Thanks Christian Martin Mützel‌ for the question and Tom Bole‌ for the answer about Layouts. The ability to set a width and height for chart export is coming in the Near term, likely ArcGIS Pro 2.7. In Pro 2.6 we've built more capabilities for automating chart creation through arcpy, as well as chart export functions which do provide the ability to set height and width for the exported graphic file. 2.6 is currently in beta, if you are interested in trying the workflow via Python scripting in arcpy, send an email to [email protected] to get more info about joining the beta program. Otherwise please hold tight for Pro 2.7.

Hello everyone, Thanks to Hugh B‌ ' s help troubleshooting the problem, we have found and addressed the bug in Pro 2.6 Beta 2. The issue is with per-user installs of ArcGIS Pro 2.5, or configured installs that do not write registry settings to the LOCAL_MACHINE folder. If anyone is experiencing this and would like to test the fix, and other capabilities, provided in the ArcGIS Pro 2.6 Beta program, please send me a notice: [email protected]. If you need to stay using ArcGIS Pro 2.5, the only solution available now is to install using the per-machine option. Drew

Thanks very much Hugh B‌, I think we're getting somewhere. I will try to reproduce your configuration. In the mean-time, can you upload the contents of that "Get Count _ xxxx" folder? It should contain the task.py file and a task.xml file. The task.py contains the actual executable used to run scheduled tools outside the application, and the task.xml contains a description of the scheduler properties. Since you didn't mention task.xml maybe the creation of this file is what is failing...

Hello Hugh B‌, We have tried to troubleshoot this problem with others as well. Can you try these steps and answer a few questions? Do you have Pro installed per-user vs per-machine? Is the account you are logged into the admin of the machine? Is it a physical machine or virtual? Do you have write access to the folder %localappdata%\ESRI\ArcGISPro\Geoprocessing\ScheduledTools? Try to make a new text file in that location. If the Geoprocessing or ScheduledTools folders doesn't exist can you try to make those folders manually in that location? Where is your project file located, on your local system or on a network share? Can you make new files in that location? Can you make a new Untitled project (use Start without a template... option when Pro opens) and just try to schedule a basic tool like Get Count (Data Management), using a feature class path as input.

Please upload a sample image or contact tech support. It is likely the software vendor that you used does not write the coordinate metadata in a format this geoprocessing tool can read.

Thanks very much Joshua Bixby‌, my pictured error was the same Warning 00258. Glad that you are seeing the same warning now instead of the dreaded unhandled error 999999.

Mark Johnson‌ Scott Evans‌ In ArcGIS Pro you can go to options and turn off logging to the dataset metadata and to external XML files. These are both independing of Geoprocessing History in your Pro project. Geoprocessing options—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation Now every tool you run across all sessions and all projects under your user account on the machine will not save extra metadata to the datasets nor create XMLs in your user profile directory.

If you are using a layer name, like MG_linhas_transmissao, as input, that layer has to be saved in a project so that the external scheduling system can locate and know the data to use. Is your project with that layer name saved? Can you try to use the full path to the feature service (URL) instead of the layer name and see if that resolves the problem?

Hello Pace Farbstein‌ Joshua Bixby‌ Can you describe what version you are seeing the error 999999 with this calculate field case? A few releases ago we added code to catch this NoneType error and raise a warning. If you are still seeing the issue in 2.5 I would love to better understand your data and repro case. Thanks Error as of 2.5 that results from the replace() Nonetype exception:

Instead of trying to figure out how to construct the path with all the \ which are Python escape characters, use the very handy os function, os.path.join(): os.path.join(r"\\DPWTECHENG\Plat", !plat_book! + "_" + !plat_page! + ".tif")

Thank you for this post Scott Drzyzga‌. This problem was brought to the development team a few weeks ago and has been fixed in ArcGIS Pro 2.6 (it will be in the early adopter snapshot of ArcGIS Pro 2.6, or the public beta available in a few months if you would want to participate). For the 2.5.x release you will need to perform the additional step you explained with the Project (management) tool.

Hi Paul Cote‌, We will investigate this issue. Thanks for providing your project. We will let you know any information soon. Drew

Husham Mohamed‌ please try to use the full url of the feature service when scheduling, instead of a layer name. It may be that the application cannot hand over credentials for the layer to the schedule process, and we may be able to work around this by using the full url rather than the layer name. All you need to do, instead of using the layer in the open tool dialog for your script tool prior to clicking Schedule, replace the layer name with the full feature server layer path.

You do not need to use arcpy mp or ApplySymbology to symbolize an output dataset of a script tool. There are three approaches: 1. Open the script tool properties, go to the Parameters page, find the output feature class parameter, scroll right to the Symbology column click in the cell and then browse to your layer file. This is the easiest for always symbolizing the output the same way. 2. If you need to symbolize differently depending on the output shape type or some other factors you may want to write code to symbolize the output. You have access to a parameter's same Symbology property set through the UI above available in tool validation. See here: Setting output symbology in scripts—Geoprocessing and Python | Documentation 3. There is a new arcpy function, arcpy.SetParameterSymbology also exactly for this purpose. This allows you to keep the Symbology logic in your source code instead of validation or the tool properties. Arcpy mp is for mapping workflow automation not GP output symbolization. These other methods give you a ton of options for performing the latter.

These other browsers will have no impact on Pro, which is hardwired through it's WPF architecture to use Internet Explorer only. IE 11 or above is required. Check the other system requirements here https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/get-started/arcgis-pro-system-requirements.htm And use the Can I Run It? link to analyze your system. Can You Run It?
