nice to have an export option(similar to style files) to apply a field view style (preset order and visibility) for these attribute columns. So I would have a base style that shows all attribute but ordered specific to my needs. The second would show specific fields in a specific order for internal staff and a third would show specific fields in a specific order for external customers. I envision going to field view and applying the style to control this visibility and order, similar to how symbology can be applied to a feature layer based on a .stylx file.
This would be a huge timesaving feature.
I have a similar problem with the Network Analyst Routes field order. There are 26 fields and only about 8 that I need to view or edit.
My solution was to establish the needed order, symbology, etc, for five points and save it as a layer file.
On future projects, it will be quicker and easier to import the layer file than change the source than to reorder fields for each layer.
There must be Data associated with the saved layer that has the same fields that your new data will need.
When I output to KMZ, the Parcel layer that is exported has the same issue, many fields with extraneous information, and the order is not in the order that the end user needs for quick access in the field.
I have created layer files that have the correct fields on, field order set, and useless fields are hidden.
