Point.within(layer)

Question

import arcpy

sr = arcpy.SpatialReference(4326)

Laye = arcpy.mp.LayerFile(r'X:\Polygone.lyr')

lyr = Laye.listLayers("*")[0]

point = arcpy.PointGeometry(arcpy.Point(Var_x1, Var_y1), sr)
 print(point.within(lyr))

I'm doing something wrong.

I'm trying to get a Boolean awser if True or False point is in a .lyr file

Does anyone see what's wrong?

Thx alot

I see what you are talking about, and have run across this same kind of issue with a surprising number of ArcPy functions in Pro.  Specifically, the code runs as expected within ArcGIS Pro itself, e.g,. in the interactive Python window, but it does not run as expected outside of Pro.  Just for kicks, try running the code in Pro itself?

This is the 4th bug like this I have seen in the past 2 weeks.

There is more then 400 000 polygons. I want to see if there is a polygon at a x,y. Then with SelectLayerByLocation_managenent the result is 9 with Getcount_management. But I have to remove those with "croquis1 IS NULL" so Getcount_management return 3.

Why if Getcount_management(lyr) = 3

with arcpy.da.SearchCursor(lyr, 'Ticket_Number') as cursor:
   for row in cursor:
      print(row)

Will print 400 000+ 'Ticket_Number'?

Thx alot☺️

Odd, ArcPy DA cursor should honor the selection set.

A couple questions since I don't have access to the data.  First, how many records are in the data source referenced in the layer file?  Second, where are you making the initial selection so you can then remove items from the selection?
