I have a geotrace field in my primary layer of my Survey123. I am using body::esri:style method=vertex,streaming,beep distanceThreshold=6 lineColor=red
I was hoping it would start collecting the a stream of locations when the survey was opened, much like how quickcapture works.
What I am observing is the user must:
If the user hits the back button at the top left while in the map view the while collecting verticies the trace is completely lost with no 'are you sure you want to lose all your data' warning.
Ideally I'd like to see the app automatically start collecting a trace when the survey opens and allow the user to return to the survey and fill it out while the geotrace continues to record the path.
At the very least I'd like to see the streaming recording be one click away when body::esri:style is method=vertex,streaming and show a warning about losing your data when hitting the back button
Maybe I'm configuring the field incorrectly, if anyone could chirp in, it'd be much appreciated!
Seconded, I would also like to stream geotrace vertices in the background while filling out the rest of the form. I'm collecting meander survey data for vegetation, and it would be helpful to follow the meander track on a time or distance interval in the background while also collecting data on other parts of the form.
Anyone have luck with this? I would also really like to be able to record a track in the background while completing the rest of the survey.
Yeah, I need to stream, back out, take a point, then return to the stream, but there is no resume functionality either. Survey123 and Field Maps will have to be both used to accomplish what I need until they improve Survey123.
