Very basic question about pop-ups

[CharlesEiseman]

In ArcMap I was able to use the Identify tool to display the attributes of a feature I clicked on. In ArcGIS Pro, the pop-up is just displaying one field from each feature I click on, and usually not the field I'm interested in. I understand that I should be able to change this by going to "Configure Pop-Ups," but I can't make any sense of what I'm seeing when I go there. How can I get the pop-up to display all the attributes? Or make it display a different one than the one it's defaulting to?

By default you should see the layer name and 1 field below the title that defaults to first field or first field with Name in field name.

Below that should be all the fields in the layer with the selected feature values.

How many fields are in the feature class you are trying to Identify on?

[CharlesEiseman]

There are multiple shapefiles (not feature classes, if this makes a difference) that I'm trying to do this with. The number of fields ranges from 4 to 14; in general there is just one or two that I really want to display. 

Earlier today I somehow got to a place where I was able to see the name of the field being displayed in {brackets} and I replaced the name with the one I wanted, and that worked, but I haven't been able to find my way back to that when trying to look at data from other shapefiles. The way this is set up is very non-intuitive.

Two things:

1. You can change what the feature is named in the popup by going to label properties--> display
2. I have users frequently accidentally hide the actual popup information.
   1. When this happens, hover your mouse down at the bottom right, north of the magnifying glass, and you should be able to bring it back by adjusting the window

The Pop-up displays the contents of what is designated as the Display Field in the top section. This is set by default to the first Text field with "name" somewhere in the field name or if non exists, to the first Text field. You can manually set this under Layer Properties --> Display --> Display Field.

As for not seeing all the field contents, look for a solid grey bar in the Pop-up pane that separates the Top and Bottom parts of the Pop-up. The bar can be dragged up or down to create space as needed. There are three little widgets on the right side of the bar that let you hide the top, bottom or otherwise reconfigure (split) the Pop-up. Hover over these to see their tip.

If for example you click the Hide Bottom widget

only the top section remains and the grey bar moves to the bottom. You can grab the bar and drag it up to expose as much of the lower section as you want.

Thanks, I followed how to change the display field. Is it possible to get it to display more than one field though?

[Robert_LeClair]

Yes.  In the Layer Properties->Display, click on the "X" to the right of the primary display field and using some custom Arcade, you can have as many fields as you want in the MapTips popup.

To list additional field values in the Title section of the Pop-up although there is only so much room:

Click the Title section in the Configure Pop-ups pane

Drop down the field names of interest from the Field pulldown. Leave a space between before dropping the next one. Such as:

You can also insert text such as

To control which fields display in the lower panel:

Click the Edit icon

Turn off

then turn off fields you don't want to see.
