+1, would really like to have some of the image data maintained (e.g location).

‎01-23-2015

Couple of existing ideas seem to cover it.. http://shar.es/1bkVEy http://shar.es/1bkVTg

I think you're right - I'll ask local Esri folk to have a look but I think it will be a working-as-intended or submit-an-idea response.

That is true, but the location of a feature isn't necessarily the location of the collector. Or if the feature is at the physical location of the collector, the image may have been taken at a different location to the feature. In a lot of cases it's not an issue, but I'm not sure I can convince auditors to trust people as much as me

Hi, bit of a problem with attachments. Pictures taken in Collector don't have any associated location data, which isn't great. I thought I'd be able to workaround this by attaching images from the device's gallery taken with the device's camera outside of Collector, but it seems Collector actively strips out lots of Exif data from the image including the location. Is there anyway to preserve the location data of an attachment image?

You can.. Open your web map in AGOL Click the drop-down arrow next to the layer "Configure Pop-up" Set Display to "A custom attribute display" "CONFIGURE" Then set what text and links you want to appear in the Custom Attribute Display window "OK" "SAVE POP-UP"

In AGOL I can configure the title that's shown on a web map pop-up for a feature and this flows through to the feature's attributes page in Collector. Is there a way to get this title to be shown in the "Features" list in Collector (where you see a list of everything selected)? Currently it looks like Collector has picked two attributes at random for a feature layer and is using them in the Features list, but unfortunately the ones it has picked for me don't have much use to the user. I don't want the user to have to go in to each feature to see if it's the one they want. Thanks! (Quick edit - the search results list is smarter than the Features list as it shows the attribute that you've searched on, which makes sense.)

Has anyone experienced the inability to change symbol on one layer in a web map, whilst it works on the rest / others? I have a point layer that doesn't do anything when I go to Change Symbols - Option - Change Symbol, but in the Chrome logs I can see some error messages which don't happen on the other layers in my map (including other point layers). The log is: arcgisonline.js:2615 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'color' of undefined arcgisonline.js:2615 b.declare.updateUI arcgisonline.js:2610 b.declare.init arcgisonline.js:7075 b.declare.showSymbol arcgisonline.js:4182 b.declare._onSimpleChangeSymbolClick dojo.js:176 (anonymous function) dojo.js:176 (anonymous function) dojo.js:243 g.(anonymous function).h base.js:98 b.onItemClick base.js:93 (anonymous function) dojo.js:219 (anonymous function) .. any clues? Thanks.

The order in the Layers list respects what's setup in my web map, but the ordering for Collect New seems to have organised things by points then lines then polygons (and then seemingly-randomly within each shape type). Is there a way to get it to match the behaviour of Layers? Currently I have around 35 different things that someone can collect and the layer ordering I setup tries to keep similar things together in the absence of grouping capabilities in web maps / Collector.

You may need to install this: Download 2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components from Official Microsoft Download Center Because: Importing Data from Excel Spreadsheets

Sounds like you're after a spatial join? ArcGIS Help (10.2, 10.2.1, and 10.2.2) Target - your lines Join features - your polygons Field map - the fields you want to include in the output line features Match option / join operation - dependent on what you want to do with lines going across polygons / etc

Thanks for the details!

Thanks for the confirmation - I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5".

Thanks Paul, I'm hoping a lot of the issues are due to connectivity problems at my end (free O2 wifi on-site) - I'll keep testing. When the Collector app actually crashes on Android and prompts you to report the error, does this error report actually find its way to Esri or does it just go to Google?

‎10-28-2014

Unfortunately the update seems to have mainly given me crashes and taken away the ability to sync!
