S123 Polygon geometry changing after being drawn (windows app)

Question

Hello,

I'm using a repeat geoshape question in a form I built in Survey123 Connect (version 3.11.123). I am using the expression "method=vertex Color=red" in the body::esri:style column to make sure that the shape can be collected using vertex points. In our workflow, the user interacts with the form on their computer using the ArcGIS for Survey123 app (verson 3.11.164). When the user in the survey123 app on their desktop computer, the geometry of the polygon changes between what they draw and what is submitted with the form. This does not happen when the form is filled out on an iphone, and I assume other mobile devices though I haven't been able to test all.

Is this a known issue? Is there a work around?

Things I have tried to troubleshoot:

1. Remove the method=vertex

2.change the basemap from a custom webmap to a standar map

3. uninstall and reinstall the ArcGIS for Survey123 app on the computer.

Thank you!

@IanGallo, the problem at the time when I posted it was resolved with an update to survey123 3.12**, however, I have recently had users complaining about the same behaviour happening again. I haven't been able to replicate the error on my side, but of our users are definitely having a problem, as shown below (the red line is where the polygon should have been).

@BrettStokes I am seeing this same issue - shapes collected in desktop app shift once submitted.

S123 desktop on windows 3.14.255

S123 Connect: 3.14.274

@Mondi_GIS @UlteigEngineers did you ever find a solution to this?

I have had similar issues with the geometry shifting between when it is captured and then I accept the geometry and it shifts when we accept it.
