It was actually a Blog post today - that is why I remembered. ArcGIS QuickCapture 1.1 is now available across all supported platforms.  Not sure why they made a separate app - Hopefully they will roll some of this into 123 and start working on the speed of data entry. ... View more

Rereading your post maybe you actually want a lookup?  So if they pick A,B,C then return 1, if they pick A,B,E return a 2, etc? If so then you can use pulldata for that. Not sure where you are going with this OB=${OB}  but you cannot calc a field from itself. ... View more

We did find that Circle 2 takes 6 times longer to draw than Circle 1 for instance.  Prob because of the outline.  Using ESRI_Optimized seems to make no difference. I know I saw this before so hopefully someone has it. thanks ... View more

The issue for me is while our security settings let me install Connect it will not let me uninstall it. I just have to give it a new directory to install into each time.   For me the bigger issue has been that the My Survey Designs folder goes to a place that IT does not back up (or any other IT).  And I cannot change it.  Already lost all my work once due to a harddrive crash.  This one has always confused me as to why it would be built like that. ...

Survey123 data goes into a Feature Service.  Just add that Feature Service to your map/WebApp. ... View more

Use calculation column instead.  Works just like default since the user can still overwrite it.  Default only loads when the form loads - so after your values change - which it is too late. ... View more

Look at what else is open when it happens.  Also look at tablet free space.  Tablets co mingle the memory.  When the crashes happen in a row have you tried a close all on the apps open?  Have you tried close all then rebooted?   ... View more

I have been able to change the size ok without a new form. ... View more

I use the hidden type for this.  Then I usually add a if(otherfield <> ''; calc, '').  So basically you build the relevant check into the calculation.  If the "relevant" field is blank do nothing, but if it has data then do the calc.  Note for numbers use string-length=0 to check for a blank. Also watch out for the old bug of defaults.  A field with a relevant will be blank - unless it has a default then it will load the default even if it is hidden. ... View more

My lists are around 5,000.  Using external_choices is key.   One item that can get you is relevant.  I have a form what loads this 5,000 item list 12 times per repeat!  On Android it takes 2-4 seconds to load a repeat.  iOS it is instant.  What breaks is if I try to hide all 12 of these fields behind a relevant iOS will crash the app.  Android will start randomly losing field calcs.  This is esp true the more apps that are open on the tablet.  So in the end I had to unhide 4 of the fields to get it to stop crashing. The new 3.5 64 bit Android version does seem to make all of this better (both speed and memory management).  The bummer for us is the rugged Samsung Active 2s we bought are still running 32 bit Android even though it is a 64 bit chip. This all became a bigger issue when I tried to use repeat_count.  I set it to 50 it seems to preload all 50 x 12 lists each = crash.  Had to take the repeat_count back out. Hope this helps. ...

Thanks.  It turned out to be that the map was zoomed into a point that just happened to have no PhotoLink.  So it was returning a blank set - but not for the reason I thought.  I have had issues with FeatureSet vs RecordSet before where RecordSet was not working so I just thought it was the same issue.  (see this post https://community.esri.com/thread/213089-using-a-agol-hfs-in-python-directly ) Seems to work now. Thanks ... View more

I should also note we are only doing this because the relationship/PhotoLink works randomly sometimes and not others.  Sometimes it auto changes to a link and then we republish and it is gone.  Cannot find the pattern yet. thanks ... View more

The real bummer is Domains are never updated after the first publish.  So when we add say a user to our drop down list they never make it into the Domain. Then if you use Pro to edit it will say the value is invalid (since no matching domain record). I really hope that one gets fixed. ... View more

You need to make a second calculate field and then use a if(field=yes,1,0).  Then make sure to set the bind::type column to int. Then your final one would be field1count + field2count + ... Yep its is a pain if you have lots of fields. ... View more
