I'm experiencing random glitches with our department's legacy model. Specifically, it's generating errors at points where it previously functioned correctly.  I am using Pro 3.2.2, has there been a recent update I should be aware of? The current workaround involves replacing the malfunctioning tool with a new instance, configuring it identically, reconnecting the inputs and outputs, and then disconnecting the old tool before rerunning the model. The tools that appear to be causing these issues are 'Copy Features', 'Select', 'Dissolve', 'Buffer', 'Spatial Join', and 'Merge'. Does anyone know how to update the model without having to rebuild the tools?  In the below example, I added a new Spatial Join configured it exactly as before, repointed the connections and the model finishes just fine.   ...

I've inherited a model that runs without errors when opened and executed in edit mode. However, when I simply open the model and run it directly, it throws an error. Since it works in edit mode, the usual debugging method of observing what turns red isn't helpful. I'm struggling to pinpoint the source of the error. Is there a way to modify the model, to help me debug the model, and track its flow and narrow down the location of the error? The model itself is huge, and I would rather not have to rebuild it. Based on the limited messages, it appears to be failing in the later third of the model. Any help on how to debug the model would be greatly appreciated.     ... View more

Match previous functionality of Export Features to Feature Class to Feature Class. The Feature Class to Feature Class (deprecated) allowed dynamic Output Name using string variables, which was very useful for adding timestamps and differentiating model runs. This model is run approximately every 3-6 months, and being able to have historic data automatically saved is a key component.   The Export Features GP tool (replacing Feature Class to Feature Class) no longer allows model variables to be used for Output Name. This eliminates the ability to easily add timestamps to exported feature layer names. While I can manually rename the exported layer, this extra step wasn't needed with the Feature Class to Feature Class tool     ... View more
