We came to the impression that it might take some time to fix this rendering issue. Therefore, we tried alternative approaches. We gained the best results by additionally creating vector tiles ("VTPK") and use them as the basemap instead of rendering the features from the MMPK on the fly. Using this approach the rendering is smooth and looks even better. The drawback is that the MMPK has increased from 2 MB to 6 MB because of the additional vector tiles. But this shouldn't be an issue anymore in 2025. Nevertheless, Preeti, thank you very much for your support! ... View more

Hello Preeti, thanks for your response.  I forgot to mention that we are in the process of migrating our application from Xamarin with Runtime 100 to MAUI with Runtime 200. With Runtime 100 we did not see the described behavior. When zooming, a part of the missing map does load, but it seems that due to the rotation, not enough of the map is preloaded or rendered properly. It appears that the extent calculation might not be accounting for the rotated view correctly, leading to missing areas during auto-panning. When the map is panned manually, you can see it loading even when panning slowly. But it basically loads instantly instead of staying grey (or blue) for up to 10 seconds. Furthermore, the MMPK is created with ArcGIS Pro 2.6.x because all MMPKs created with 2.7 or later suffer from the bug BUG-000157394 "Mobile map packages created in ArcGIS Pro 2.7.0 or newer do not honor the Join symbol layer drawing option when displaying the .mmpk file in ArcGIS Field Maps". This bug lets street crossings appear ugly and unprofessional. In the video attached we compared the Runtime 200 behavior with an MMPK created with ArcGIS Pro 3.4.2 (left hand side) with an MMPK created with 2.6x (right hand side). With the newer MMPK it seems to be even worse. But this is only by chance. Generally, the behavior of Runtime 200 is similar with both MMPKs. On the start image, you can clearly see the ugly crossing rendered with the 3.3.4 MMPK. Is there any way to configure how much of the map gets loaded or to adjust the extent calculation to ensure proper rendering even when the map is rotated? Unfortunately, we cannot provide the MMPK publicly. Do you think it would be a good idea to raise a support issue with this issue? We appreciate any insights or suggestions you might have! ...

Great – this is still the same behavior in ArcGIS Pro 3.2.0 ... View more

In case somebody is interest: Our customer reported this issue to Esri support and it now has an official bug number: BUG-000162862: Message "Cannot evaluate expression because the current thread is in a stack overflow state." happens while debugging certain variables in threads in ArcGIS Pro SDK 3.1 Our customer currently does not plan to escalate this issue. Nevertheless, if you contact Esri support and let yourselves be add to the list of customers effected by this issue, maybe Esri decides to put a fix for it into ArcGIS Pro 3.1. ... View more

Hi @Wolf , Please add me to the list of people who need a 3.1 patch for the issue "Cannot evaluate expression because the current thread is in a stack overflow state." Cheers, Ralf P.S.: Würde es helfen, wenn ich den Wunsch auf deutsch wiederhole? 😉 ... View more

Hi Rich, I just ran into this thread with a similar question. Your answer is valid for the OP's question but in my case I need to get the names of all annotation feature classes in the GDB. Here, your approach would mean that I have to hydrate each FeatureClass only to find out if it is an AnnotationFeatureClass or not. As there are no alternatives, I will go for that. However, maybe you guys can add an "IsAnnotationFeatureClass" property to the FeatureClassDefinition object, or – even better – make   Geodatabase.GetDefinition<AnnotationFeatureClassDefinition>("myAnnotation")   and   Geodatabase.GetDefinitions<AnnotationFeatureClassDefinition>()   work. ...

In the last two years we developed a few dozens of attribute rules. Some of them are really fancy. But the test rule I have for this bug (or whatever it is) is really simple. It's connected to a field that simply get's a copy of a value of another field. The whole expression is like this: $feature.SOME_FIELD. So, not much room for doing mistakes here. What's really strange: We are running the floors with this issue for month and you are the first person I had contact with where the attribute rule is triggered using "Add Selected To Relationship". But it looks like there are no significant differences between your and our case. I hope for ArcGIS Pro 3. Maybe it heals our problem. ... View more

Hi Sean, Thanks  for your fast and extensive answer. Yes, our rule is supposed to run in the UPDATE case and, yes, we are using "Add Selected To Relationship". But I forgot to mention that our data is branch versioned and therefore, we have to edit the data using a feature service. What kind of data do you have? Service, File Geodatabase, or Enterprise Geodatabase (= SDE)? Ralf ... View more

Hi @Sean_Haile, We are facing the same issue as @Jan_Creupelandt : The "update" attribute rule is not triggered when the foreign key is set using the context menu item "Add Selected To Relationship" from the "Attributes" dock pane. By contrast, if we establish the relationship by copying the parent's ID into child record using the table view, the attribute is triggered. This behavior is on ArcGIS Pro 2.9.5. We currently do not have any machine with ArcGIS Pro 3.x. Therefore two questions: 1) Do you establish the relationship by "Add Selected To Relationship" or by copy'n'pasting the ID? 2) What version of ArcGIS Pro do you use? Ralf ... View more

Hi @HåkonDreyer , according to the thread https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-sdk-questions/arcgis-pro-sdk-updating-the-same-attribute-on/m-p/851203/highlight/true#M4248, there is no way to get the sessionID in Pro. I need it for a similar issue: Roads&Highways (aka Location Referencing) has no API inside Pro. Therefore, we need to implement customizations using R&H's REST API. But without the sessionID things get mixed up. ... View more

Thanks for sharing this information with me, though it is very sobering. I fear I will need to put any debug message into a string attribute of the feature being edited. ... View more

I have the very same problem, i.e. returning an "edit" dictionary with null values does not work because null is converted to 0.  ... View more
