Hello. We have been provided a geodatabase containing a point feature class and related attachments and tables. I have successfully exported the attached images from the geodatabase with the specified naming scheme. However, the question came up about whether it is possible to export attachments from the geodatabase, but this time INCLUDE the pop-up info (i.e., attribute data) in the "properties" of the image file. As an example, say an image of manhole 1_WW currently shows the xy location of the point, but it does not include any of the information that was added to the point feature class such as type, diameter, depth, etc, all of which are in the attribute table of the point. I appreciate your help. Thank you. Here is the script I used: import arcpy from arcpy import da import os inTable = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0) fileLocation = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(1) with da.SearchCursor(inTable, ['DATA', 'ATT_NAME', 'REL_GLOBALID']) as cursor:     for item in cursor:         attachment = item[0]         filenum = "ATT" + str(item[2]) + "_"         filename = filenum + str(item[1])         open(fileLocation + os.sep + filename, 'wb').write(attachment.tobytes()) ...

Hello. I wonder if anyone else has experienced this weird occurrence. I have a feature class in my main "Layers" Data Frame. Somehow, the feature class copied over to one of my other Data Frames, and now seems to lock or control the feature class within my main Layers Data Frame. So, for example, if I try to remove the layer from the second Data Frame, it is removed also from the main... Ideas on how and why this happens? Thanks. ... View more

Hello. I need to calculate acreage of upstream watershed boundaries from points of intersection between a proposed alignment and surface waters. I have never used the ArcHydro tools and was pointed to the from the USGS StreamStats site and was wondering the best method for getting this information. I appreciate any help - just a point in the right direction to get me started. I am using ArcGIS 10.4 Thank you! ... View more

Hello and Happy Holidays all. I have been working on a Web Map Journal that uses a single floating panel with about 20 "pages" containing images. I am able to add hyperlinks and actions, however, I would really like to be able to include not just a hyperlink, but also an active comparison map within the panel. When I try to save the Web Map after adding the Comparison Application map into the panel I get an error saying it can't save, but the application is active within the panel. Does anyone have any idea as to why I can add the comparison map application to the panel, but then am not able to save it? I appreciate any help! Happy Christmas, Crystal ... View more

Hello all. We have a large task of replacing datasources for MANY feature classes and rasters (we received data from a consultant, and in order to place the data on the Client's enterprise server, all data has to conform to schema requirements). I have saved all of the data in their respective receptacles on the enterprise SDE environment. Now, I need to change the datasources within each of the mxds - this means every feature class in every mxd has to be relinked to the new name and location on the SDE. I want to do this with Python - naturally, otherwise task is beyond tedious. So, I have my list of broken links, I have a table with name and location crosswalk for reference. I am not at all a Python guru and could really use some help in figuring out what the error below means (I feel like it has something to do with the enterprise SDE connection properties, but honestly don't know, especially since it is referencing my storage properties): I have my broken list already, so am referencing that: >>> for lyr in brokenlist: ...     if lyr.supports ("DATASOURCE"): ...         if lyr.dataSource == "Y:\00726_11_BDCP\data\DHCCP_ENG_Rev10b\DHCCP_Eng_Rev10b.gdb\Option_Point_Features": ...             lyr.replaceDataSource ("Y:\00726_11_BDCP\data\DHCCP_ENG_Rev10b\DHCCP_Eng_Rev10b.gdb\Option_Point_Features", "SDE_WORKSPACE", "C:\Users\cbowles\AppData\Roaming\ESRI\Desktop10.2\ArcCatalog\dhccp_eng.SDE.ER10b_Option_Point_Features") ... mapdoc.save () ... del mapdoc Runtime error Traceback (most recent call last):   File "<string>", line 5, in <module>   File "c:\program files (x86)\arcgis\desktop10.2\arcpy\arcpy\utils.py", line 181, in fn_     return fn(*args, **kw)   File "c:\program files (x86)\arcgis\desktop10.2\arcpy\arcpy\_mapping.py", line 801, in save     return convertArcObjectToPythonObject(self._arc_object.save(*gp_fixargs((), True))) IOError: MapDocObject: Unable to save.  Check to make sure you have write access to the specified file and that there is enough space on the storage device to hold your document. I appreciate all helpful comments. Thanks, Crystal ... View more
