@@thekalabashmosaics Hi. I am new to all of this but your video provided great guidance. When I type the syntax, I replaced the !Path! with the hyperlink to where my photos are stored. I replace the !Name! with the attribute field name. I am getting errors and not sure what to do next. Any help would be great.
I've done this before and works just fine. But when I share a project, the other user have to use the same file path in order to view the photos in the popup, is there a way to set a relative folder to allow anoter user to copy the project and images (preserving the folder project structure) but using his own path (storing the project wherever he wants)?
This is Great, an aspect that has been troubling me in Web maps... Does the same syntax work to configure similar attributed for interactive web maps. and will shutting down the PC containing the file directories for the attributes configured affect their use by other users on the consumer end?
Thank you Sir! That's a great question - I will be covering the same issue now on Online/Web Maps. This one works only locally (in your ArcGIS pro software) since the paths are referenced locally in your machine. However, if you have links of your PDFs hosted online or on the cloud, the same workflow (with a few tweaks) will still be applicable. Let me know if you have a question. I appreciate that you learned something from this one.
Great video! Any idea why after this process is completed the link doesnt do anything when I click it. It is blue and seems to be clickable but doesnot go anywhere
I appreciate it. Have you followed the syntax to construct the path link to the resource that you need to access? To access a document, image, or item which is resting on the cloud or locally in your machine, you'd follow the approach as discussed in the tutorial. You need to ensure that you have a field attribute that carries the URLs of the items that are hosted online or on your machine. Using that field(s), use the syntax as in 4:53 (""+ !Name! + "") and replace with your field names for !Path! and !Name! Good luck!
Hi how can i link a hyperlink to a specific web document based on a field. For example i have a field called document number and based on that number i want the url to get me to the document
Hello, sure - to access a document, image, or item which is resting on the cloud, you'd follow the same approach as discussed in the tutorial. You need to ensure that you have a field attribute that carries your URLs of the items that are hosted online. Using that field(s), use the same syntax as in 4:53 (""+ !Name! + "") and replace with your field names for !Path! and !Name!. Makes sense?
Do you mean adding them all in the attribute table? If yes, I assumed to have all the files under one folder in your machine, and then, if you don't have the field already, create one (of text type), and use the Calculate Field Tool to populate the new field using the path to your files. You'd be able to populate the path for all the fields using the method. This is the easiest of the methods. Does it make sense to you? Let me know!
