Through the 'Configure Pop-Up', then 'Configure Fields' option I have unchecked some fields in my field collection form which carry through to the App perfectly. However, when downloaded to FGDB, CSV or shapefile, all of the fields are again visible. I appreciate this may be an ArcGIS Online overall issue, but wondered if anyone had any thoughts? Thanks, Francis.

When working with numeric fields in the App (float, long or short integer for instance..) it seems you can not have a field open as empty by default, it is always populated by a value. This is fine where a range is set but otherwise it can mean a lot more time in the field as the process of deleting and re-entering a value is time consuming. Is it not possible to have an empty numeric field by default ? I am aware that text fields can be empty by default on opening. Thanks, Francis.

Following numerous conversations with ESRI support staff, to my knowledge there is no means of retrieving road link speeds on screen (simple click/identify) once a road network has been successfully created and built via Productivity Suite. Thisn is crucial for on screen validation and sense checking and I am sure this would be a great help to many users if it could be added.

Cheers Daniel, In this instance I think we do need to view the fields requiring 'Not a Null Value' support, so this approach would be unsuitable. But this is a great bit of advice that I can implement on other projects so many thanks! Francis.

I note from a discussion last year Compulsory Fields? that Null Fields weren't supported. Having just tried it again it seems this is still not supported. If this is the case, can anyone suggest a workaround for open text fields? I would imagine it is a pretty fundamental element to many workflows.

I would be interested in knowing this also..

Thanks Anthony, yes I have had a look at the continuous collection options which are of use, but not quite what we need. I just wondered if there was anything a bit more intuitive we could make use of but no worries, thanks for the response. Cheers.

Not sure if this is device or App specific, but one of our users has asked whether the App can include a Predictive Text feature, allowing a quicker way of populating fields that require common answers, without having to scroll through the dropdown options, a particular time-saver in heavily populated dropdown fields. Haven't seen much about this online or on the forums so would be great to find out if it's been looked at all.

I understand it is possible to capture the current date and time via the App and this works fine for me, however I would like this information to be captured automatically with every feature collected rather than our collectors needing to press a button to set this. The question was asked in a previous post but it didn't seem to receive a definitive answer? Using DateTime fields with time included‌ Thanks, Francis.

Thanks Russ did the trick! I will come and say hello at the UC next month.

I can successfully add my own basemap and download through the Collector App, however i can not work out how to use my own basemap as a backdrop to data collection once downloaded, I keep receiving the same error message (see attachment). Strangely i am also getting the same issue when downloading one of the ESRI hosted basemaps so I am hopeful this is a quick fix? Thanks.

Many Thanks Russ, all sorted! Cheers, Francis

Is it possible to define the contents of a drop down field at the beginning of a session, for example if I have a drop-down field to capture the name of the member of staff, can I assign this value to everything captured within that particular session, without having to select the same name repetitively? (effectively selecting once and making all remaining fields pre-populated and read-only). I believe this functionality is available within the ArcPad setup?
