I just installed ArcGIs explorer 2012 Betá on one of my computers, which had an ArcGIS explorer 1750 installation.

We are not using ArcGIS Explorer yet, because of the limitations\configuration of our proxy server (according to the local ESRI branch). ArcGIS explorer crashes when accessing online data.

I was hoping this problem might be solved in the 2012 version, however when initiating the new version after showing the initial screen ArcGIS explorer crashes withou any message.

Cheers,
Bart

Can you share crash dump?

Esri is phasing out the complimentary use of Bing Maps in its ArcGIS products. The final version of ArcGIS Explorer 2012 as well as other Esri products will be "Bing Ready", which will allow you to input a Bing Maps key that you obtain directly from Microsoft. After you input the key you will be able to use Bing maps as you did previously.

Mark

No Bing Maps in its ArcGIS? Sounds like a bad mistake, unless then plan to replace it with Google Maps.

I have 2 issues to report

1) Test result : ArcGIS explorer crashes as soon as I change locators under Manage locators

Steps

Open ArcGIS explorer from Start > programs
click on ArcGIS explorer button
Now Select ArcGIS explorer options
Select resources
click on locators button
Now I have added my custom locator file. Click on Add
The file that I have added is displayed in the list of locator files
Now when I select the new locator and click on activate arcexplorer crashes

2) Test Results: Validate services does not recognize geocoding and network service

Steps

Goto Start>programs> ArcGIS explorer> Application configuration manager
Click on Modify
Select custom resources
On the right panel scroll downa dn select Choose services under custom services
I specified our internally created geocoding and routing service in URL
When I click validate services I see a red mark

Even though these services are available somehow arcGIS explorer is not validating it. How do i configure any webservices that are develop by our organization?

MarkBockenhauer

As mentioned before, I can see my ArcGIS Online maps that I have created; however, I cannot see any of my data when opening them. Most of my maps are a feature service right now. Does ArcGIS Explorer handle feature services yet?

Thank you,
Jarom

ArcGIS Explorer 2012 and prior will not support feature services. Feature services will be supported in the 2013 releases.

Hello:

Is there an estimate for a release date (week, month, season...) for ArcGIS Explorer Desktop 2012 final?

Will there be another beta release? I cannot find any way to get "About..." info in the UI, to get the build number. I'm probably missing it. The executable I have says 2.0.0.1995. Is there a more recent beta?

And, for a follow up, is there any official or semi-official statement about this product's future development, in light of the upcoming (at some point) release of the ArcGIS "Viewer" for Windows?

Thanks,

Harry

We have beem implementing some User Conference bug fix and enhancement requests that have caused us to miss our intended August release window. We have also been looking ArcGIS 10.1 service pack 1 work and moving applicable enhancements into ArcGIS Explorer as well. One of the significant items is support for Publick Key Infrastructure. That work is still on-going and a few weeks from being complete.

We are not planning another beta release. The next release will be the official ArcGIS Explorer 2012 release.

The ArcGIS Viewer for windows is a Multi-screen (window) dashboard mapping application. It is a compliment to the ArcGIS system, not a replacement for ArcGIS Explorer.

Longer term ArcGIS Explorer continues to be developed. Post ArcGIS Explorer 2012 we will be working to address issues with map display and performance by using a new 2D and 3D display architecture. The first of many releases on the new display will be in 2013.

I have an inquiry regarding the add GIS service on ArcGIS Explorer. How do I connect my citrix server database to be utilized in ArcGIS Explorer? I have tried using this URL (http://citrix/Citrix/XenApp/site/default.aspx?NFuse_CurrentFolder=%5cDesktop%20GIS), but it fails to connect. I pray to the GIS gods that I can eventually link the server to this awesome piece of software.

Hans,

ArcGIS Explorer connects to ArcGIS, ArcIMS, WMS and GeoRss services. I am not sure what you are referring to in regards to "citrix server database"

ArcGIS Explorer can be run within a citrix environment, but I am not familiar with connecting to a citrix server.

Hi,

Is there an estimate for a release date (week, month, season...) for ArcGIS Explorer Desktop 2012 final?

When do you expect public release?

Same here!

