I want to make updates on an AnnotationFeature's Graphic. For that I use this pattern:   var graphic = annotationFeature.GetGraphic() as CIMTextGraphic graphic.Shape = someGeometry; annotationFeature.SetGraphic(graphic) annotationFeature.Store() ActiveMapView.Invalidate(..);   I want the annotation to reflect my edits instantly but without the annotationFeature.Store(). For every update on the graphic Store() creates Add-/Delete rows in a versioned geodatabase. What I want to achieve is to update the Annotation's graphic in some sort of sketch operations and then commit the operations in a single edit operation. Tnanks. ... View more

After clicking some modify tools the Modify Features (esri_editing_EditFeaturesDockPane) dockpane pops up and gets focus even if the dockpane is closed. How to stop this behavior? If the dockpane is closed I want it to stay closed. Instead I want my custom dockpane to have focus. How can I achieve that? Disabling the Modify Features dockpane by removing its DAML entry is not accepted by our client. They want to have the entire Pro application. I managed to disable the condition of the Modify Features dockpane but it keeps popping up. I suspect Esri activates the dockpane programmatically ignoring its condition. I found similiar question: Can I prevent activation of Editing pane when I execute a IPlugInWrapper command?  but don't understand @John_Jones  answer: John Jones answer  Can anybody help me please? Thank you. ... View more

My goal is to get these nice annotation editing display feedbacks (see pictures) in a custom annotation editing map tool. To achieve this I built my own MapTool. In the OnSketchCompleteAsync method I programmatically execute esri_editing_EditVerticesText or esri_editing_EditVerticesModifyFeatures. Editing.daml says both are buttons. See code:   IPlugInWrapper wrapper = FrameworkApplication.GetPlugInWrapper("esri_editing_EditVerticesText"); var command = wrapper as RelayCommand; command?.Execute(null);   After programmatically clicking these buttons I get the desired display feedback but another out-of-the-box Pro tool becomes the active tool: esri_editing_ModifyFeatureImpl. After programmatically deactivating the appropriate states I could disable esri_editing_EditingMapCondition which is the condition of the esri_editing_ModifyFeatureImpl tool. As a result esri_editing_ModifyFeatureImpl didn't became the active tool anymore but the desired display feedbacks were gone too. Question: I want my custom MapTool to remain Pro's active tool after programmatically executing esri_editing_EditVerticesText so I can catch mouse or key down events but still have the annotation editing display feedbacks. How can I achieve that? In ArcMap we did the same: we programmatically executed ArcMap commands in a custom tool. This way we could build a all-in-one annotation editing tool that fitted our customers needs and we could re-use the built-in annotation editing display feedbacks. Any help is much appreciated.

I read it is mandatory to have Global IDs in order to use Attribute Rules, is it? And why is that? I found no explanation in the docs. Also read my question here please: Are Global ID preserved by the platform? - Esri Community Thank you ... View more

We have a big ArcMap Extension running that assigns GUIDs to new features. That's how we identify features and keep track of them throughout our workflows. Therefor the GUIDs need to be persistent. I read about Global ID. I think of it as an Object ID: maintained by the system but a GUID. Is it guaranteed that a Global ID is preserved by the platform no matter what out-of-the-box GP tool (Append, Copy, etc.) or workflow (check-out, replication, reconcile, etc.) I use? This environment setting made me suspicious: Preserve Global IDs (Environment setting) . Thanks. ... View more

The Row.Handle property is not stable but it should according to the docs: https://github.com/esri/arcgis-pro-sdk/wiki/ProConcepts-Geodatabase#unique-instancing Other handles are. Table.Handle for instance. Am I doing something wrong? Help is much appreciated, thanks. The code snippet below is a unit test. The Row.Handle is not stable in Pro App context either, e.g. running in QueuedTask. [Test] public void Compare_row_handles_SDE_LearningTest() { var osaConnection = new DatabaseConnectionProperties(EnterpriseDatabaseType.Oracle) { Instance = "bla", AuthenticationMode = AuthenticationMode.OSA }; using (var geodatabase = new Geodatabase(osaConnection)) { var featureClass = geodatabase.OpenDataset<FeatureClass>("foo"); var row0 = GetRow(featureClass, 2453); var row1 = GetRow(featureClass, 2453); Console.WriteLine("rows are equal: {0}", Equals(row0, row1)); Console.WriteLine("rows are reference equals: {0}", ReferenceEquals(row0, row1)); Console.WriteLine("row handles are equal: {0}", Equals(row0.Handle, row1.Handle)); Assert.AreNotEqual(row0.Handle, row1.Handle); } } public static Row GetRow(Table table, long oid) { using (var cursor = table.Search(new QueryFilter { WhereClause = $"{table.GetDefinition().GetObjectIDField()} = {oid}" }, false)) { if (! cursor.MoveNext()) { return null; } var row = cursor.Current; Assert.False(cursor.MoveNext(), "more than one row found"); return row; } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ...
