Note: Details about field names and visibility can be found in chapter Layer Properties whereas information about the use of aliases is available in chapter Field Alias.

 

WebOffice 10.2 SP3 takes some of the field properties in the ArcMap document into consideration.

 

Number Format

If you, for example, want to format attribute data display in plot reports plotted with WebOffice plotten then you should specify your desired format in the Fields tab of the ArcMap Layer Properties dialog.

Note: The actual formats for decimal and thousands separators as well as date fields are defined by the Region settings of the OS. WebOffice 10.2 SP3 will display the separators as defined in the Region settings of the ArcGIS Server Account.

Note: Check the configured formats by accessing http://<myserver>:6080/arcgis/rest/services/SynOutputService/MapServer/exts/SynSOEGateway/SynerGIS_SGC_Handler and look for arcgis_identify_date_format, arcgis_identify_decimal_separator or arcgis_identify_thousand_separator.

Note: MXD formats will only be used in WebOffice 10.2 SP3 if the parameter Use MXD Field Formatting is set to "Yes".

 

Domains

WebOffice 10.2 SP3 provides full support for Esri domains for

 

Search form value lists as well as for
Search result display

 

Therefore, we recommend making use of Esri domains wherever possible.

 

Subtypes

WebOffice 10.2 SP3 provides support for Esri subtypes for

 

Search form value lists as well as for
Search result display

 

Therefore we recommend making use of Esri subtypes.
