ArcGIS Pro 3.5: Bugs found

Here are some bugs that I've found after using Pro 3.5 for a few minutes. 

  1. When using Copy > Paste Special to copy a feature class in a FGDB the new FC retains the alias of the old FC.

  2. During an edit session, Pro will stop showing the edited geometry once an edit is completed (press F2, etc) and revert to showing the old geometry on screen until you save and refresh the map.
    You can still interact with the geometry in its new location (edit vertices will show the correct geometry while using the tool but revert to display the last saved version when you finish the tool operation.)

    This bug is extremely confidence inspiring to clients when you are sharing a screen during a VC to go over an earthworks design revision.

  3. When copying text or numbers from a popup window you may get a leading space or tab character when you paste the selection into something else e.g. Excel, Notepad, etc.

  4. There are still some PDF issues. When exporting a layout, an aerial image in ECW that is clipped to a boundary only partially displays in the PDF. 

These all occurred in 3.3.5 so nothing new.

Another bug for 3.5: 

- set a layer to unique values symbology

- select a field to generate the unique classes

- select a color scheme to... well, I guess just change the color of the first item because it's automatically "selected" so now trying to change the color scheme for everything only does the first item.  Now you have to manually scroll and select all the classes and then choose your color scheme. 

 

Went to submit a case for this one, but the ESRI Technical Support "Create a Case" page doesn't even include 3.5.2 as an option for the ArcGIS Pro version.  Also, that text field for issue description when submitting a case is still lagging. It gets worse the more you type - since there's some kind of AI running in the background to review what you've typed and offer suggestions, I'm assuming that it has poor performance which is making it difficult to actually submit a case.

Update:

ESRI support has an existing bug for the symbology color scheme issue (BUG-000177332) and it should be fixed in ArcGIS Pro 3.6. 

The ESRI support agent I had for this was extremely helpful and is relaying my information about the "create a case" form lagging when filling out the description box internally.

I think I've been trying to search for reported bugs in the wrong place so I'm noting this here for anyone else confused: If you go to support.esri.com, you can search and filter by the product and version to find reported bugs.  In this case, I have to filter for all versions of ArcGIS Pro 3.5 and keep my search text simple, but I can find the bug.

Not really a bug, but different behavior in ArcGIS Pro 3.5 that I can't find documented in a bug/enchancement, issues addressed list for Pro 3.5, or the "What's new in ArcGIS Pro 3.5" document: The service layer credits property now actually pulls all the service layer credits. Previously, it seemed like the serviceLayerCredits property was only pulling basemap information even if there were other service layers in a map that had credits. 

Tested this with a basemap and service layer in a layout in Pro 3.4 and it only pulled the basemap credits. Tested it with the same basemap and service layer in 3.5 and it gets all the service layer credits (as intended based on the documentation for dynamic text tags: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/3.4/help/layouts/add-and-modify-dynamic-text.htm)

Like I said, not really a bug, but it is a change that I couldn't find documented or mentioned anywhere so I thought I'd put it out on the Internet in some form in case others get confused by the increase in text in the service layer credits.

Insert Map is greyed out in the QAT and in the Ribbon.

It re-appears after a while if you go and do something else and not feed its attention seeking behaviour.

I've had other buttons/tools mysteriously go inactive temporarily since updating to 3.5 e.g. "Zoom to selected" in the Attribute Table.

Sometimes they come back after a few minutes, other times it requires a Pro restart.

I've just deployed a new PC with Server 2025 as OS and all new user accounts, etc. 

The Freeze on Copy bug is alive and well.
