I was curious to see if anyone else was having issues with AGOL-hosted layers and a map this morning.  My utility layer map wasn't working on mobile/ipads starting a few minutes ago, and now the desktop version is being pretty slow.  I was curious if ESRI was doing some server maintenance or something.  Anyway, I'll do a .shp layer re-upload in the meantime to see if that fixes the issue.  (mobile/ipad app versions also seem to be current, so I don't know what else to do). Any help would be much appreciated.  Thanks -Matt ... View more

After setting up a web app, users can see our organization's map.  But I'm not really satisfied with the stock legend, scale, etc. options when you use the service to print.  Is there a way I can edit the layout features of my map so that it's a bit more uniform and pleasing in terms of layout features?  (scale bar in feet vs. miles, inserting the organization's contact info and logo, a more streamlined legend).  Any feedback would be much appreciated.

I just downloaded the ArcGIS for AutoCAD add-on but haven't really played with it yet.  I was curious if other people had experience creating linkages between the two programs.  Is there a way to create a pathway in which people within our organization could edit in one program and then the changes would automatically update in the other? Or is there always going to be several steps involved transferring line-work, etc. from one to the other?  (We use ArcMap v. 10.5.1 & AutoCAD Infrastructure Design suite--using Civil 3D).  Any help/feedback would be appreciated.

I was just curious if it were possible to host a custom WAB Dev app that I created on a free web hosting service (like GitHub).  Our organization currently doesn't have a web-facing server space to host it, and I wanted to try a test-run.  Further, what do the steps involved entail?  Appreciate the feedback/help.

I have created a city utilities map and uploaded it to 'my content' on AGOL.  With the amount of information involved, even with scale visibility parameters associated with certain layers, the map has a tendency to lag when refreshing.  I would like to create group layers for my map (water-associated info, sanitary sewer, storm, rural water, etc) and be able to click the entire group layer on/off if I want.  This would greatly help the load speed of the map and increase usability for those seeking the map.  What is the easiest way to accomplish this?  (Note: I have built a WAB Dev app that enables a toggle on/off switch but our dept. doesn't have an outward facing server, so I can't upload the app yet, so I'm looking for a solution using AGOL-based tools, and I am using ArcMap 10.5.1).  Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated, thank you).  -Matt ...
