Add Fields using python inside a Mosaic Dataset do not show in the order of tiles....

JanBliki — Tue, 23 Oct 2012 20:19:21 GMT

I use a python script to add fields inside a mosaic dataset that I then fill using a UpdateCursor.
All this looks fine and can see the fields inside ArcCatalogue and ArcMap (using the table view on the footprint)

But when using the properties of the mosaic dataset and want sort my scenes on the new fields I discover they are not visible. Making a manual insert of these fields makes them show up... Has anyone seen that same behavior? Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Jan,

What version are you running?

I was using version 10.1.

this.arcpy.AddField_management(this.geoTable,fieldname,fieldtype,\
field_length=fieldlength,field_is_nullable=True)

I can see a SP1 came out so I will install this and try again.