The last announcement was for an August release but it's now September... Any chance of a new announcement?

AllenJakobitz

We are in a shared server environment. Can we install one copy of 2012 on the server and then have multiple users access through their desktop?

When do you expect public release?

AndreiIvanov

Harry, thanks for bringing up this issue. We will fix it in the upcoming release.

I tried to open the attribute table on one of my file gdb feature classes. It has 7 million records and a bunch of fields (mostly Y, N). ArcGIS Explorer became unresponsive and I noticed that memory usage hit 3 GB and then the application crashed.

Was the software trying to load in all the features?

See this thread. It's old, but still applies.

I have had quite a few people tell me that they run ArcGIS Explorer with aero using the setting:
<E3Settings DisableAeroDWM="false"
mentioned in the forum post, and it doesn't cause them problems. We are not going to change the default behavior though, for 2012, as there are quite a few ArcGIS Explorer users on older hardware (graphics cards / drivers) where it is problematic.

Starting ArcGIS Explorer beta 2012 2.0.0.1995, Windows 7 (SP1) flashes black and alerts with "The color scheme has been changed to Windows Basic ..... Windows will automatically change the theme back to Aero"
Why?

Hello

We are currently testing ArcGIS Explorer Desktop Beta Build 2035 and just want to let you know that geosearch capability isn't working. We have no problem using a new service, http://geocode.arcgis.com and geosearch in ArcGIS Desktop 10 but it does not seem to be working in the current version of ArcGIS Explorer Desktop Beta. Are you planning to fix it by next upcoming release?

Thanks,

Sach

The ArcGIS Explorer 2012 final release will work with the http://geocode.arcgis.com service.

MarkBockenhauer

Are there any plan to support ArcGIS explorer on mac o/s?

Stefan

ArcGIS Explorer 2012 is only supported on windows, but in the future there will be versions of ArcGIS Explorer and ArcGIS Explorer like applications that run on the Apple platform.

MarkBockenhauer

I recently installed the Beta 2012 version and for some reason cannot access my groups and my maps from ArcGIS online. Was this feature taken out? In the 1750 version, there was an option under the ArcGIS Explorer button where you could click on ArcGIS online and view that information.

Thank you!

ArcGIS Explorer beta is not doing the filehandling correctly for .gcpk files form ArcGIS online. From the Website you can download the .gcpk file to your local disk and add it through the ArcGIS Explorer options.

File Menu
ArcGIS Explorer options button
Resources
Manage Locators - Locators button
and add Locator.

-mark

Thanks Mark - that works fine and now allows me to add the Locator. I does however give me some unusual results:
- when it finds a location it adds the pin in the correct place but flies somewhere else (nb our 2d projection and that of the locator are not web Mercator)
- it does not find anything unless I provide all of the fields (unlike desktop)

Hi there,

I don't seem to be able to add Locator Packages to AGX from AGO. Whenever I search for type:locator and then click on the results (either for my own or the US Postal one) I get the following error:

Failed to add file(s):
-c:\users\sxc\AppData\Local\Temp\E3\_esri_search_temp6932\isxbnqx0.pkinfo (Invalid File).

Also is there any way to add the locator directly (without having to first upload to AGO).

Cheers,

Scott.

Should the 1750 Data Access Extension work with the beta?

The 1750 data expansion pack will not work with ArcGIS Explorer 2012 beta.

Mark

MarkBockenhauer

I noticed that in the Beta install directory there are now arcpy and Python directories. What are those used for?

They are used for ArcGIS Layers (layer files .lyr and Layer Packages .lpk) that make use of python scripting in the layer properties. ex. label expressions, 3D extrusion, etc...

Is this a couple more bugs?
1 The vertical exaggeration setting does not work. In fact the vertical scale is so small that the 3D option is virtually useless. It used to work on the previous version of Explorer.

2 When I removed the My Default Map.nmf file and added only a single Map layer the start-up time went from 27 secs down to 8 secs. That was very impressive.
a. As I added more layers it got slower. Then I added 40 GPX files. That made it VERY slow.
b. With around 40 GPX files turned on the performance on pan and zoom is VERY slow. Almost unusable.

Is there a way to improve this performance?

Thanks

Barry
