Layer Properties Freeze ArcGIS Pro

allenjm

Hi, I am using ArcGIS Pro 3.1.2 and whenever I right click on a layer in the Table of Contents to get properties like Def Query, info, etc, it locks up Pro and doesn't display any of the properties.  The only way out is to press ESC.  Has anyone ever seen anything like this?  A side note:  This is my third computer to have this happen, so it makes me wonder if my ArcGIS profile has something that causes this.  

 

Thank you all in Advance,

Justin

Hello @allenjm , it sounds to me like the Layer Properties form is opening, but you can't see it. Perhaps it is hidden behind something else, or right at the edge of your screen, or on a second screen, or somewhere your PC used to have a screen ? Try changing your PC's Screen Resolution to the minimum, then the maximum, and see if the form appears.

Normal behaviour is to right-click on a Layer and select Properties, and at this point the Layer Properties form appears. If you ignore that form, then the rest of ArcGIS Pro does indeed act as if it is "locked up". Pressing ESC, is the same as pressing Cancel, and the form disappears and ArcGIS Pro operates freely again.
