ArcGIS Pro's Calculate Field tool supports adding a new field to calculate values into.  ... View more

This is not offered as part of Buffer, but for the last several releases of ArcGIS Pro we have had the tool Remove Overlaps (multiple) in the Analysis Tools toolbox, that can be used for the described purpose. I wrote the intermediate buffers into memory, then removed their overlap using the Centerline option to split the overlapping buffer shapes with output to a final output feature class.   ...

Hi @wayfaringrob , @LarsArneson , @Anthony  I apologize that you ran into the defect you've described with the Export tools and field map control.  I was not able to reproduce the problems that were described in the comments on this Idea, using the Export Features tool with Pro 3.4 or 3.5 Beta, using file geodatabase or feature service input.  In earlier Pro release, a format specific problem related to the export tool field map was logged: https://support.esri.com/en-us/bug/export-features-in-arcgis-pro-does-not-support-editing-bug-000162878  This defect was fixed in ArcGIS Pro 3.3, and backported to Pro 3.2.2. Because this is a bug, I'm closing this idea. Please refer to the ArcGIS Ideas Submission Guidelines and Statuses: https://community.esri.com/t5/community-help-documents/arcgis-ideas-submission-guidelines-and-statuses/ta-p/904874#U904874  2. No bugs please. Idea Exchanges are not the right place to log software bugs or crashes.  Keep in mind that just because it isn’t the right fit as an Idea does not mean that we aren’t here to help.  Bugs and crashes should be logged with Technical Support.  If working in ArcGIS Desktop/ArcGIS Pro, crashes can be reported by sending an error report.  If you are using a version after ArcGIS Pro 3.3 and still encountering a defect related to the field map, please use the link above to log a new Esri Support incident.

@Bud BUG-000170631 is something we are still trying to improve, but the fact is you can perform the 1:m join by leaving the join operation blank, if the input and join tables are in the same database. This behavior is documented. But it would be better if it could be made explicit in the parameter drop down. ... View more

@Bud databases like SQL Server, Oracle, others will be random when there is no SORTBY provided. Sometimes it might be one record then change to another tomorrow.  ... View more

@Bud thanks for your comments. For enterprise database sources there currently isn't a mechanism to match to the lowest ObjectID, we're in discussion with the enterprise geodatabase team for ideas how to resolve this.  The one-to-many option is only available if the input and join tables are in the same database, since the joining happens at the database level.  ...

This was more of a defect, so I am closing it as such. Pro 3.5 has improved parsing of Python scripts for swizzling data path strings. The f string pattern shown above will no longer raise an error. The folder variable will be updated by the consolidation swizzling, and the full contents of the c:\temp directory would be uploaded to the server during publishing of the web tool.  ... View more

Support for ExtendedData attributes in KML is being added to the ArcGIS Runtime KML parser that is in use across Esri products. KML To Layer is being actively worked on for the last several months to support this parser. We are hoping this will be complete in the near term, perhaps the ArcGIS Pro 3.5 release.  ... View more

The tool command messages inside the model tool are not on by default in Pro, since it can make a model tool that runs many tools have an extremely long message collection. You can turn these messages back on using the Command Syntax additional message option under Geoprocessing Options.              ... View more

This option is already available since the Pro 1.x series. Many users prefer the behavior you describe, and others want the opposite behavior, so we needed to develop an option to suit either case. This and the other Geoprocessing Options are set at the application level so apply to all your projects that you work with on that machine. Most of these options you can set once to your preference then forget about them 🙂 https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/analysis/geoprocessing/basics/geoprocessing-options.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_E587F6B438FC489BA15AD4A41F090733   ...

Just an update that in ArcGIS Pro 3.4, geoprocessing tools have been integrated with the Pro notification system. This doc link will work when 3.4 is released: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/projects/arcgis-pro-notifications.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_DDA2A8047D4141E3BE1CB87532DB3768 As part of the overall notification system, geoprocessing notifications will benefit as enhancements to that system are made. There is a plan to support notification sounds in a future release. I'm changing the label of this Idea to align with how notification enhancements are tracked. ... View more
