Hi @helenchu, So there are other options (in tandem with the option I provided) using one of several methods. You can use the Query Widget to filter one layer by attributes which can then filter the other layer spatially. You can create a relationship between the two layers (so long as they have a common attribute field). When one filter is applied to the main layer, the corresponding layer for which the layer relates to will be shown. You can combine the layers and use the normal filter widget to filter based on specific attributes (using a filter set) and set the parameters  to either filter by the previous or all expressions. Play around with these and see if any of these options to see which ones work for you. ... View more

You can use the Near tool to figure out how close features are to other features. ... View more

You can try using the Aggregate Tool in conjunction with the Feature to Line and Feature to Polygon tools to get an approximation of the area and see whether this gives you the 5% that you are looking for. It might make more sense to create a polygon that consists of all the points and then determine what 5% of that polygon looks like. From there, you can use the aggregate tool to determine the approximate distance for a set of points to get you the 5%. ... View more

Typically when you create a relationship class, you would add both tables/features to the map for publishing. I've done this on multiple occasions. I don't know how your relationship is set up, but depending on how it is setup, you will need to add all of the tables/features that participate in that relationship(s). For instance, I have a sample where I have multiple features relating to a single standalone table. All of the features plus the standalone table are brought into a single map. From the standalone map, I publish everything as is (the relationship will still be honored despite the user not seeing it). So doing this should give you what you need. ... View more

Hi @E_A_Bloomquist, So when it comes to editing vertices, you would be correct. Editing vertices attributes is only for routing and elevation. You won't be able to add attributes to the vertex attributes. ... View more

No, there currently isn't a widget that can do this automatically. But you can use a map-magical method that would make it appear as if your polygons are turning into points. Simply put, you can convert your polygons to points, set the scale for the points to display when the user zooms out and the polygons to not display from the set scale, and then set polygons to display in using the same scale for when the user zooms in and the points to not display. for example: point layer: set to display from 1:25,000 polygon layer: set to display to 1:25,000 This will make it seem like the polygons are turning into points, but they are simply displaying based on how far out or in the user zooms. Hope this helps. ... View more

Yes, there are several ways to convert polygons to points by either using a geoprocessing tool called feature to point, or running a python script that gets the central x,y, or xy coordinates.  Both of these methods can be made to use on the fly.  ... View more

So I've given your circumstance some more consideration and there is an other option. Since you only have a basic license, which limits you but doesn't eliminate all options, you can try adding all of the links that you want filtered by adding them to the feature class to corresponding attribute so you can set up the filter widget to create a subfilter based on that attribute.  ...

I don't think so, but I would have to do some more research on it to find out. ... View more

It would simply be a layer service. If you were to publish those 3 tiffs as basemaps, you could still switch between them but you wouldn't be able to have all of them within the map simultaneously. Both options could work depending on what it is that you need. ... View more

You could add them as separate layers, in which case you could have them turned on and off whenever those images are needed. That way you don't have to create one large TPK and still be able to access them. ... View more

It shouldn't return points or lines if you are using the same geometry. If you are using a line that you drew, then that would be a different situation. In that case you would want to start and edit session and simply split the polygon by the line you created (split polygon by polyline).  So one way you could automate this is to create a separate feature class containing all of the polygons of the specified size(s). From there, you can use the intersect tool have that polygon obtain similar attributes to the ones it intersects with. Afterwards, you can use the dissolve tool to create the polygons based on the common attribute. ... View more

Another method perhaps is using the intersect tool in conjunction with either the merge or dissolve tool. The merge might make the most sense for what you are trying to accomplish. ... View more
