Video: How to Use the Document Canvas

One of the ways in which you can combine content created in App Studio is in a document.  A document is a series of pages that contains charts, reports, images, and more.  These can be output in an online format such as HTML or an Analytic Dashboard, or in distributable and printable formats such as PDF or PowerPoint.
In App Studio, you use the Document canvas to create documents and Analytic Dashboards from which you can design reports, coordinate layouts, and distribute layouts that are made up of multiple reports and charts. 

Video: How to Use Vector Basemaps in App Studio

When generating an Esri map in App Studio, you have a choice of basemaps, which are background map images. The map data is superimposed on this image.

Basemaps that are not vector maps are pre-rendered image tiles. Vector basemaps are delivered from ArcGIS Online as vector tiles that are rendered on the client based on a style file that is delivered with the vector tiles.

This provides customization options not available with pre-rendered image tiles.

By default, the Reporting Server hosts and configures geographic boundaries for 58 World Administrative regions. You can use these files to generate Esri maps in App Studio.

However, if you have a second level license, you can map additional more detailed administrative regions down to the postal code level (where available) for approximately 250 countries. This is a paid service from Esri.

Video: How to Use IbComposer Functions to Invoke Map Menu Options

When generating an Esri map in App Studio, by default you get a set of map widgets on the map output.

When you run an Esri map, the default map widgets include a Table of Contents widget, a Selection Tools widget, and a Change Basemap widget.

Instead of using the default widgets, you can add controls to the HTML page and invoke IbComposer functions to perform the following map menu functions:

Video: Creating Labels for Point Layers on Esri Maps

Turning on the Create Labels layer visualization for a point map enables you to specify a field name whose value you want to display for each point symbol. You can style the labels by changing the default font colors, sizes, styles, and angles. You can also specify a halo color in which to embed the labels.

By default, there are no labels displayed for each point.

In this example, the point layer has an image of a bicycle at each start station. We will configure labels to display with each of these points.

Video: How to Use the Esri HTML5 Viewer

Hello, and welcome to this App Studio How-To video. Today we’re going to show you how to highlight areas of interest on your map by assigning each one a unique color.

Add the WebFOCUS request that provides the location dimension in the Requests and Data Sources panel. This request is a table that generates XML output and has a defined field named REGION that will be used to color the polygons.

Video: How to Plot Geometric Lines on an Esri Map

Hello, and welcome to this App Studio video on plotting lines on an Esri map, which allows you to show movement such as routes or transmission lines.

In this example, we are using a CSV file that contains Citibike trip data for the New York area, including bike ID, trip duration, start station points and end station points, and their latitudes and longitudes. But to plot a line on a map, we need geometry lines.

Video: How to Customize Point Clusters on Esri Maps

Turning the Clustering layer visualization on for a point map combines multiple points into one symbol, with default class breaks, colors, and sizes. You can style the clusters by changing the default colors, sizes, and class breaks.

The default clusters are broken into three classes.

1. Class 1 clusters 0 to 10 points using a 20px diameter symbol with blue fill.

2. Class 2 clusters 11 to 200 points using a 35px diameter symbol with green fill.

3. Class 3 clusters more than 200 points using a 60px diameter symbol with red fill.

Video: Interface Differences - Developer Studio to App Studio

App Studio allows you to access more options directly from the main interface by using the ribbon and dynamic panels.
In Developer Studio, you use menus, dialog boxes, toolbars, and windows to create content. The main interface components include the menu bar, the main toolbar, the commands toolbar, and the Explorer window.
The Menu bar contains context-sensitive pull-down menus that become available as you select objects in your workspace or navigate through the product.
The Main toolbar provides quick access to commonly performed functions. These buttons
