Ryan, How did you sign up for the Beta?  It does not show up in the early adopter website as a Beta program yet.  At least with my log in it doesn't. Thanks Dan ... View more

Thank you.  I will be using this particular WAB app to do some data Qa\QC so it would be nice to not worry about accidentally deleting a point when I am logged in as admin.  Not a big deal though as long as the subordinate users of the app can't delete points. ... View more

Hi Jianxia, I am the owner of the feature service and the administrator of the organization.  When I log in to the WAB app using my admin login, I can delete features with the editor tool even though the feature layer is set to "add features only".  If I log in to the same WAB app using another log-in from our organization that only has "user" rights, it does appear that I can not delete any features using the editor widget. So this seems to reflect correctly and validate what you were asking me to test.  I am not sure I like this default of the admin being able to delete features in a layer you set to update or add only.  But I guess as long as anyone else using it can't delete the points then I should be find.

Okay thank you for looking into it.  If there is a fix or work around, please let me know. Dan ... View more

One thing that has not be answered is about how the save app state on exit is turning off all the layers inside of a grouped layer that were defaulted to being checked on in the table of contents.  Is this a bug, or by design?  Is anyone else seeing this behavior after the November update? ...

Another way is to use the custom templates group.  if you save all your basemaps individually as maps saved to the custom templates group (you have to set your default basemap gallery to look to that group), you can use a "1-", "2-", "3-" prefix infront of the basemap name.  When you add the basemap widget, it will honor that numbering as it sorts the basemap tiles.  You simply have to click on each one and remove the number in WAB.  If you want to reorder the basemap tiles, simply go back to your custom templates group, and change the number pre-fix, then go to WAB and remove the basemap widget, and re-add it, which will prompt it to reorder the basemap choices. So that is my duct tape and bubble gum method, which will take just as long up front as adding them manually into WAB, but will be much quicker in the long run especially if you have multiple applications you are building. ...

Thanks Robert.  I am not sure why I didn't think of that.  Up too late last night watching the Patriots beat my Buffalow Bills I guess. here is the list of new zoom level scales. http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer ... View more

Sometimes all you need to do is read the help menu.  ESRI clearly states that if you use several of their new URL parameters, it will not save app state on close.  So I simply added "&level=16" to the end of my app shortcut url (my map started at zoom level 16 before), it starts out at the default map extent like it used to, and the issue with grouped layer subordinates being un-checked also goes away. I guess I would prefer an option in the web app builder configuration page about saving app state, but for now, this workaround will do. http://doc.arcgis.com/en/web-appbuilder/manage-apps/app-url-parameters.htm ...
