Request to add an "Advanced ArcMap Settings" utility in ArcGIS Pro, similar to the one available in ArcMap.

Requires the use of the "Advanced ArcMap Settings" utility available in ArcMap.

However, this functionality is currently not available in ArcGIS Pro. Therefore, we would like to request that this capability be added to ArcGIS Pro to work in the same way as it does in ArcMap.

@SunkubbDev Thanks for the idea.

Most of the Advanced ArcMap Settings are at Project options ; recommend reviewing those.
Looks like this idea is specific to Editing > Empty string = Null. If that's the functionality you are after, please update the title to precisely reflect the need.
It also helps to mention the use case, how you use this in your workflows

Agree, that's missing in the option setup.

One exemple. Rotate marker is missing. I know, now you have the flexibility to set each marker individually but, for us is a big drawback. We rotate all marker to follow the display when the map have rotation.

Like ask before, add some basic parameters. It's frustrating to always enter the same field like in tiled label to annotations. Being able to set them once an for all could save hours of lost time.

Hi @SunkubbDev

As @AyanPalit suggested, can you please clarify the specific use case that you have for adding a setting to control storing empty strings as "" or null in ArcGIS Pro. We'd like to make sure that there aren't other ways to achieve what you are requesting, since Pro does differ in some ways from ArcMap.
