If you're looking for a specific button on the ribbon for this functionality, then I agree with Dan.  It would be worth putting in an enhancement request. ... View more

Hi Jamal, I assume most, if not all, of the functionality from that list is built within Pro.  How to access the functionality has probably changed in Pro a bit since it's a new application.  For instance, adding a File Geodatabase from the Project Pane is done by right-clicking the Databases folder now and choosing the location (and of course there is the option to add one from the Insert menu as well). I'm taking a guess, but I assume this was changed because it stores the connection to that file geodatabase in the Databases folder for easy access, and also to organize the connections for the project.  After working with ArcMap for so long, it can take some time to become adjusted to the changes, but it does make working with "projects" much easier. ...

Hi Jamal, These options are in Pro.  As Rebecca mentioned, there will not be an exact one to one comparison of the buttons between ArcMap and Pro.  To view zooming options, hover over the Explore button in the Map ribbon.  To zoom in by drawing a rectangle, use SHIFT + dragging the cursor to create the box.               Cheers, Jennifer ...

Hi Jamal, Folder connections in ArcGIS Pro are stored per project.  This helps to organize the folder connections and limit them to only the ones required for that project. If you want your folder connections there each time you open Pro, I would create a general template project that you can save and work with each time. Check out Create a new project—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS for Desktop and look at the Create a project from another template section.  I think this may be the solution to your issue. Cheers, Jennifer ...

Hi Steve, I have a script to create a Map Book that I made a few days ago with the help of Create a map book with Python—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS for Desktop .  It modifies the text elements and map extent to act like they would with the data driven functionality.  Hopefully this post points you or someone else reading this in the right direction if they don't want to wait until the next release.  See the attached file for the PDF it outputs. import arcpy, os from arcpy import env # Set input feature class to parameter fc = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0) env.workspace = os.path.dirname(fc) # Set output PDF location to parameter pdfOutput = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(1) # Create the PDF file pdfPath = os.path.join(pdfOutput,'Inspection.pdf') pdfDoc = arcpy.mp.PDFDocumentCreate(pdfPath) # Assign project to parameter project = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject("D:\WebSeminars\ProTasks_Demos\Demo2\Data\BuildingTasks\BuildingTasks.aprx") project.save() # Select layout and assign to parameter lyt = project.listLayouts("Layout")[0] # Set map frame to a parameter and get an extent object mf = lyt.listElements("MAPFRAME_ELEMENT", "Map Map Frame")[0] # Set map to a parameter - when importing the layout, it imports the map that was saved with it (ensure this is set correctly)****** map = project.listMaps("Map")[0] # Set asset layer to a parameter lyr = map.listLayers(fc)[0] # Assign Title, Location, Structure, Asset ID, Condition, Last Inspection, and Notes text elements to parameters titleText = lyt.listElements("TEXT_ELEMENT","Title Text")[0] locationText = lyt.listElements("TEXT_ELEMENT","Location Text")[0] structureText = lyt.listElements("TEXT_ELEMENT","Structure Text")[0] assetText = lyt.listElements("TEXT_ELEMENT","Asset ID Text")[0] conditionText = lyt.listElements("TEXT_ELEMENT","Condition Text")[0] lastInspectionText = lyt.listElements("TEXT_ELEMENT","Last Inspection Text")[0] notesText = lyt.listElements("TEXT_ELEMENT","Notes Text")[0] # Hide Location, Asset ID, Condition, and Last Inspection text elements for the title page locationText.text  = " " structureText.text  = " " assetText.text = " " conditionText.text  = " " lastInspectionText.text = " " notesText.text = " " # Zoom to extent of asset layer ###extent = mf.getLayerExtent (lyr,"False","True") extent = mf.getLayerExtent(lyr) mf.camera.setExtent(extent) # Create Title Page for PDF lyt.exportToPDF(os.path.join(pdfOutput,"TitlePage.pdf")) pdfDoc.appendPages(os.path.join(pdfOutput,"TitlePage.pdf")) # Add Length field and calculate values (maintain length in point feature class) arcpy.AddField_management(fc,"Length","FLOAT") arcpy.CalculateField_management(fc,"Length","!Shape_Length!","PYTHON") # Copy selected features to in-memory workspace arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(fc,"in_memory/SelectedAssets") # Create center point of assets arcpy.FeatureToPoint_management("in_memory/SelectedAssets","in_memory/AssetCentroid","CENTROID") notesText.text = "Notes: _________________________________________________________________________" # Loop through selected records and create map book with arcpy.da.SearchCursor("in_memory/AssetCentroid", ['AssetID','CONDITION','LastInspection','DESCRIPTIO','Length','SHAPE@XY','STRUCTURE1']) as cursor:   for row in cursor:   # Get x and y values of centroid   x, y = row[5]   # Set different map extents for different sized features   if row[4] < 70:   # Set smaller extent   left = x - 166   right = x + 166   top = y + 131   bottom = y - 131   else:   # Set larger extent   left = x - 494   right = x + 494   top = y + 390   bottom = y - 390   # Create string from Condition domain value   if str(row[1]) == '1':   conditionValue = 'Bad'   elif str(row[1]) == '2':   conditionValue = 'Poor'   elif str(row[1]) == '3':   conditionValue = 'Fair'   elif str(row[1]) == '4':   conditionValue = 'Good'   elif str(row[1]) == '5':   conditionValue = 'Very Good'   # Update Title, Condition, and Last Inspection text elements   titleText.text = " "   locationText.text  = "Location: " + str(row[3])   structureText.text  = "Structure: " + str(row[6])   assetText.text = "Asset ID: " + str(row[0])   conditionText.text  = "Condition: " + conditionValue   lastInspectionText.text = "Last Inspection Date: " + str(row[2])   # Update map frame extent to the current asset feature   # Assign extent values to parameter   desc = arcpy.

