One GIS user (one out of many) has an issue where Pro opens, the user can open a project (any project) and then Pro stalls.  The user cannot kill Pro using the Task Manager and the only solution is to restart the computer. I have done a complete uninstallation, purging of the contents of  C:\Users\thisuser\AppData\Local\ESRI, and new installation of Pro.   I can confirm that the users project are not jamming on my computer and seem to work without issue.  No other users have this issue. Windows 11, ArcGIS Pro 3.5.  The computer meets the minimum specifications for running Pro. ... View more

This Python label properties expression ought to add a new line but it fails to do so.  Any clues are appreciated.   [Contour] + ' ft NAVD88' + '\n' + str(float([Contour]) + 0.79) + ' ft MLLW'   ... View more

Hey ESRI, I would like to stop receiving Esri publications to my home.  I am well aware of the Esri subscriptions website as I visit it every month.  As you can see from the screen shot I have unchecked all publications.  Still, I keep getting ArcNews, Esri News for State and Local Government, and I suspect in a month or two ArcUser will start coming again like it always does. The  subscriber IDs that come to my home are: 33898642 Gabrisch 35148473 Joerger   Here is a screenshot of what my go.esri.com/subscribe page looks like. ... View more

I have a coworker with a folder in a network drive.  I can see this folder in Windows Explorer.  Other coworkers can see and connect to the folder with an ArcGIS Pro v3.3 Catalog window and the pane.  My one coworker cannot make a connection to this folder but they can see the folder in Windows Explorer.  They can also see the other folders in the drive with the elusive directory. I am aware of the refresh directory trick (and the F5 shortcut).  This does not work. Why is this one folder not visible (and unable to make a folder connection to) for only one individual.  My coworker has tried restarting their computer and then F5 refresh as well. Any help is appreciated ... View more

I have a Python script that executes a reclassification without issue.  I can see in my output directory the file I create (called tanaka.tif).  When I add these data to an ArcGIS Pro v3 project the file is listed in the contents pane as Reclass_tanakat1.tif.  This is annoying.  When I am in the Catalog pane and view the files properties I see no reference to or an alias for Reclass_tanakat1.tif.  This also happens with a resulting hillshade.  I get HillSha_tanaka.tif in the Pro contents when the file is named tanakaHS.tif in the directory. I see that there is no reference to these file names using gdal.Info() but I can see them in some resulting xml files that are exported by arcpy.  I suppose the is the result of my missery.  I do not need or want these outputs.  How do I stop arcpy from outputting xml, tfw, CPG, dbf files.  I only need the resulting geoTiff!   This post suggests that setting log history to false will prevent xml create but this is not true as the xml are still being created with the linked code added to the script. https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/arcpy/functions/setloghistory.htm ...

I have a Python scripting tool that will auto-export a layout to PDF or JPG, update a text box with the export  YYMMDDHHMMSS, and log who-what-where-when info to a CSV file.  I have been using this code in ArcGIS for years and recently upgraded the tool to work with Pro.  Oddly, the  Pro tool works just fine when executed from the Toolbox section of the Catalog View but fails at line 50 when executed from a Catalog Pane.  Why would this be the case?   Here is the error message: PYTHON ERRORS: Traceback info: File "Z:\GISpublic\GerryG\Python3\SuperSaverArcPro\A1-SuperSaver.atbx#Script_supersaver.py", line 51, in <module> Error Info: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'listElements'  and here is the offending code: mapnumber = get_time() #Get the name of the active map view.... view = aprx.activeView ele = view.listElements("TEXT_ELEMENT", "mapnumber")[0] #assign the mapnumber to the map.... ele.text = mapnumber  Here is a link to the tool and the code: https://github.com/LummiGIS/Auto-Export-Pro-Layout ...
