When you right click on a feature name in the Contents Pane and select View Metadata you generally are not seeing the metadata actually associated with that feature. It would be nice to eliminate the View Metadata and Edit Metadata from the right click in the Contents Pane and force users to reach the View Metadata from the Catalog Pane or directly from the Catalog View. ...

I have a survey with a series of 10 questions, each question has 2 choices. The choices are specific to the question, but are related in a fashion - 1 response is related to group 1 the other related to group 2. I need to tally the number of responses that relate to each group and display the values (i.e., group 1 = 4, group 2 = 6). Any help would be most appreciated. ... View more

I am attempting to create contour lines from a Lidar produced DEM. The tool successfully runs in both ArcMap 10.5.1 and Arc Pro 2.4, but fails to create contours above a certain elevation. The DEM has data in the areas without contour lines, but they fail to generate. This occurs with both 3D Analyst Tools as well as the Spatial Analyst Tools. Any ideas on what is going on? ...

I'm trying to get a script to reset the paths of data sources from an archive path to a current path. However, the script is only changing one of the paths and not all of the paths. Here is my code: import arcpy, os arcpy.AddMessage("\n\n" + "Re-source MXDs was developed by Carl Beyerhelm, modified by Steve Kovach" + "\n") mxdFolder = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0)  ## The project MXD folder oldFolder    = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(1)  ## The archived data folder path newFolder    = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(2)  ## The current data folder path arcpy.env.workspace = mxdFolder mxdList = arcpy.ListFiles("*.mxd")  ## Get a list of the MXDs for mxd in mxdList:  ## For each MXD     arcpy.AddMessage("\n" + "Re-sourcing " + mxd + "...")     mapDoc = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument(os.path.join(mxdFolder, mxd))  ## Get the mapDoc object     mapDoc.findAndReplaceWorkspacePaths(r"oldFolder", r"newFolder", True)  ## Replace the obsolete path with the new path     mapDoc.save()  ## Save the updated MXD     del mapDoc  ## Release the mapDoc object arcpy.AddMessage("\n\n" + "OK, done!" + "\n\n") Any ideas where I'm going wrong? ...