Do you mean that you want to run data reviewer against data in a 10.1 geodatabase, but write the results to a geodatabase created in 10.3? ... View more

If your GPS points are in a tabular format, you can easily create a feature class from the points, instead of digitizing them.  Refer to resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#//00s50000001z000000 for more information on how to accomplish this. ... View more

You could try something like this.  It requires you to set the output spatial reference, range of lat/long values, and the  output feature class location to what you're using. import arcpy, random # Create list to hold groupings of coordinates triangleCoordList = [] # Create list to hold all polygon objects triangleList = [] # Create spatial reference parameter sr = arcpy.Describe("C:\Users\jmccall\Desktop\Test.gdb\TriangleSRSample").spatialReference # Set triangle counter countTriangles = 0 # Start loop for 75 triangles while countTriangles < 75:   ## Create 3 pairs of lat/long values   # Set coordinate counter   countCoords = 0   # Create list to hold coordinates for single triangle   coordList = []   while countCoords < 3:   latLongList = []   # Cerate list   # Create lat value   lat = random.uniform(50.994219776,51.066472899)   # Create long number   long = random.uniform(-113.772229212,-113.865563728)   latLongList.append(long)   latLongList.append(lat)   # Update lat long coordinate list   coordList.append(latLongList)   # Update coordinate counter   countCoords = countCoords + 1   # Append coordinate list to complete list of coordinates   triangleCoordList.append(coordList)   # Update triangle counter   countTriangles = countTriangles + 1 ## Create features # Loop through coordinate pairs in list for feature in triangleCoordList:   triangleList.append(arcpy.Polygon(arcpy.Array([arcpy.Point(*coords) for coords in feature]),sr)) # Copy polygon objects to the Triangle feature class arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(triangleList, "C:\Users\jmccall\Desktop\Test.gdb\Triangle") ...

Could it have anything to do with the limitations of the format you're downloading (ex; Shapefile component size limit is 2GB)? ... View more

Do you have your own DEM?  It could be that your data is below the elevation in the World Elevation Surface.  I experienced this same behaviour and it solved the problem for me. ... View more

Hi Bruce, You need to create a hosted feature layer from the shapefile, and then you can search for it. When you add the shapefile to My Content, ensure "Publish this file as a hosted layer" is checked.  It will create both the shapefile and hosted feature layer in My Content. ... View more

Hi Mohammad, I'm assuming you're referring to using an ArcGIS Server map service in the ArcGIS Online map viewer for your web map instead of the basemaps provided there. If this a map service you are hosting on your own server, see the following steps: 1. Click ​Add​, and choose ​Add Layer from Web 2. In the first drop down, ensure An ArcGIS Server Web Service is chosen.  In the URL section, enter the rest endpoint for your map service. 3. Ensure you check the box beside "Use as Basemap" You can also refer Choose basemap—ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS for more information, and instructions on how to change the basemap from searchable layers on ArcGIS Online.
