The setting: ArcGIS 10.5.1, Windows 10 64bit os
I'd like to explore developing a script tool but have run into a road block. I thought it was just me being a bone-head, but for once it's not. (I know, right?!)
I downloaded a zipped toolbox and script tool from an ESRI page, just to see what's up with the procedure. Toolbox works, as does the script itself. But...
Then I try to add a script to that same toolbox, using the same script (renamed to myScript.py) and when I get to the step where I am to define the parameters, the form will not accept anything I add. I type in a value in the the display name column and when I tab to or click on the data type column, the name disappears. I sent the script to a team mate of mine and he is able to to get it to work just fine.
I didn't find anything about this with a search, but I'm wondering if anyone else has come across this problem.
Were you able to figure this out? I am having the same issue. I have tried all of the recommendations from this conversation, and still can't add values to my add script tool...
If I recall, I did a reinstall and that cleared it up...
Hi - Is there a solution to this problem yet, I only just installed ArcMap yesterday and I have the same issue, I have tried everything but keep getting the same issue, the Display name disapears when I tab to the type column
I vaguely remember this particular issue and it seems a reinstall of ArcGis is what got it going for me. I'm no longer using ArcMap/Catalog so my frustrations these days are soley focused on ArcGis Pro...
Thank you
I managed to fix the problem, the re install worked.
Issue is now resolved.
Just have to find the correct script now to batch download attachments.

Haven't looked at this but Dr Google recommended it. https://community.esri.com/docs/DOC-10441-downloading-feature-layer-attachments
