Not able to undo after EditOperation.Execute()

OscarYam — Wed, 17 May 2023 07:22:57 GMT

I created a custom function to update a feature attribute.

I started by adding a dock pane and binding an update action to a button.

The update was a success, but I cannot undo it with the built-in undo button of ArcGIS Pro, which is dimmed. I can only discard the edit by using the discard button. I am wondering what's wrong. I would be grateful if anyone could point me in a direction.

part of the dock pane xaml

part of the C# of the ViewModel

private ICommand update; public ICommand Update { get { if (update == null) { update = new RelayCommand(() => UpdateFeatureNumber()); } return update; } } private void UpdateFeatureNumber() { QueuedTask.Run(() => { EditOperation editOperation = new EditOperation { Name = "Update Attribute" }; editOperation.Modify(currentRow, "Field", value); if (editOperation.Execute()) { ArcGIS.Desktop.Framework.Dialogs.MessageBox.Show("Updated.", "Update Attribute", MessageBoxButton.OK, MessageBoxImage.Information); return; } }); }

Hi,

You need to override OperationManager method of your dockpane:

public override OperationManager OperationManager { get { return MapView.Active?.Map.OperationManager; } }

More info you can find here:

In order to use Undo/Redo you have to 'save' your edits first. More details are here: ProConcepts Editing · Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk Wiki (github.com)

In short these are the relevant methods:

Save edits: await Project.Current.SaveEditsAsync(); SaveEditsAsync
Discard Edits: await Project.Current.DiscardEditsAsync(); DiscardEditsAsync
Has Edits: Project.Current.HasEdits HasEdits
