Hello all,
I created a python addin for ArcMap which works fine for me. Every time I open ArcMap the addin is displayed properly, ready to go. Yesterday I tested installing it for one of the end users. It installed fine, but it doesn't display. You have to right click the toolbar area then check the addin, then it shows up.
Every time ArcMap is opened it's necessary to right click and check the toolbar. Any ideas why it isn't just always displaying as it does for myself?
Thanks!
I'm not sure if this would make a difference or not, but did you install it as you, or was the user logged on? Addin's normally get place in
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\ESRI\<Desktop10.x>\AssemblyCache\ {longID}
so if you install as you, maybe it isn't in their User's appdata directory. I'm not sure if that would cause the issue of the menu not showing by default not.
Hi Rebecca,
The addin was installed by the user.

So as a quick update. The addin continued to not display. And then all of a sudden one time today when the user opened the mxd, there the toolbar was docked and displaying. No ideas why, but it's working. Weird.

I see the same sort of thing over and over with the project I've been working on: I want my 3 word address to be 'Weirdness In ArcPy"
