Service Settings

You can change the settings for any service in a VertiGIS Studio Web (Web) app. The settings for services are accessible from the Services panel, which appears when you create or open an app.

In Web Designer, you can use Pinpoint Search (CTRL+SHIFT+F) to easily find any service.

App Settings

Events

• Application Initializing: The command to run when the app starts to initialize. A command is an action the app should perform.

  Some commands have additional settings you can configure.

  The Application Initializing command runs before any other event occurs. To view the order in which initialization events occur, see Order of Initialization Events.

  The command (or workflow) must not contain blocking actions, such as alerts or user-facing forms, as these will prevent the layout from loading in Designer.

  To add a command:

  1. In the Components panel, click the Services tab.

  2. Click App.

  3. If necessary, in the App panel, click to expand the Events section.

  4. Under Application Initializing, click +Add Command.

     A window appears that lets you select a command, workflow, or report.

  5. Click one of the following tabs as appropriate:

     • Commands: Select the command you want to run, and click Select.

     • Workflows: Select the workflow you want to run, and click Select. Alternatively, to create a new workflow, click Create a new Workflow. After adding the workflow, you can set its Title and Icon.

     • Reports: Select the report you want to run, and click Select.

  To turn your command into a custom command, click . A code box appears in which you can manually edit the JSON code for the command. Turning your command into a custom command is a one-way operation. While editing the custom command in the code box, press CTRL+Space to access code suggestions. You can specify a sequence of multiple commands.

  To convert commands into a workflow, first click to customize the commands, and then click . Converting commands into a workflow cannot be reversed. This option is not available for on-premises Workflow installations that are not installed in the default installation folder.

  To change the command:

  1. In the Components panel, click the Services tab.

Workflows can, however, start other workflows. For more information about creating workflows, see VertiGIS Studio Workflow.

  The Launch Link Workflow is run after any commands are run via the Application Initializing and Application Initialized events configured in App settings, and before any command is run via the Map Initialized event configured in Map Settings. To view the order in which initialization events occur, see Order of Initialization Events.

  To add a launch link workflow:

  1. In the Components panel, select Launch Link Workflows.

  2. In the Launch Link Workflows panel, click +Add Workflows.

     A list of selectable workflows appears.

  3. Select one or more workflows and click Select.

     The list of workflows is updated.

Measure Settings

• Color: Select a color for the Measure tool.

  To select a color, click the color picker to select a color from the palette, using the sliders to adjust the hue and opacity, or the predefined color swatches at the bottom.

  Alternatively, there are two ways in which you can manually specify a color:

  • Hex (Hexadecimal): Type a hexadecimal value for the color. The first pair of characters represent the amount of red, the second pair the amount of green, and the third pair the amount of blue. Each character must be between 0 and F. You cannot specify the opacity in the hexadecimal value, however, you can use the opacity slider or the Alpha value in the RGBA value. For more information, see Web colors.

  • RGBA (Red, Green, Blue, Alpha): Type an RGBA value for the color, which consists of four numbers. The first three numbers represent the amount of red, green and blue, respectively, and each value must be an integer between 0 and 255. The final number represents the color's opacity and must be an integer between 0 (fully transparent) and 100 (fully opaque).

• Length Units: Determines the unit type for length measurements in the Measure tool. When Auto Scaling is selected, the app automatically determines an appropriate unit. The unit options available depend on the Measurement System selected in Region Settings. The user can override the unit type by selecting Units while using the Measure tool.

• Area Units: Determines the unit type for area measurements in the Measure tool. When Auto Scaling is selected, the app automatically determines an appropriate unit. The unit options available depend on the Measurement System selected in Region Settings. The user can override the unit type by selecting Units while using the Measure tool.

Portal Settings

• Tags: Only display portal items with these specified Esri tags to the end user. This setting controls which layers are offered to the end user in the Add Layer tool, which can be found at the bottom of the Layers tab in the Web GIS - Default template.

  To display all portal items, remove all tags. To remove a tag, click the X beside the tag.

  You can specify multiple tags by separating them with a comma or simply add them one at a time.

Region Settings

By default, these region settings apply to the entire app but can be overridden by certain components. For example, each layer or field may have individual format settings.

• Measurement System: Sets the measurement units of the app to be one of the following:

  • Locale Default: Determines whether to use metric or imperial units of measurement based on your system's region settings.

  • Metric: Sets the app to use metric units of measurement.

  • US Customary: Sets the app to use imperial units of measurement.

• Fallback Language: Sets the default language to use when no translation exists for the currently-selected language.

• Date Format: Sets the date format to apply to your whole app. You can also set individual settings for specific layers and fields by editing the settings of those layers or fields. The actual date format produced is dependent on your operating system and its own region settings. The default is Date Time Short.

• Number Format: Sets the format by which numbers should be represented in your app. These settings affect both the formatting and calculation of numeric feature data associated with the map. You can also apply number formats to specific layers or fields by editing the settings of those layers or fields. For more information on number formats, see Standard Numeric Format Strings. The default option is Fixed Point. Select one of the following formats:

  • Number: A localized representation of a number with a decimal separator, group separator and optional negative sign. For example, in the en-us locale: 12,345.67 or -42.

  • Fixed Point: A localized representation of a number with a decimal separator and optional negative sign. For example, in the en-us locale: 12345.67 or -42.

  • Currency: A localized representation of a monetary amount in a specific currency. For example, in the en-us locale: $123.45 for USD or £123.45 for GBP.

  • Accounting: A localized representation of a monetary amount in a specific currency except negative values are displayed in brackets. For example, in the en-us locale, -$543.21 would be represented as: ($543.21) for USD.

  • Percent: A localized representation of a percentage. For example, in the en-us locale, 0.99 would be represented as: 99%.

  • Custom: Use one or more numeric specifiers to define how to format numeric data. For more information, see Microsoft's Custom Numeric Format Strings.

• Currency: Select the currency you want your app to operate in.

• Decimal Places: Type in the number of digits to appear after the decimal point in fractions. If you do not set a number, the default applied to currency units depends on the currency. By default, this field is blank.

• Time Zone: Select the time zone your app will operate within. The default is Default, which uses the time zone from your system settings.
