I've had a running python script for 5+ years in which it utilizes the Make Query Table Tool and Copy Rows tool to create a .dbf table.   All has been running fine until upgrading to 10.4.1.  The original table is accessed thru an OL db connection with Make Query Tool/Copy Rows and copied to a .dbf.  However many of the records with a "short integer" field are being changed to a "long integer".  This did not occur prior to the upgrade.  I've tested the tools directly in ArcCatalog and get the same results, so I don't think it's related to the script itself. Any ideas would be appreciated. Eddie Q. ... View more

Hi all, Hopefully I'm in the correct location for asking this question.  Now days I'm not sure with the new GeoNet structure. Anyway, I'm trying to change the color of specific levels of annotation displayed on an ArcMap document with VB coding.  I can do this when the database source is a coverage.  However, I'm trying to make use of our Annotation stored in a file geodatabase and do the same thing. I asked this question years ago, but it was never fully answered and I've yet to find one. I can loop thru the map layers and find the needed level on the map, but I can't get to the proper interface to change the symbology.  Let me be clear, I'm not trying to change the database, just the symbology (ie color) shown on the map. Here's what I have: Public Sub Set_Pcl_Anno() Dim pPclLayer As ILayer Dim pCompLayer As ICompositeLayer 'Dim pAnno_Pcl As ICoverageAnnotationLayer2 Dim pAnno_Pcl As ILayer Dim pMyFeatLayer As IFeatureLayer2 Dim pAnnoLyr As IAnnotationLayer '================== Loop thru layers for desired Annotation Layer =================== For i = 0 To pMap.LayerCount - 1     Set pPclLayer = pMap.Layer(i)        If pPclLayer.Name = "AnnoClrmn" Then         Set pPclLayer = pMap.Layer(i)               'Anno is in geodatabase with levels..........         If TypeOf pPclLayer Is ICompositeLayer Then             Set pCompLayer = pPclLayer                        For k = 0 To pCompLayer.Count - 1                 'Get the anno level to change symbology.........                 If pCompLayer.Layer(k).Name = "Pcl" Then                                        Set pAnno_Pcl = pCompLayer.Layer(k)  'Sets to ILayer correctly........                                        'PROBLEM starts here                     ' Can't find a way to set the symbology of the selected geodatabase layer.                     '  I tried setting to these Interfaces, but no luck....                     'Set pMyFeatLayer = pCompLayer.Layer(k)  'Set as IFeatureLayer                    ' Set pAnnoLyr = pCompLayer.Layer(k)      'Set as IAnnofeatureLayer                                        Exit For                 End If             Next k         End If     End If Next i '     Set pAnno_Pcl.TextSymbol to some pre-defined Textsymbol '     This worked when the pAnno_Pcl was a coverage and not a geodatabase. '     Set pAnno_Pcl.TextSymbol = pBlkTextSymbol End Sub Am I that close????  Can anyone get the last bit of code??? Sincerely, Eddie ... View more

Seems like I've been down this road before, but I'll try again. I am using a Geoprocess spatial query to return user defined fields/columns to the client web browser.  However, what i keep getting returned is all the (75 fields/columns) of the map layer.  I've tried both the submitJob() and execute() methods of the GeoProcess and get the same results. Here are the two methods: 1.  GP.submitJob(params)  The params are defined by the code below: var Fields:String = new String("PATPCL_OWNER OWNER HIDDEN NONE;" + "PATPCL_LGL_ACRE LGL_ACRE VISIBLE NONE;" + "PATPCL_SALEDT1 SALEDT1 VISIBLE NONE;" + "PATPCL_ADDR1 PATPCL_ADDR1 HIDDEN NONE")     params.polygon = featureSet; params.Relationship = DropDownMenuSelection; params.ShowFields = Fields; Whether i specify the fields to be HIDDEN or VISIBLE, i still get all fields returned.  I know the GP model is working correctly, because I can run the submitJob thru the REST service and the returned job has the correct fields. It seems to me I am passing the ShowFields parameter incorrectly thru FLEX, or there is some kind of disconnect between FLEX and ESRI with the submitJob() method. 2.  execute(params) Uses the same params as shown above.  However, since there is no job id returned by this method I cannot check it thru the REST service.  I can only check the returned results thru my FLEX app and I'm finding that all the fields are returned. I've done alot of researching on the web and apparently others have had the same issue.  Has anyone found a solution? Sincerely, Eddie Q. ... View more

I now see that 10.1 allows you to change the default symbols on a given map service.  I've successfully done this for polygon layers in a map service. Has anyone tried to do this for an annotation layer?  I've been trying a method of using LabelOptions, but I'm not sure if this is the best way, or if dynamically changing the annotation symbol is possible. Here is the actionscript code i'm using to change the polygon outline color of my map service layer. var newoptions:LayerDrawingOptions = new LayerDrawingOptions(); var newsym:SimpleFillSymbol = new SimpleFillSymbol; var newline:SimpleLineSymbol = new SimpleLineSymbol; var newrend:SimpleRenderer = new SimpleRenderer();      newline.color = 592460; newline.width = 5;      newsym.outline = newline;      newrend.symbol = newsym;      newoptions.layerId = 13; newoptions.renderer = newrend;      drawoptions.push(newoptions);      TaxMap.layerDrawingOptions = drawoptions; TaxMap.refresh(); Sincerely, Eddie Q. ...

I'm using ArcGis10.1 with the new Flex3.3.  I love the new PrintTask class.  The maps are now of high quality and easy for the users to print. However, I've noticed when labels of any given map service are printed they are being duplicated within the polygon.  In the flex map view the labels are not duplicated.  I thought at first it was a setting in the "labels" part of the mxd.  However, when viewing the mxd the labels are not duplicated.  Still, I tried adjusting the settings under the labels option of the mxd; republished the service; and still got duplicate labels. I hope i'm missing something, because other than the labeling it works great.  However, the labeling is an important part of the map. any ideas, Eddie Q. ... View more
