Search widget

The Search widget enables you to find locations on the scene. Unlike the Search widget in a 2D app, it does not support feature search. By default, the widget uses the geocoding service from your organization or portal. You can also add more geocoding services.

The widget configuration window allows you to specify the geocoding services you want the widget to work with.

1. Hover over the Search widget and click the small eye icon to show or hide this widget in your app.
2. Hover over the widget and click the small edit icon .

   The configuration window for the widget appears.

   The geocoder URL is automatically added to the Geocoder URL text box. You can change the geocoder name in the Geocode Name text box.

6. Optionally type text in the Placeholder Text text box.
