Layer transparency in .mmpk file?

[VickiG]

Hi, I recently made a .mmpk file for our android devices, creating from a map in ArcGIS Pro.  There was a layer in the Pro map that was 75% transparent (a buffer around a point layer), but when the mmpk file was created and opened in the handheld app, the layer was opaque.

I haven't been able to find anything specific on how to control the transparency in the mmpk file or even if it is possible.

Thanks for any ideas!

I really don't have anything definitive, but I thought that this was a known limitation of the field app. I may be misremembering that though as this would have been several years ago.

In my super quick internet search, I found a similar issue with Field Maps which aligns with what my memory thinks it remembers regarding S123.

abureaux, Thanks for your reply!  Good to know it wasn't something I was missing.  Should be pretty easy to work around, just make the circle buffer layer no fill, border only and export to mmpk.  That would be fine in the S123 app.  We also supplement with Avenza Geo pdfs, so any really important symbology can be put in those.

Thanks again!
