I have a question about creating a new hosted feature layer from and old one, "cloning" it, essentially via the create item dialog.
It works, it's great, but I don't get exactly why it names things and has a subsidiary item in it that is the old name?
1. I go to "new item" select "feature layer".
2. select "select an existing feature layer"
3. select "old layer"
4. go thru the options, get to the "new item" dialog where you name it and save it.
5. success!
But if you open the "new layer" made from "old layer", it holds a layer item named "old layer" of type "point layer" still? why? why is the old name kept? what is best practice at this point? I usually rename it to "new layer" to avoid later confusion.
Why does this sub-item exist? Why doesn't it get named appropriately automatically? What is best practice for doing this workflow?
