Jeremie Cornet​ What version number is the release from 10/21 or 10/22?  Manifest.json says 1.3.3, as does manifest.json from a couple releases in the last two weeks of September.  I've been keeping copies of the older widgets, in the event something new has problems, with titles that reflect the release number.  Thanks.

Tom Sellsted​ Thanks, I see what you mean regarding modifying vertices of circles, etc.  Knowing where to go in the code to change that setting is very helpful though. Also, I was looking incorrectly at the text editing capabilities.  I thought the user could modify the appearance of an individual piece of text or label as opposed to all items.  I see now that any changes a person makes in font color or size applies to all text or labels.  Sorry about the confusion. Thanks again. ... View more

Tom Sellsted​  The updates are great and the help doc is a really nice touch.  Our users will really like being able to edit lines and polygons and the live measurement updates as well. I will also second Kevin's idea of the Lat/Long measurement.  I personally don't use it, but we have surveyors that use our site everyday and many of them are looking for coordinate measurements.  The Coordinate widget can provide that, but it's not as slick as what you see in the 'Measure and Draw' widget in Flex. Beyond that, is it possible for us to change anything in the configuration (widget.js maybe?) that will allow the user to modify the shapes of the other graphics?  I have a feeling the majority of our users will be using the line and polygon features far more often than anything else, but am just curious to know if modifying the other features is an option by editing the code. Also, it looks like the user can only modify one piece of text/label that is generated.  Am I seeing that correctly?  If so, is it possible to enable editing of all text/labels or simply have the option completely removed so nothing can be modified? Thanks for all of your work. ... View more

Robert Scheitlin, GISP​ Thank you.  I wish I would have paid better attention to that. ... View more

Robert Scheitlin, GISP​ Robert: I don't want the identify from "All Layers" to be an option for my users, so I've checked the "Only These" box in the configuration.  My config_Identify.json reflects the setting that I want, but "All Layers" continues to be an option in the dropdown list on my application. Has anybody else reported the same thing?  Could I have accidentally changed other settings in this process that would override "Only These"?  It doesn't appear to cause any problems, meaning I don't get any results when using identifying "All Layers", but I'd like to get rid of that item from the dropdown. Below are images of my config_Identify.json, WAB configuration window and widget in my application. ... View more

Jeremie Cornet​ This is looking great!  I've tested this weekend's release with //tasks.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Geometry/GeometryServer and my geometry service, as well as with or without "Use Geometry Engine" checked and the measurements are accurate.  The only issue I see at the moment is the labels don't delete upon deletion of the polyline or polygon object.  Did I read correctly that a label should automatically delete in that instance?  Either way, it's easy to manually delete a label that doesn't correspond to another object. I like that you can create a polyline or polygon without the label, then edit the feature and check on "show measurements", save the changes and the label appears.  And, it's great to have the label update as you edit the size/shape of the feature.  Our users will really like that. Thank you very much. ... View more

Robert Scheitlin, GISP​ Have you had any problems exporting results from the Attribute Table to .csv when using IE?  I assume this is an IE issue and not an Attribute Table or Enhanced Search widget issue as Firefox and Chrome work as they should (and I've tested all three browsers on five different machines with only IE11 not working), but just want to check with you on that. If it is an IE issue, do you think in your next release you could have a piece of text, button, etc. available that lets the user know it is best to not use IE if the goal is to export results to .csv?  Or do you have a tip or two on how to add that to the widget?  Or is there a setting in the current widget I should change? I can add more details later on what happens with IE if you need them.  For now I'm just curious to know if you've experienced any problems with IE and export to CSV. ... View more

Thanks, Robert.  This gets me what I need.  I definitely appreciate the help as I would not have been able to figure that out on my own. ... View more

Kevin MacLeod​ I just tried a couple measurements again (in Firefox & Chrome) and it is working for me with the same settings that I listed above. ... View more

Jeremie Cornet​ & Kevin MacLeod​ Thanks for the updates.  Everything is looking good for me so far in WAB Developer.  I have tested distance with the two-point line feature (in feet) and area with the freehand polygon feature (in acres and sq ft) under the following settings and received measurements that were correct or very close to what they should be, subject to my digitizing abilities: [//tasks.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Geometry/GeometryServer, Use geometry engine (not checked)] [//tasks.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Geometry/GeometryServer, Use geometry engine (checked)] [my geometry service, Use geometry engine (not checked)] [my geometry service, Use geometry engine (checked)] Is there anything else I should test? Jeremie, like Kevin said, this widget is great and with a few more tweaks would probably be all we need for measuring and drawing.  And, just like Kevin, I currently have your eDraw widget and Tom Sellsted​ 's Measure widget in my application.  They're both great but it would be even better if we could get it down to one widget.  This is coming from somebody (me) who hasn't created a widget though so I don't know how much of a hassle it is to create it and keep tweaking it for others. One question about the snapping capabilities - can you snap to features in the map services or can you only snap to other features created in the eDraw widget? Again Jeremie, thank you. ...

Jeremie: Thank you for looking into my questions.  Please know they were just wishlist items though and anything you can incorporate into future releases is extremely appreciated. I tested the standard Draw and Measurement widgets and received distance and area measurements that are in-line with what they should be.  I then re-tested the eDraw widget and got the following measurements: Distance actual distance = 125' or 38.1m measured distance1 = 407' measured distance2 = 124m Area actual area = 12500 sq ft or 1,161sq m measured area1 = ~132,000 sq ft measured area2 = ~12,250 sq m Thanks again. ...

Tom: This widget is really nice, thank you.  I have a few suggestions or questions for you. 1. Is it possible to work in the ability to edit the lines, polygon and text features created in the widget?  This would be similar to Jeremie Cornet's eDraw widget​. 2. I like how the area and perimeter labels for polygons are generated on two separate lines.  Would it be possible to place the abbreviations for area and perimeter in front of them, similar to what you've set up for height and width? 3. If you are able to work in the ability to edit it would be great to have any measurements update as the object is modified. Thanks for all of the work you've put into this. ... View more

Jeremie: I have a few more questions for you. 1. Is it possible to create a text graphic that has multiple lines?  Or will the user need to create individual pieces, then stack them to make it appear like it's one block with multiple lines? 2. Is there any chance in your next release you can have a label ahead of each area and distance measurement that say "area" or "length" or "perimeter?"  I admit this would consume a lot more space but it might be a good addition if it's not too cumbersome.  If you can do that, maybe it would be good to have them on separate lines if that is possible too? 3. This may have to do with the conversion factor but when I draw a line that should be ~1,320 ft in length the label shows ~4,290 ft.  Is there something in the config that I need to adjust?  My data is in State Plane. 4. Going along with #3, the total area of a ~40 acre tract is measuring ~440 acres. 5. Is it possible to copy and paste and existing graphic? Beyond this, I really like the functionality and editing capability of your widget.  Thanks for all of your work. ... View more
