I may have the project to reproduce your issue. Lets set up call.  Contact me at jbarrette@esri.com.  ... View more

You have every right to be frustrated!  I wonder if I couldn't reproduce the issue was because I didn't use a project that may have gone through multiple changes over time / releases.  I'm querying our developers to determine if OLD images reappearing has to do with the switch to binary reference (for pictures).  Your latest, detailed synopsis is really helpful!

@Jimmy_Simpson I'm so sorry to hear your frustration!  I'm moving back to 3.1 final and will try to reproduce the situation.   Jeff = layout and arcpy.mp teams ... View more

Hello,   I see in your code you are creating a MapSeries object via the CIM but I don't see how you are using the map series object to drive extents.  You are exporting a layout, not a map series.  If a MapSeries object is in place you can use the pageRow.FieldName (used to define the map series pages) syntax to return the page name.  Here is a very simplified example. p = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject('current') lyt = p.listLayouts('*MS')[0] ms = lyt.mapSeries for pageNum in range(1, ms.pageCount + 1): ms.currentPageNumber = pageNum print(ms.pageRow.Name)   ...

Mary, Are you sure the MapView (that you can see the graphics tools) AND the MapFrame are both referencing the same Map? A Map is a collection of layers and a spatial reference, etc.  To view a map, you open a map view OR you add a map frame that references the map.  When in a layout view, you won't see Map commands unless you active a map frame.  Activating a MapFrame makes it behave like a MapView (within a layout). If you are doing everything correctly and you still don't see the tools you want, then open an issue with Support.  I can't reproduce your issue so they will need your data/steps. Jeff ... View more

Ah, but are you activating the Map Frame on the layout?  The Map Graphics below to the Map.  When you activate the Map Frame, you should see the Map tools available. Jeff ... View more

Hello Mary, I'm able to see the select tools after activating a MapFrame on a Layout. I could be misunderstanding you. Jeff   ... View more

@MarkDrosnes, I can NOT reproduce this issue.  Would it be possible to send me an email with a layer package to jbarrette@esri.com. Jeff - Layout and arcpy.mp teams ... View more

@RenePretorius @RoseF again, I'm just reminding you that arcpy.mp is a viable work-around before the Layout team has a chance to consider, design and implement a solution in the UI. Jeff - Layout and arcpy.mp teams ... View more

@Rene @RoseF this is definitely an enhancement that needs to be reviewed but in the meantime, if you are comfortable with using Python, this is something arcpy.mp could be used for. Here is a sample that creates two map series extents on a single page.  It is the opposite of what you are requesting but the concept is the same.  https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=3ba3d812f5cb483da34d009840a7c4da Jeff - Layout and arcpy.mp teams ...

@jdaniel this was addressed in 3.1 based on @taylor 's workflow and scripts. Please test when ArcGIS Pro 3.1.  It is scheduled to be released in late Feb.   Jeff - Layout and arcpy.mp teams ... View more

We have plans to address this in Pro 3.2. so that it can be done using arcpy.mp. Jeff - Layout and arcpy.mp teams ... View more

Jeremiah, That is because I have a layout with a map series in a project that ends with the characters 'MS'.  For listLayouts, the first parameter takes the layout name or a wildcard '*' combined with characters that will return a unique name. Arcpy.mp can be really powerful once you get the hang of it.  Here is a tutorial that might help you get a better understanding. https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/arcpy/mapping/tutorial-getting-started-with-arcpy-mp.htm Jeff - Layout and arcpy.mp teams ...
