Can you solve this?

Jean-SimonLevert — Mon, 20 Feb 2017 23:09:34 GMT

I have

x : -73,512864

and

y: 45,659871

What is the code i need to put in ArcGIS Pro (Python3) to go to that GPS place and to zoom it at 1:5 000?

Put your codes lines here (I tried everything and im not able to find any way.)

If you've tried everything, how can we help?

Share your best guess and we can go from there.

Looks like you can use the Locate tool to get you there. Look at this thread Is there a Go to X Y tool, or similar in ArcGIS Pro ?

Zooming to 1:5000 I'm not sure

edit: for the python side of things, this may be a good starting place

-----------------------------------------------------

import arcpy
aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject("CURRENT")
m = aprx.listMaps()[0]
lyr = m.listLayers()[0]
lyt = aprx.listLayouts()[0]
mf = lyt.listElements()[0]
mf.camera.setExtent(mf.getLayerExtent(lyr, False, True))

-----------------------------------------------------

I found that this will zoom out until i see everything.

Im still looking for a way to get to x : -73,512864 and y: 45,659871 and to zoom to 1:5 000.

This seems to be a duplicate post??

See Joshua Bixby‌ response https://community.esri.com/message/668014-re-zoom-in-at-15-000-at-x-73512864-and-y-45659871

Also, I'm not sure how to set in Pro, but make sure it knows your separator is a "," comma and not a "." dot (localization?)
