Just to clarify on the original question, starting an edit session manually wouldn't make the tool start to work. The tool uses arcpy.da cursors to calculate the geometry properties into the field, and these cursors need to work within an arcpy.da.Editor block in some cases. This logic is already in the tool, so I'm not sure what's going wrong with the logic, but would appreciate if you can contact tech support as soon as possible so we can start fixing the bug.

Aileen Profir‌ Thomas Colson‌ what type of enterprise gdb are you using? We've tested in house on SQL Server and Postres, using unversioned feature classes, and it's working here. Thanks EDIT: Tested Oracle too, and found it working. Any details about the repro steps can get us started on fixing this for the first 2.2 patch. Thanks ... View more

Mark Tukman‌ did you upgrade to Pro 2.2 from a previous version? Were you using customized Python environments? The PYTs can fail to initialize when there is a corrupt Python environment, which can also stop you from running ArcPy or other Python commands in the Python window. Can you try a simple arcpy command like arcpy.GetInstallInfo() in the Python window? ... View more

I'm sorry you feel that way.  We went back to the original NIMBUS bug case listed above and tested with the same data using new software versions (namely ArcGIS Pro), and the Join Field tool correctly joins all attribute values from the join table to the input table, without nulls. The only nulls are those which were already in the join table. If you have a case that still isn't working please upload it here or contact tech support. The top table is the input to Join Field (a feature class), bottom table is the join table. All the joined fields in the top have values, except where the join table has pre-existing nulls. ...

Summarize Within is the tool we tell everyone to use for this case. If you feel the results are not accurate you should work with tech support so they can troubleshoot the issue and get it to developers to fix the problem if it is found to have inaccuracies.  I will also take a look at the data you previously updated. ...

To add to what Nobbir explains, there is currently no plan to take this approach for executing a tool within the ArcGIS Pro SDK. We recommend you can start an ArcGIS Idea and provide your value statement why this would be beneficial, and others can also comment and vote on the idea. ArcGIS Ideas  ... View more

Daniel, A future enhancement will allow the thumbnail from the metadata to be used on the ribbon button. For now you will need to edit that daml file with the image of your choice, like shown below. This was done by setting the largeImage property: <button id="esri_geoprocessing_forest_TreeRangeOverlayModel" caption="Tree Range Overlay Model" largeImage="C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\ESRI\tree32.png" ... ...

Hi Daniel and all, Several people have mentioned that part of why they like Python Add-ins is to simply open a script tool form/dialog directly from a custom toolbar/menu/ribbon/etc. I'd like to show you that we have a new feature in the Pro 2.2 Beta that allows you to customize the ribbon and quick access toolbar with any geoprocessing tool (both Esri system tools and your custom script and model tools that have been added to the project). This provides another solution in addition to the customization of the Analysis gallery mentioned above. These ribbon and Quick Access Toolbar customizations are saved into a user file in your Local App Data folder (%localappdata%\ESRI\ArcGIS.Desktop.Config.daml), so they apply to any project you open as the same user (and can be shared within an organization if the customization makes sense for all staff to use). The daml file can be configured to change the icon, size, and many other properties of the ribbon buttons.  ... View more

Can you explain the type of GIS data that you would use with this chart in an ArcGIS Desktop application? The example of wikipedia (Gantt chart - Wikipedia ) does not look much like GIS data. ... View more

Thanks for the information and for creating the idea: https://community.esri.com/ideas/14452  We will keep track of this and prioritize our work as the idea gains support. ... View more

Hi Stephen, it isn't currently in the near or mid-term roadmap for Pro to have a charting API in the Pro .Net SDK. This could perhaps be in our long term plan if there is enough user demand. I would encourage you to add your thoughts to an ArcGIS Idea, which will allow others to see and comment and add fuel to the fire I would like to add that programmatic charting in ArcGIS Pro has already started, but through the Python/ArcPy library. Chart—ArcPy Classes | ArcGIS Desktop We started with ArcPy because the first request we heard was to make charts via geoprocessing script tools built with Python. Just out of curiosity can you explain your business case for creating charts using the .Net SDK? What kind of charts are you making, what interaction pattern do you want, etc. If we understand your use case it will help us design and understand why this work should be a priority. This would also be great info to add to the ArcGIS Idea if you can create one. Thanks, Pro Charts dev team ... View more
