I just installed ArcGIS Desktop 10.5.  I see there is some new functionality changes. 

How about a new ArcGIS Desktop Functionality Matrix? 

Your thoughts? 

Thank you,
JW.

The traditional ArcMap Functionality Matrix PDF for 10.5 is at https://www.esri.com/~/media/Files/Pdfs/library/whitepapers/pdfs/arcmap-functionality-matrix.pdf

@haven't see that in years... but if you are referring to the tools in arctoolbox they now include  a functionality matrix at the top of each toolbox tree... here are two examples

Analysis toolbox licensing—Help | ArcGIS Desktop 

Conversion toolbox licensing—Help | ArcGIS Desktop 

then there is there version specific

What's new in ArcMap—ArcGIS Help | ArcGIS Desktop 

which lists additions, changes etc.

I see the 10.4.1 versions after a search  so I suspect eventually there will be one.

The 10.4.1 versions

http://www.esri.com/~/media/files/pdfs/library/whitepapers/pdfs/arcmap-functionality-matrix.pdf   desktop

http://www.esri.com/~/media/files/pdfs/library/brochures/pdfs/arcgis-server-functionality-matrix    server

They are in a PDF doc format, not a just on big chart.

EDIT:  link to the  ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5 Functionality Matrix (i.e. Server, Portal, and the like)....I tried variations, but couldn't find the Desktop on yet.....

http://www.esri.com/library/brochures/pdfs/arcgis-enterprise-functionality-matrix.pdf 

adding this here to keep them together

neat... it is a compendium of the stuff that is in the help files... like my two links plus non-tool related functionality from the help files like...

Geodatabase topology rules and topology error fixes—Help | ArcGIS Desktop 

So I guess you either use the help files on a topic or tool related basis or as one big file.  You are right that the matrix will come out later since the help file just came out recently.

I'm a big believer in the browser or esri search....hard to know where things will show up.....or how many results and search attempts things might take.  ...and yet, some of the simplest results never do.

Those links now go to the updated PDFs for 10.5

The same tools and functionality we are accustomed to also have the same license level designation in ArcGIS Pro. 

Example: Analysis Toolbox Licensing
