I've been following the updates of ArcGIS Earth since 1.10.1. As an administrator, one thing I realized with each new release is that you have to be careful with the version number in the file headers. Sometimes, a file won't work if you use the same version number as the software version. Sometimes, the file will work, but the version will be rolled back (overwritten) to another version. Here are 2 examples :
It would be far less confusing if the file headers could always match the software version for the following files :
Thank you.
Thank you for the question.
Currently , it is by design that version in config.xml file is not updated if there is no change at a certain version. The version only updates and is valid when there are changes at this version. It means the version in config.xml file can be different from the version of ArcGIS Earth app. The previous version of config.xml is forward-compatible.
Your feedback is valuable and helpful. We'll research on this issue and find if there is better solution for manual editing of version by users. We'll keep you posted.
Thanks.
