I'm using WebApp Builder Developer Edition to "upgrade" our current property viewer site, using my own server to publish web services and AGOL to publish the map that the app consumes. I know that I can track overall hits on a map in AGOL, but I'm wondering if there is a way to monitor individual widget usage. In other words, I'd want a report that looked like this: Daily summary App access -- 100 hits Search widget -- 99 hits Legend widget - 10 hits Select widget - 87 hits Draw widget - 12 hits Basemap widget - 42 hits Basically, I'm wondering if anyone using Developer Edition has a good method in place for tracking widget usage?

Owen, thank you so much for both suggestions! I didn't know that the option existed to select a subset of layers from a single map to display. It took me about an hour to migrate everything into one map, which was worth the effort because I have far fewer maps to maintain. Even better, the sudden zoom/pan issue is gone now that I'm using one map. A win-win. I agree with your suggestion to add context to the map, but I am limited at the moment because all of my web services are projected in state plane. In the near future, I intend to reproject everything to Web Mercator and use the AGOL standard caching extents so that we can take full advantage of the resources available. The days of the floating county motif are numbered! Again, thank you for for your feedback! It was very helpful.

I have a tabbed map series story map set up to show various districts with elected officials in our county. It has 8 tabs, and the tabs each point to a different ArcGIS online map, all of which have the same default extent set up in its settings. I've also added in that default extent to the story map application settings. The extent of the map for tabs 2-8 inherit from the first tab. Here's my issue: when you click on any of the last three tabs (Kansas Senate, US House, Township), the map appears to quickly zoom out, zoom in, and pan from west to east. It only happens the first time that you click the tab. Every subsequent time, the scale stays the same. The sudden zoom-pan behavior is disorienting and unnecessary. Has anyone experienced this issue? Any suggestions on what I could do to stop it?

The June 2016 release got closer to this, but I agree that there are still enhancements needed. Right now, I have a polygon feature class that has a many-to-one relationship with a table. I really need to be able to show the records in the related table in our pop-ups, but that appears to be the only relationship that is not currently supported.

Just wanted to add my experience with this code snippet from Kelly. We are using the Map Tools template for our county property viewer and the orange highlight has been on my hit list for a while now. Since we are hosting the app template on our server, I was able to take this bit of code and paste it into the main.css file to overwrite the orange box. I put it in directly below the other two style blocks that reference #mapDiv and it worked like a charm. Thanks, Kelly!

Can you elaborate on creating replicas with an SDE schema? I'm wondering if there are any special considerations for which logins to use when creating replicas. For example, do you have to use the same level of permissions for both parent and child? I ask because I'm having an issue with a two-way replica. The child's edits come back to the parent every time without fail, but edits made on the parent do not transfer to the child. I looked at the A and D tables for the feature classes affected, and the records seem to get orphaned in those tables instead of transferring. I'm to the point now where I'm rebuilding the replica once a week, which suggests to me that I'm making a mistake in the setup.

According to Esri tech support, the statistics and indexes do not replicate, so it is a good practice to analyze, compress, and rebuild indexes. Doing so will improve database performance. The frequency for doing these steps depends entirely on how many edits are being made on the data. Just like any database, those with large quantities of transactions will need more frequent maintenance than those that see infrequent updates. As far as I can tell, there is no magic formula for determining an ideal maintenance schedule based on the number of transactions. Really, the only disadvantage to frequent maintenance is the time investment (assuming you don't have a script scheduled to do it when you're out of the office) and any impacts that come from taking the database offline to get a good compress. Thanks, Tina M. at Esri Support Services for answering this question over the phone for me!

Don Kuehne and Edvin Eriksson: The date field seems to have caused issues for me as well. I have a two-way replica that is no longer syncing changes properly. The common thread is with our DATE_MODIFIED field, which is a date field that allows NULL values. Any record that does not have time included in data fails to synchronize. The editor on the child side is using Attribute Assistant, so any edits that he makes are automatically stamped with a date and time. On the parent side, we have been manually typing in a date in mm/dd/yyyy format and not field calcing the system date/time. All of the records edited using the manual entry method are failing to sync. I field calced a few of those records with system date/time, but those records still failed to synchronize the changes. Also, we deleted a feature on the parent side and it is not deleting on the child side upon synchronization. Our system details: Window Server 2008 R2 Enterprise 64-bit ArcGIS 10.3.1 SQL Server 2012

We have a one-way child replica of our master SDE database for our non-GIS staff to reference without being able to change the data. I run maintenance nightly on the parent database (compress, analyze, rebuild indexes), but I'm wondering if I need to do the same thing on the one-way child database? Since no one can edit on that child database, I'm wondering if the statistics and indexes just replicate over from the parent. I haven't noticed any performance issues on the child replica, though I do have a nightly compress scheduled on it. I'm asking this as a "what's the best practice?" question. Thanks in advance for feedback!

Thank you, Marco, for this information. I think you're right. How disappointing that we won't be able to use a view to publish our parcels! I have a Python routine that does a join based on attributes, but the current process takes 23 minutes to complete. I can certainly streamline it (and plan to do so now!) but the near instantaneous results of a SQL view were ideal. Ugh.

Operating System: Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Software: ArcGIS 10.3.1 with SQL Server 2012 I am updating our method for merging parcel boundaries from our SDE database with data copied from the appraiser's database. Rather than a join/export process, I've set up a SQL view that joins the parcel data to a table with a copy of the appraiser's data. The join works, but the resulting feature class is converting true curves to straight lines. Here's a screenshot to illustrate what I'm seeing. The tan polygon is the original parcel feature class and the heavier black line shows the geometry of the same parcel in the SQL view: Why would the SQL view convert the true curve to a series of straight lines?
