Additional Information

The correct way to change field order is to use the layer FieldDescription collection. The CIMViewer is a diagnostic tool and is not supported. The correct workflow for changing field order is as follows: "fl" is a feature layer. Assume it has fields in the following order: [0] OBJECTID, OBJECTID [1] FACILITYID, Facility Identifier [2] NAME, Name of Facility [3] OWNER, Owner Name [4] OWNTYPE, Owner Type then: QueuedTask.Run(() => { var fld_desc_change_order = new List(); var fld_descriptions = fl.GetFieldDescriptions(); //put owner and owner type 2nd and 3rd respectively fld_desc_change_order.Add(fld_descriptions[0]);//OBJECTID fld_desc_change_order.Add(fld_descriptions[1]);//Fac ID fld_desc_change_order.Add(fld_descriptions.First(fd => fd.Name == "OWNER")); fld_desc_change_order.Add(fld_descriptions.First(fd => fd.Name == "OWNTYPE")); foreach (var fld in fld_descriptions.Skip(2)) { //add the rest if (fld.Name == "OWNER" || fld.Name == "OWNTYPE") continue;//previously added fld_desc_change_order.Add(fld); } fl.SetFieldDescriptions(fld_desc_change_order); }); will change the field order to: (which will also be reflected in the popup window) [0] OBJECTID, OBJECTID [1] FACILITYID, Facility Identifier [2] OWNER, Owner Name [3] OWNTYPE, Owner Type [4] NAME, Name of Facility This is user error.
