Here's my partial workaround. I want to have a subset of my original data to work on which would be the new layer in the old method. What I've done is add the layer a second time and instead of a selection I did a definition query on the second copy. Not great but worked for my needs.

Make Layer From Selected Features is included in the release of ArcGIS Pro 2.1.

Look for that release in January 2018.

This is how I always do it as well.

Kory:

You say this feature is available, but does it work on all data sources?

As per this thread:

https://community.esri.com/thread/221433-make-layer-from-selection-not-working 

This feature does not work on SQL Server and Oracle SDE databases.  It does work on file gdbs for me, but not for others so it is inconsistent.

What type of data sources were you using when working with this feature of Pro?
