This page describes specific settings for the Web Map widget. Note that generic widget settings are described on the Widget Generic Settings page, so if you cannot find the setting you are looking for check there too.

Please note that is is currently not possible to add more than about 16 maps to a single report due to a technical limitation.

If the layer your report is based on does not display in the Web Map widget, please check that the layer is switched on in the underlying web map in ArcGIS Online. If the layer is switched off (even if a layer group it might belong to is switched on) it will not display in your report.

Map

Zoom to active feature

Use this toggle to choose whether the map will zoom in to the boundary of the area being reported or not.

Zoom to active feature margin (%)

Type or use the arrow buttons to set a margin for the zoom to active feature.

Zoom to active point margin (m)

Type or use the arrow buttons to set a margin for the zoom to active point.

Zoom to scale 1:

Type or use the arrow buttons to set a zoom to a specific map scale.

Click to navigate

Toggle this setting on if you want the user to navigate to a new resource when a feature in the map widget is clicked.

Navigation link format

The format of the link that should be triggered when the user clicks a feature in the map widget. This setting is only relevant if the Click to Navigate setting is switched on. For example entering ./#FID would use the root URL that the report is running at with the ID of the clicked feature added to the end.

Show popups on click

Choose whether to show map popups when features in the map are clicked.

Tooltips

Use this toggle to choose whether tooltips are shown for features in the map or not.

Tooltip format

Type a format for the tooltip e.g. #FNAME to show the feature name.

Show all features

Use this toggle to choose whether all features are shown in the map or not.

Map layers

Visible layers

Comma delimited list of the IDs of the layers in the web map that you want to be visible in the widget e.g. 0,1

Clip layers to active feature

Apply clipping based on the active feature for the report i.e. the feature that has been selected for the report.

Clip buffer distance (m)

If clipping features, a buffer (in meters) can be applied around the active feature e.g. 250

Clipped layers – excluded style

The style that should be applied to features that are clipped:

Clip – makes them invisible
Fade – visible but faded, normal color retained
Fade-light – a lesser fade, normal color retained
Fade-grey – faded to a light grey

Clipped layers spatial query type

Choose the type of spatial query that should be carried out to determine whether features should be clipped or not.

Show clip buffer

Choose whether the clip buffer around the active feature should be displayed or not.

Clip buffer color

Choose a color for the clip buffer.

Legend & Controls

Show legend

Use this toggle to choose whether to show a  map legend or not.

Legend anchor

Choose the anchor for the legend within the map widget.

Legend size

Choose the size for the legend within the map widget.

Show zoom controls

Use this toggle to choose whether to show controls for the user to zoom in and out of the map.

Show print button

The more advanced Print Button (compared to the Export Snapshot Button – see below) allows the user to print the web map into different file formats, providing a range of options for size and layout.

Please note that the Print Button is not available for 3D maps.

Show export snapshot button

The simple version of exporting a web map widget is by enabling the Export Snapshot Button which will appear at the bottom right of the map. It takes a simple screenshot of the map widget and saves it to your browser’s downloads folder.

Both these export options are mutually exclusive, meaning the Export Snapshot Button will only show if the Print Button setting is toggled off.

North arrow

Choose whether to show a north arrow in the map and if so, how it should look.

North arrow anchor

Choose the anchor for the north arrow within the map widget.

Scale bar

Choose whether to show a scale bar in the map and if so, how it should look.

Scale bar anchor

Choose the anchor for the scale bar within the map widget.

Scale bar units

Choose the units for the scale bar.

Thematics

Enable thematic mapping

To create a thematic map using this setting you will need to select one of the indicators from the Data tab. Please note that it is not possible to create thematic maps using indicators from a CSV data source (however you can easily publish a CSV file as a hosted table within ArcGIS Online and connect the table as a data source to your report).

An alternative and more flexible way of inserting a thematic map into a report is by designing a web map in ArcGIS Online and adding it’s item id into the Web map id setting under Map. The Enable thematic mapping setting should in this scenario be toggled off.
