Hmmm, now I'm wondering if there is a graphics card driver involved... Have you checked to see if there's a newer driver for your Quadro P2000 on the Nvidia web site? You could also try using OpenGL rendering mode (instead of DirectX) ---> go to Project > Options > Display (tab) > choose OpenGL > OK (and requires restart of Pro). We're not seeing that kind of catastrophic failure for video export in-house, so the working theory is that it's something unique to either your machine or your scene / layers. Here's a temporary UPLOAD folder that you can send your map package to. Thanks for your help! -Nathan.

Hi JCann! Sorry you're having trouble with this workflow. First, some practical information. If you need to get the job done "right now", and you don't have too many areas to show, you could use layer visibility (which is captured in keyframes) to manually decide when the various polygons are shown within the animation. Steps: Clear the visibility range for the polygon layer - ie: so it's visible at all distances Set a definition query for the layer to see the first feature (eg: Name = "Area-1") Copy-paste the layer Update the definition query to see the next polygon (eg: Name = "Area-2") Repeat the above two steps until you have a layer for each area Turn all layers off Start authoring the animation and manually turn layers on/off as you capture each keyframe It's not ideal, but it would give you full control. Next, we would really like to figure out what you are seeing so we can fix it. If possible, could you give us a little more info on what you're seeing, for example: Does the feature distance-visibility (sometimes) fail in general usage? Or do you only see it when it is captured in the exported video file? Or do you see it mostly when zooming to a keyframe within the animation (ie: when authoring)? If you were able to share you map package for us to test directly, that would be GREAT! Thanks for contacting us! -Nathan. Esri Dev team

Extra note - I was just reminded of a bug where the feedback colors might not display in "global" scene viewing mode. You could try switching to "local" viewing mode (in the View category on the very left side of the View ribbon) to see if that helps. Thanks, -Nathan.

Hi Janderson, Sorry you've been having trouble getting your use-case to work. I'm not exactly certain of your workflow so figured I would put together a few videos to show the main points. The way it works: It calculates the volume between the [plane you move up and down] and [an elevation surface] The surface needs to be the current terrain situation The plane is where you want to surface to be after the change It doesn't have to be horizontal Fake scenario - taking out dirt to build a bridge over a waterway Video 1 - interactive creation Activate the tool, use the Polygon option, choose the 'Ground' elevation surface Which is using a local elevation raster (tif file) in the area-of-interest Click on the ground surface to digitize in the cut shape The first click sets the elevation for all the other vertices (ie: it is flat / horizontal) Drag it up/down - the 'Cut' value is the only one that matters Video 2 - using a polygon feature (in the 2D draped category) Activate the tool, use the From Layer option, choose the 'Ground' elevation surface Set the polygon layer name - ie: 'Test_CutFill' Note - I've already selected the polygon feature (and it is 'draped' on the ground surface) The polygon centroid sets the elevation for all the other vertices (ie: it is flat / horizontal) Drag it up/down - the 'Cut' value is the only one that matters Video 3 - using a polygon feature (in the 3D vector category) Move the polygon layer into the 3D (vector) category Note - the polygon has its own z-values Use the Layer option again (same parameters - 'Ground' elevation surface and 'Test_CutFill' layer) Note - the polygon feature is still selected The polygon's z-values set the elevation (we want it to be planar, but it doesn't have to be flat) Video 4 shows a planar-but-tilted 3D polygon Drag it up/down - the 'Cut' value is the only one that matters My guess at your issue is that you're not referencing an elevation surface (as the base terrain) in the expected manner, but it's hard to be sure. Hopefully the videos help. Thanks! -Nathan

Thanks Teng-Wei! Glad the workaround-fix has helped. We'll take a look at your project package (thank you!) and see if we can figure it out. Appreciate the info. -Nathan.

Hi Teng-Wei, Thanks for posting this. That result is super-unexpected. The visual effects are only meant for 3D views (which is why that set of controls on the ribbon are disabled for your 2D view). After some digging, I did find a way to get to that same state --> open a 3D scene view, enable the Black-and-White visual effect, and then convert the scene to a 2D map. The visual effect option is brought over to the map and (like it was for you) it cannot be toggled off through the UI. The property belongs to the map, so one (simple) way to get back to a 'color map' is to add a new map to your project, and then copy-paste your layers over to the new map. A bit draconian, but it'll work. I am interested in how you got your map into the black-and-white state (so we can make sure other users don't also run into it). I'm hoping you can help us here. Did you use the convert-scene-to-map workflow at all? If not, do you have any ideas what steps you were using when the display changed? Thanks! -Nathan ArcGIS Pro Dev Team

Ha, always working, always working. The list of equiv items is shrinking, so we really appreciate it when particular ideas continue to get votes and additional workflow descriptions (so we can prioritize). Thanks for all the input! -Nathan.

Thanks for the interest in this capability. Question for the group - if there was an option to include the on-screen Navigator control (when exporting images and animation-videos) would that meet your needs? The biggest caveat would be "the appearance and styling of the north arrow overlay would not be configurable" (which matches the 10.x ArcScene case). We'd clear out all the 'controls and buttons' so it'd just be the actual direction indicator. Example - the north-only indicator, vs the full 3D indicator styling. Thanks, -Nathan.

Unfortunately I'm not sure why you're experiencing this export problem. 😞 The only other ideas that come to mind are things like delays or time-outs in service layers, or some kind of network accessibility problem. If it's at all possible, it would be great if you could log a bug with Esri Support (with your animation / map package) so the dev team can test it in debug mode and see if that helps us figure out what is going wrong. Agreed that piecemeal export is a workaround, and that single export would be a much better result. -Nathan.

Hi @Simonez - the tool will only be listed if you have elevation content in the map (or scene). To add an elevation source (eg: raster DEM or a TIN), expand the 'Add Data' control on the Map ribbon and choose the 'Elevation Source Layer' option. You'll then get a 'Ground' section listed in your Contents pane, and can add more data sources to it (if needed) - eg: multiple DEMs covering your area of interest. More info is in the "Add a ground surface to a map" section on this page: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/mapping/properties/elevation-surfaces.htm Thanks, -Nathan.

Sure. It's on the 'Source' tab of the Layer Properties dialog.

Rebuilding the whole map (or whole project) would definitely be painful. I don't know why that map is no longer working well for you --> "ghosts in the machine". 😞 Sometimes similar results (ie: getting a map or layer to work again) can be achieved with annoying-but-less-time-consuming trick like resetting the data source for the layer(s) that are failing. You may have already tried deleting your cache. Sometimes I'll go big on that one and manually delete the contents of the C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\ESRI\Local Caches folder.
