I made the changes to the code (shown below), but the unwanted options still remain in the drop down menu.  However, I think you are correct.  I bet the problem is how the function callbacks are named.  WAB uses letters for variable naming conventions instead of actual names; which makes it confusing.  I'm going to go through the code and make sure that where you use obj, result, defs etc., matches the hard-to-follow lettering convention that WAB uses. ...

Hello Robert.  Thank you for your reply.  And yes, I am aware of the setting to allow\not allow exports in WAB.  However, even if I deselect this setting, there is still an option for creating a layer; which I would like to remove (shown below).  And I would like to retain the ability to export to csv.  I'm assuming that this menu is coming from an api and cannot be configured?  But I'm not sure to be honest.  I found some documentation in the dojo/dijit tutorials, but not how to configure this.  Any ideas on where I could research this?  Again, thank you for replying.  Any information helps. ...

Thank you Tim for the reply.  It's much appreciated. I absolutely understand everything that you discussed.  This is how I'm entering the COGO.  When I first receive the legal description, instead of using Parcel Editor first, I go just Editor by itself.  Here, I use the Traverse Window to enter my COGO.  I do this because here we use Workflow Manager to create a new job (i.e. a Version) to do editing.  If something is not right with the legal description, or a number of other possible issues, it's a process to delete the job from Workflow Manager.  So I begin by using Editor by itself first.  Unfortunately, in Editor, as far as I know, there is no way to designate a line as an origin connection.  So I just enter the COGO and then save my edits if everything looks good.  At this point, I create a job through Workflow Manager and it opens another mxd where now I am able to work within the Parcel Fabric.  I then drag and drop the feature class into this mxd.  I do exactly as the online help describes to do by using the Edit Tool in Editor to copy and paste the COGO lines into the Parcel Editor Grid.  This is exactly when the reorder happens.  Now, it doesn't happen every time.  There are some times when point number one starts where it should; normally at the GDAC section corner or quarter corner where I begin the traverse.  But many times it turns out just like the example that I gave. Some of my coworkers brought this issue up with ESRI.  They said that ESRI is not really sure why this is happening.  And to this day, nobody is really sure what exactly there is that can be done.  Some coworkers start deleting rows and adding rows and recalculating get it fixed.  I just delete the whole thing and then I start over, reentering the lines into Parcel Editor.  My first point being the "Point of commencement" from the legal description. Anyway, I hope I'm making sense, and if you or anyone you know has any more information about this, I would be happy to hear it.  Thank you again for your reply. ... View more

Thank you so much Shaun!  I understand now.  I spent a long time trying to find that info.  Thanks again.  And cheers to you. 🙂 ... View more

Rick, thank you for getting back to me.  Unfortunately, all of my digital AsBuilts exceed the MB limit to post here.  I was able to talk to an Engineer about my question.  He said to look for anything that says "tapping sleeve", "remove stub" or things like that.  In the past I've always looked for something that said "Point of Connection".  But apparently that's not always the case. If you have anymore pointers, I'm all ears.  Thanks again for the reply. Chad ... View more
