Hi,

After testing this great application for a long time, here are some suggestions for improvement.

  • It would be awesome to have a "Save" button somewhere. As far as I know, the only way to save the workspace is to close the application, and we lose our work when the application or computer crashes.
  • It would also be cool to have the status of the nodes in the layer list saved in the json file (checked / unchecked / expanded / collapsed) and restored at next load.
  • Would it be possible to have a prompt (optional) before removing a node in the layer list
  • When we edit polygons, we can move angles but there is no way to split a segment .
  • When drawing polygons, it would be great to have more color choices and mostly previously chosen colors in the workspace
  • When we add a service (WMS), there are often child nodes automatically generated, but these nodes and their status (checked/unchecked, expanded/collapsed) are not saved in the json file. It would be awesome to have this feature.

Kind regards,

Serge

Hi Serge,

Thanks for your suggestions. Some of them are on our planning list and we will include the others.

For ''save the workspace'', you also can export the current workspace to another folder to save them.

Best,

Xuewen

Hi, please refer to Share your work—ArcGIS Earth | ArcGIS on how to share and export your current workspace. Click 'Settings' button from the toolbar, then you can edit the workspace directory in the 'General' tab. Thanks!
