Pro "Arc Map" Equivalency Ideas You Should Vote On!

I've been tracking these in several different places, but I figure some folks might be helped if they're looking for Pro to something that they do in Arc, and stumble across this. Comments turned off, the best feedback you can provide in response to this is a good use case in any of the ideas below that you vote on. If you think an Arc Map Equivalency Idea should be on this list, PM me. Bookmark, as I'll update this pretty often. Some of these are in Product Plan, but you may have additional user requirements that are relevant to be added to the idea before they build it.

I totally love this, a ton of those links have become hidden/archived; I think it may be time for a spring cleaning as it were.

Yeah, most ideas that are hidden/archived are because they were marked Implemented before the migration to the new Esri Community platform. We didn't feel they needed to stay open since they served their purpose - they were submitted, voted on, prioritized and included in ArcGIS Pro.
