topic Create layer files in a standalone app in ArcGIS Pro SDK Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-sdk-questions/create-layer-files-in-a-standalone-app/m-p/839340#M3712 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I have an ArcObjects console app which does the following:</P><P></P><P>1. Opens an SDE workspace from connection property set.</P><P>2. Creates a feature layer from a feature class in the workspace.</P><P>3. Applies symbology to the layer.</P><P>4. Joins the layer to a table from the same workspace.</P><P>5. Saves the layer to&nbsp;a layer file.</P><P></P><P>Can the same be done in a console app written with the Pro API? I am looking at the API and cannot find a way to create a layer without adding it to a map. Also I cannot see a method to save a layer file. Is the Save Layer File GP tool the only way to do that? Thanks.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 16 Jan 2019 18:01:16 GMT AlexZlotin1 2019-01-16T18:01:16Z Create layer files in a standalone app https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-sdk-questions/create-layer-files-in-a-standalone-app/m-p/839340#M3712 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I have an ArcObjects console app which does the following:</P><P></P><P>1.
