Yes I have tested and compared tiles using <Antialiasing> as true and false.  Setting it to true definitely enforces some degree of AA.  It may be in the eye of the beholder, but to me it is a significant improvement over no AA at all.  I think it could be better though, hence the point of this thread. ...

Hmm 40 hours VS. 4 minutes 30 seconds... so you're saying it's a little faster when done on your workstation? Unfortunately I didn't find any solution to this.  I just accepted that some anti-aliasing is better than no anti-aliasing. ... View more

Thank you for the comments, George.  Being pretty much an accidental DBA, this kind of insight is really helpful.  I have definitely been through many of the threads on this subject over the years, my goal was to get a more current take on the issue. I have a contour/topography layer in my map service that exhibits the most obvious difference between sdebinary and geography.  With over 800k rows of vertex-heavy features, with sdebinary it has very acceptable performance and with geography it can be unusable depending on the extent. ...

Thanks Robert I like this mod.  Something I've thought about a few times. ... View more

Good, I'm glad you got it working. By the way, if you do want to have your map tip layer be "invisible" you can do that, it's just that I had trouble getting map tips to work unless I set it up a certain way.  That's why I mentioned it earlier.  My parcels layer is setup with a black outline in my map service.  When I added the layer by itself into my web map for using it as a map tips layer, I edited the layer's drawing style.  I chose a color for the outline, rather than setting it to "no color", then cranked the transparency of the outline symbol up to 100%. ...

Mike, I was able to create a test app using your web map & data, and got the map tips working.  So if you're still having problems, we might be able to figure it out. ... View more

The layer name as it is configured in your web map is "ParkLocations - Locations", so that is what it needs to be in the Anvil Map Tips config.  Hopefully that takes care of it! ... View more

Hmm...  your map tips layer, "Locations", did you happen to configure it with a null color for the symbols?  So the layer is transparent?  I did this when I was originally trying to get this widget working and it messed me up.  Also, the tips won't display if there's a popup on the screen. ...

Mike, So you copied the AnvilMapTips folder into your app's widgets folder?  And it looks like you added the reference to the widget in the correct place in the main config.json.  I think the widget's "version": "2.3" should be "version": "1.1.0" unless you actually changed the version number to 2.3 in the widget's manifest.json. Now, when you go to configure your app, does Anvil Map Tips show up in your on screen widget list like this? If it's there, then you want to click to configure the widget, make sure everything looks good in the configuration, then click OK.  If you do this, then it should create a config file for AnvilMapTips in your app's /configs folder.  And it should add a reference to the widget's config file in your main config.json.  Mine looks like this: { "uri": "widgets/AnvilMapTips/Widget", "position": { "left": -1000, "bottom": -1000, "relativeTo": "map" }, "version": "1.1.0", "id": "widgets_AnvilMapTips_Widget_101", "positionRelativeTo": "map", "name": "AnvilMapTips", "label": "Anvil Map Tips", "icon": "widgets/AnvilMapTips/images/icon.png?wab_dv=2.1", "config": "configs/AnvilMapTips/config_Anvil Map Tips.json" }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ...

Aha!  Thank you so much Tom!!  It took me long enough to figure out how to get it to work in the Web Appbuilder code, but it's perfect!  I would not have been able to figure it out without your sample, really, thank you! ... View more
