Bring Analyzer to the Export pane

It would be great if the export came with an 'Analyze' button similar to the one described here for sharing layers to the web.

One use case: I learned the hard way that certain blend modes create myriad issues when exporting to both vector PDF and AIX - some layers flattened, entire data frames flattened, entire layouts flattened, entire data frames missing, layout graphics missing...took about a week of troubleshooting with technical support, and I wasn't tipped off to the problem with AIX until this comment. I let technical support know that the blend modes were the culprit, but I can't find documentation for this limitation on AIX or PDF exports anywhere. I've also had layout exports not open in Acrobat at all with no indication from ArcGIS Pro what was wrong.

An Analyze function could handily help users identify problems like this in their layouts and maps and save them hours of troubleshooting.

Hey @wayfaringrob ,

Thank you for posting this Idea! For the specific issue you were encountering with AIX exported from Pro, I found the documentation that Xingdong mentioned in his comment on another thread. It can be found in the 'Map Layers' section of the 'Use .aix files from ArcGIS Pro' documentation.

Thank you,

Amelia

@AmeliaBradshaw Thanks! Hopefully that can be added to the PDF documentation as well.

You're very welcome @wayfaringrob ! Yes, this would be very helpful to have confirmation of this for PDFs too, as you seem to be encountering the same root problem with PDF exports as well.

We added "export warnings" to the export experience, warning users if anything went wrong with drawing or exporting their PDF/AIX etc, in the 3.5 release of ArcGIS Pro.

This includes notifications when a layer will rasterize due to symbology, as the original poster reported.

For more info on Export Warnings in ArcGIS Pro 3.5, see the help at https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/sharing/overview/export-a-map-or-layout.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_F796217224664085BFC33DEA5F75C3F0

Please give it a try, and let us know if you encounter any other unexpected changes to your export that are NOT enumerated on the Export Warnings report.
