Hi Grant, That is a smart idea. Is it possible to use an .svg file for the icons in the first place and override them with CSS? Thanks for the idea!

I was wondering if someone had tried modifying an app built off of the Jewelry Box Theme so that the map is centered properly. It centers at the web map extent as configured, but it does it before the dockable panel has loaded and opened up. Afterwards, it pushes the map to the right and it's not centered properly. I am thinking I need to recenter the map again after the dockable panel or theme finishes loading.

What I find weird about this CSS is that when I add it and reload the app in WAB, the reload time goes from very fast to slow.

Yes, it worked in Firefox for me, but I do need IE support. At the least, it makes it easier for me to see the icons while I am developing my custom theme. I don't like my current solution, but it will be to switch out the widget icons once I build the app using the custom theme. I don't like how the theme requires widget modifications to work, but that's the look and feel I want. I tried using a background color with the secondary color in my color scheme, but it looked weird. Thanks, Robert.

What is the best way to change the color of the widget icons in Web AppBuilder? I am creating a custom theme based off of the Jewelry Box Theme and my header is mostly white. So, the white icons aren't visible no matter what the opacity is. I want to find a way to make this work through the theme with CSS or JavaScript.

I am getting started on Web AppBuilder Developer Edition and I know I will be building multiple apps with custom themes and widgets for Dev, Test, and Prod. I can imagine that over time I may want to download a newer version of Web AppBuilder. When I create custom widgets and themes, I am not sure if they will go in a common folder for all apps or in the folder for a specific app. I am starting to learn the differences between a portal-based app and a Developer Edition app. Given the fact that the Developer Edition is just a folder containing a Node web server and web app, I realized I could make a separate copy for each app for each environment and I thought that might make sense to decouple everything. However, it seems like possible overkill. Furthermore, I am wondering about source control and whether or not I will be making changes in just the app folder or in the rest of WAB folders as well. So, I wanted to know how other people set up their WAB environment. On the other side of the equation is just one WAB instance, but I do see how that might get me rev-locked down the road on one version of WAB. A third alternative would be separate WAB instances for each version of WAB. I just want to set things up right now based on others experience, versus reorganize things later. Also, do people run it as a service or just start it up on demand? Thanks for anyone's opinions. Nathan

Yes, I need a way to edit 1-150 related records easily. If you could edit in the Attribute Table widget, that would solve my problem.

At the present time, when you activate an ArcGIS Developer Professional subscription, can you use the same account you used to activate the subscription as the admin account for the Dev and Test organization, or do you need a second account for the organization administrator? Thanks, Nathan

Yes, it has been a little while since I worked on this issue. I do remember that the main issue was the equals signs in the URLs. I suspect they are identifying URL parameters as a potential security threat. I believe that I also escaped the equals signs and that fixed the issue. In the end, for other reasons, I decided to go with using the ArcGIS REST API to republish the service the same way ArcMap does. It might have been because of unsupported HTML tags. Underneath it all, the ArcGIS API for Python uses the ArcGIS REST API, so knowledge like this applies no matter how you use it. I just wish I could have found the restrictions in the documentation somewhere.

Hi Andrea, The application has three main components, a web map item with a point feature layer, a web app item that includes the tab definitions, and the builder/viewer application. The process I described above requires changes to all three, which requires you to download the source code and modify it. The changes to the code are pretty simple and Esri has good instructions on how to download the source code and deploy it. I think you can also add the color_id to the feature layer multiple ways. You could use the ArcGIS Online Assistant to edit the feature collection created by the Shortlist Builder in the web map. You could start with a feature service with that field as your data source for the point features. Finally, you probably could build the data in Excel and add it to the web map. That should make a feature collection in the map. I would probably recommend going with the feature service approach. That option wasn't available when I started my app. Nathan

When Web App Builder launches with the Jewelry Box theme with the widget panel open on the left hand side, the map is created and zooms to the web app extent before the widget panel opens up. Once it opens up, the map shifts to the right and is no longer zoomed to the intended extent. It would be better if the final extent upon loading matches the desired extent.

Yesterday, I had a webmap layer that was zoomed out and the features were small. I did not want popups in that situation, but I did want the layer to be visible from the initial zoomed out state of our web application. I would have liked to have a scale range where the popup would work on a given layer. This would be a subset of the layer visibility range. I don't need different popups at different scales. I would just prefer not to have to duplicate layers to achieve the proper effect. It's like scale dependent symbology in ArcGIS Pro. It could be done with duplicate versions of layers in ArcMap, but it wasn't clean.

Just now, I did see some issues on the pictures on the detail slides. Sometimes the pictures would show up partially in rectangular patches of different sizes. Clicking back and forth through the slides caused them to refresh and then finally show up, but the pictures do sometimes load funny. I hope that helps.

Hi Cindy, Looks good! For your information, the points on the first two tabs after number 1 don't have the same color as the tab. Points numbered 1 are fine. Otherwise, you can add support layers to your web map underneath the Shortlist layer and they will show up in the map. That way you could add the city limits, for example. Furthermore, you can use whatever basemaps suit your style. You might want to use the imagery layer with reference data like street names. Next, if you want to, you can put the All tab on the left by reordering the tabs in the Shortlist Builder and editing the tab_id and color_id values in the data. These are all more ideas for you to have at your disposal. It's exciting to see your work! You have a lot of carved wood sculptures. Nathan
