We are building an ArcGIS 10.6.1 Desktop system for a major utility that has been in FRAMME and has gads of annotation, which they demand to look and feel just like it did. There is an inconsistent behavior in how some characters work: the ArcMap appearance of some anno looks different on the map than how it does in the Attribute editor: Note that the TextString in the Attribute Editor shows a 1/2 where the map shows a space (between 149' ,3 and "). Part of the problem, I suspect, is that the character involved (in a custom TTF) is using the 8 bit, i.e. is greater than 128, while the other characters are all below 128. FWIW, I see the same problem in a previous example (built in 10.2.1, viewed in 10.6.1) where I have the data in SDE/Oracle: in that platform, I can see (via Oracle dump function) that the weird-behaving character is 208: select dump(textstring) from secohanno where objectid = 279; Typ=1 Len=26: 0,51,0,208,0,49,0,47,0,48,0,32,0,65,0,76,0,32,0,49,0,49,0,53,0,39

I have a set of .tif files that are scanned plots from a series that are basic to the utility operation. The plots are black & white and have been clipped and georeference to make a backdrop. When I was doing this with .png, everything was fine, but now that I tried tif, I notice these effects: every time I add one as a layer, it comes up with these bizarre Jimi-Hendrix-poster looking color scheme if I go to the layer properties, Symbology tab, and switch from RGB Composite to stretched, they become B&W and look just like the original plots I created a raster catalog and loaded the entire set in there, but when I add the raster catalog as a layer, it still comes up with the 60's crazy color scheme, but the Symbology tab doesn't enable changing: I note that while I can choose and Apply Stretched, it doesn't do anything After a hacking period, I observed that I can simply Remove RGB Composite, in which case Stretched becomes the choice and it does work

Hi, Rich! Good to hear from you! U19 Classic: wow, they're big and fast and play hard and well. Really not like watching Tee Ball! I have long been fascinated with, but never got into, internal worlds. This one, though, had more to do with what COM interface, or other mechanism, would you have to do in order to make your custom object (whatever its purpose) be something you could add to a layout. You may not have had to get that far into CE's primary maps, but they basically have just the feeder, with each point of control or intervention displayed on the map, with a letter designation, and a table off in whitespace the lists all the letters and operational stuff about the location. So, it's almost doable with just a Esri table that has multilines and formatting tags, but then it also has some graphics and interaction that would be relatively easy with a .net table (WPF or System.Windows.Forms, DataView etc) but not clearly doable in an Esri table...so that's why I am trying to know just what (COM Registration of some kind I guess) makes that dropdown list of supported object types on a layout...

So, I am thinking about an upcoming programming challenge where something rather like a table, but requiring many of the extra things (events, full graphical drawing control) that say WPF or other .net facilities provide, is a working part of a layout. I poked around with various documentation, but don't see what I'd have to do to wrap my custom table such that it could be placed on the layout.

I used to believe that there were specific document events that triggered things like ICommand.Enable events. I think I remember having to clean up some customizations so that they would properly raise these events, and perform properly right away without waiting for some user activity to trigger a refresh. Now, however, I am seeing command enble events firing pretty much constantly.For example, I just wrote a little test command that does nothing but log its enable executions and even if I trim ArcMap back to just 2 or three standard tool bars, plus my command, that even while minimized, the Enable runs once per second; if I mouse over the app, the rate of course goes up alot. So, my questions are: Is there a setting (eg in AdvancedArcMapSettings) that might affect this much? Am I remembering this incorrectly, or is this behavior new (relative to say Arc 8)?
