ArcGIS Pro MCP
I have released a free, open-source ArcGIS Pro add-in that lets an AI assistant work on the project you have open — style layers, run geoprocessing, query attributes, build layouts — by asking in plain language. "Colour the provinces by area, pastel red through green." "Which are bigger than 15,000 km²? Zoom to those and…

SQL table won't allow geometry edit. It pretends to do it, then errors out on save.
The feature dataset and table show traditional versioning with move edits to base. When I try to move a vertex, I get the error: "Modify vertices failed. The table is not multiversioned." I have edited this table before, but not for a long time, maybe a year, maybe two. About two years ago, I moved the geodatabase from one…

Export Issues?
I'm working on a relatively complex paper map and having a lot of trouble exporting to any format. I'm getting different behavior depending on whether I export to PDF or an image format. When I export to PDF, a specific layer isn't showing in the output at all. This is a web feature service from another organization. The…

In an animation through time, can I fade individual features in and out of the display?
I'm using ArcGIS Pro 3.7.1 to create an animation through time showing the evolution of a long-distance trail from its inception to the present. As the animation moves forward, trail sections (individual features in the feature class) appear when they are built and sometimes disappear when significant reroutes occur.…

Why does Pro truncate features when creating using the streaming tool?
I have been creating line and polygon features using the streaming tool, and Pro will lay down vertices that I want, as well as vertices I don't want. When the feature is completed, it will be mis-shaped. Any thoughts on how to prevent this? Pictures of an example:

What's the workflow for an inside buffer now that you can't have a negative number for Outside only in ArcGIS Pro 3.7?
We recently moved from 3.5 to 3.7. I have a user that uses this workflow to create setbacks for parcels. When he tried this morning, he received an error saying that negative numbers were not allowed for buffers. When I checked the help documentation, sure enough in version 3.7 negative numbers are no longer supported. I…

Define a minimum and maximum width of a route corridor after using the Least Cost Corridor tool
Hi all, Is there a way to constrain a route corridor to a set width? I've used the Least Cost Corridor tool and have symbolised it to show the lowest cost route. I'm planning to convert it to a polygon to output my final corridor, but I need my final corridor to be between 50 m and 1000 m, and it currently varies from 10m…

Detect Feature Changes identifies false changes
Hello all, I'm using DetectFeatureChanges to identify changes between two sets of dirt road segments. Almost all are correctly considered as "not changed", except for two of them (in red and blue below), which are identified as a pair of Deleted and New (objectid 43 to 46). Apparently the matching didn't occur properly.…

Question about sign-in in ArcGIS Pro app
Hello all. I am just starting an ArcGIS course in university and already running into issues, probably self-caused.

georeferenced pdf no longer visible in ArcGIS Pro map
Good afternoon, I am georeferencing jpg (mainly) and pdf (occasionally) as-built utility files in ArcGIS Pro 3.5.3. I had georeferenced a PDF file and was adding sanitary sewer cleanout features, when the PDF simply disappeared. 'Zoom to layer' takes the map to the correct location. I have a few other georeferenced jpg…

When did Pro start closing my Map and Layout tabs upon exiting the .aprx?
I feel like I'm being gaslighted! I provide GIS support in my organization and starting around March of this year ('26) users began reaching out, telling me that their projects were suddenly corrupt… that maps and layouts were gone. We quickly discovered that they had simply been automatically 'closed' upon exit from the…

I am wondering how ArcGIS sorts the attribute tables when sorting by a field.

Hello! I'm working with spatial map series and have 36 different maps (layouts/pages). It works great, but for a few of the pages I would like to add another map frame (e.g. an inset map). How can I do this with map series? Is there a workaround? I tried making a copy of the layout for the page I want to add additional…

Have found the longest flow path in a watershed, but how to extract it as a polyline?
I am doing some post-watershed analysis that requires me to 1) get the length of the longest flow pathway in a watershed from the upper reaches to the pour point (which I have thanks to Flow Length tool), and 2) have that exact (or simplified) flow pathway as a line, which is the step I cannot complete.

Does anyone have any idea how I can fix…
