Hi all

As most of you now know, the official release of ArcGIS Pro v1 has been released, however there are not many/any additions to the layouts, which I would have liked included, that I can see. The interfacing of both the view and layout is nicely set out with the ribbons etc, and far more emphasis is now being placed on naming your elements within your view and layouts. However without simple items like guide lines, graticule grids etc. for the layout, it makes map outputs far more difficult and less attractive/useful than ArcGIS.

Once I have more use of it, I will update again, however currently, for me, it is not going to be my primary ESRI software, which I was hoping it would. Perhaps this is a strategy of ESRI to not have too many people migrate too quickly from ArcGIS and therefore allow slow integration and also error finding.
