In the GSA I have defined a cell with 2 annotations. To place these 2 annotations, I have adapted the sub "PlacePolygonAndAnnotation" from the example/demo vba. As a result the 2 annotations are placed on the cell, so placed with the same origin. However…
I would like to force the format of a value in the placement and editing dialog in Map. The restriction would be nnn-nn 3 digits a dash then 2 digits. Is this possible? The property type is character because the dash is part of the stored value.
Thanks…
It's important to define your text size properly in the GIS schema to get the desired results on the map. In this article, we'll take a look a the parameters, values and settings to get it right the first time.

COMPARE function allows passing a delimeter string in the last parameter to compare a value against a delimited list of possible values.

For your example # 2: COMPARE("[attributea]","True","") && ([attributeb]>0)
Ensure that attributeb has a value or the expression evaluation will fail. You could accomplish this by specifying a default value in the expression:

Wise forum folks,
One more question for you. XFM Schema appears to have difficulty with interpreting "complex" criteria (e.g., criteria that reference more than one attribute), such as:
([attribute1]>0) && ([attribute2]<100)
Or even better: …
Hello Myzzard,

Hello Myzzard,
In the attached XFM schema file, there is an example of your request. See the Operation property named "Label" for the Parcel. The Label item uses an "editing" initial value of type "concaststr" with value:

Myzzard,
Note that there is a different concatstr example in the WorkId feature defined in geo_example schema. This feature has two properties: Step & Substep each with a property watcher to update the operation property Workid. Using this approach…

Hello Jamo,
Here is a possible workaround for you involviing combobox domainlists with criteria and a SynchItem watcher on the operation property. I assumed that you have a manageable number of tenure types. See the attached example.
