Why does this work in ArcMap but not in Pro without any special settings?   UPDATE Note, this did not help. I made the setting, still getting new instances. Dan, have you actually tested this and gotten it to work or are you just posting me links? I am going to ask tech support and report back. ... View more

Yes. Did not help. I downloaded the 64 bit version of NotePad++ Opened Notepad++ x64. Opened Pro, went to backstage. Set the 64 bit version to be the editor in Pro Then in the Catalog window I right-click > Edit a script in a toolbox I get a new instance of NotePad++ x64, does not open a new tab in the editor like ArcMap does. ...

Not a dumb question, this is a tricky raster processing puzzle. Fortunately, the Raster Calculator  makes it fairly easy to combine tools to get your answer. Map Algebra is cool. A key part of this is the use of the Con (conditional) tool to make choices about what cell values you want.  Note I'm assuming the cells you don't want are zero (not NoData), this is based on your second screen shot. 1. Make a mask of combined grids where purple==1 and pink==2.  Where pink and purple cells overlap, you get a value of 1, if neither are >0, NoData. If using raster calculator tool, make the output cgroup and start the expression AFTER the = sign. cgroup = Con("pink.tif" == 1, 1, Con("blue.tif" == 1, 2))‍‍‍‍ 2. Convert all data cells to 1 (cgroup > 0 creates a grid that has values of 1 and nodata). Make zones (unique cell value) for each continuous group of "data" cells mgroup = RegionGroup(cgroup > 0)‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 3. Select all cells that are in a grouped region (zone) with more than one of the two cgroup values, extract cgroup values from those zones. Pick one of the following depending on what you want the output to look like. mgroupv = Con(ZonalStatistics(mgroup, "VALUE", cgroup, "VARIETY") > 1, 1)‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ The above returns cells with values of 1 and NoData. You can use Con one last time to convert your NoData to zero if you want (like your input rasters) mgroupv0 = Con(IsNull(mgroupv), 0, mgroupv)‍‍‍‍ ... View more

I heard the following today from a (well-connected) Esri employee. This is a rumor but from a good source. Your mileage my vary. It sounds like sessions will be available in the platform for registered attendees only until September 1st, then will continue to be available to the public until UC next year. I don't know any details, though. ... View more

My Esri has a FAQ page that may help: https://my.esri.com/#/questions/   If that does not help, you should contact your Esri customer service account people, these should be listed under Informacion general (top left in your screen shot  -- this is called "Overview" in English).  ... View more

Eugene, Esri is pretty good about keeping old things working, even though they have extended support through 2021 I would be surprised if it didn't keep working for you.  (Believe it or not, I can still run Arc/INFO under Win 10 [sort of, the help does not work anymore] ArcInfo Workstation Guidance‌) - was just using it the other day to import old .dlg files : old school!  So what you have you can keep using. But I do strongly encourage you to look into the new offerings, the field apps that work with AGOL over the last three years have been updated to really well off line using onboard GPS (all iPhones have one) and higher accuracy external GPS (by bluetooth) (including basemaps) - you can disconnect and work without internet connection and when you get back in service everything synchs up. One positive development I just heard of is that they are looking at consolidating the many different apps into one with more features. You may need some new hardware but some of the new stuff is so awesome and easy to use with these apps, for example BadElf GNSS Surveyor (1-2m for $600) or their new BadElf Flex which can give you cm accuracy from a $3K device anywhere (except the polar areas).   Collector for ArcGIS‌ ArcGIS QuickCapture‌ ArcGIS Survey123‌ Mobile GIS ...

Manu, already mentioned above by Curtis Bradley‌ - but thanks definitely for the detailed instructions - very helpful! ... View more

Jamal, I don't see any thing in your screen shot that is "not working".  Maybe you could describe your problem better? It is true that sometimes one tool or another does not handle overwrite well, but for me overwrite output has been working a little more consistently than it does in ArcMap, mostly because Pro is a single application (as opposed to futzing with file locks caused by using ArcMap and ArcCatalog at the same time).  Though a common problem in Pro is that since it is multi threaded, you can have a feature class or field list open for editing when you try to run a tool and run into a file lock error. The fix is to go to the edit menu and save or reject your changes, this will remove the file lock so you can overwrite your output. ... View more

I had a similar issue where I have been trying to replace a feature class and the tools can't figure out that the old version is gone.  If you use a workflow a lot, it is worth reporting it to through tech support. Sometimes they have a better workflow for you (for example in your case, changing the names at import time instead of renaming) but they also can log enhancement tickets that ARE used by the dev teams to meet user's use-cases! ...

I agree - feature datasets should not be used as folders - they should be used when needed for topology, network datasets, etc.  This was Esri's design from the get-go; In my first introduction to geodatabases in an early adopter ArcMap class the summer of 2000, they told me not to use feature datasets as folders! (Remember that class Jorge Ruiz-Valdepena‌?) ... View more

Thanks Chelsea Rozek‌ - fixed it! ... View more

Looking at these screen shots, it appears you may be doing some projection on the fly. I do not recommend doing this, as it is hard to control resampling on the fly - it's best to run the Resample tool on inputs (with a Snap Raster used to line things up) before you run Focal Statistics. ...

This is a very common Geoprocessing problem. Since you are using the Calculate Field tool, it sounds like you are using ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro‌.  1. Add a field (beds per county, float) to table 1 2.  Use Add Join tool (or right click layer, joins and relates, Add Join) to join table 1 and table 2 by a common field (usually county FIPS code). After you set up the join, the fields in both tables will appear in the table view. 3. Calculate Field on your new field with an expression (using the language you are most familiar with, Python works with both ArcMap and Pro): example, 100.0 * !tbl1.BEDS! / !tbl2.POPULATION! ...
