<\/a><\/p>\nArcade<\/a> expressions allow you to dynamically create new values using feature attributes, and can be used anywhere you use regular attributes. For example, you can display a value in meters instead of feet, change text color based on conditions, or dynamically construct a link URL using attributes.<\/p>\nInput parameters for Analysis<\/strong> tools<\/strong> are now saved with the result layer.
