Allow user to select method of polygon input in gallery?

I'm making a gallery workflow that includes a search area polygon. While it's nice to draw polygons on the map, it's also nice sometimes to have pre-defined polygons for things like defined city/county/state boundaries.

Is there a way I can do a dropdown of known polygon files OR a map interface?

Hi @StephenMack

Do you have a separate data source containing the other known polygons and their names?

If so you can use this to populate a separate drop down list.

You may need to configure your questions so that you have a set of Radio Buttons.

So the user can chose between:

Map interface
Known Polygon
etc

Then within each Radio Button have the dropdown or interface tool to provide the option required.

Thanks

Oh interesting, I never considered chaining together the gallery inputs. You're saying I should do something like this?

I think that would solve the problem. And it looks like I can choose to collapse the section that isn't currently in use, so it won't be very confusing for others to use. Thanks!
