Composite Bands Output Symbology Issue

Ed_ — Mon, 08 Sep 2025 19:11:30 GMT

So in Pro 3.5.3, i have been trying to create composite band raster in GeoTIFF format. So, I used 5 rasters as input rasters all in GeoTIFF format. Please note that none of them are RGB or spectral bands. The output comes out black for some strange reason even though the pixels have values. I even tried rebuilding the pyramids but still the same black render on the map.

So, then, i extracted the input rasters in ESRI grid format to a geodatabase. and then ran the composite bands tool, and stored its output in the ESRI grid format as well in geodatabase, then the output default output symbology comes out as expected.

Is the black render output a bug in Pro 3.5.3 with the GeoTIFF format output in the Composite Bands tool? Or is this a limitation when composite band output is stored as a GeoTIFF raster?

as per your previous thread

Composite Bands Output Issue - Esri Community

are all the rasters integer? with values in the range 0-255?

if they are and the esri raster works, or even a plain *.tif then it has something to do with the geotiff specification.

I don't see anything on the public facing support site, so contact Tech Support for further help
