enable a button for layouts only

PeteVitt — Thu, 25 Feb 2021 18:43:32 GMT

Hi - I'm using condition="esri_mapping_layoutPane" in the Config.daml file to have a button be enabled only in layout mode. This was working until I recently upgraded ArcPro to 2.7.1. Has anything changed to make this not work anymore? the button is always disabled now

Thanks

Pete

From here:

Previously, Dockpanes could be established with a condition so that their content only appears when the condition is satisfied. This has now been deprecated.
You can now use WPF Visibility attributes to display or hide controls in the dockpane. Here are couple of samples in the arcgis-pro-sdk-community-samples repo that implement this.

I'm seeing same issue with button for esri_mapping_layoutPane with 2.7.1.

esri_mapping_mapPane works as expected.

Looks like a bug to me.

thanks Kirk, I'll look into this. Are the WPF attributes implemented on the Config.daml or assigned in code?

Thanks Kirk for pointing this out. This appears to be a problem in 2.7.x. We retested this issue in the upcoming 2.8 release and it has been fixed in 2.8.
