~Hi Kirk, the sample is designed for use with "mil2525d". To change it you would have to replace that literal string with the name of your dictionary. However, I think the property grid expects mil2525d entities also so that might break also but it's been quite a few years since I wrote that sample and I don't remember all the details.~ scratch that - I see u are using mil2525d. I'm not sure off the top of my head. Looks like the GetDictionarySymbol call does not find your selected symbol and, off the top of my head, I dont know why ... View more

Mody, The pattern to use is CoreHost - assuming you need access to the Geodatabase. It requires a Pro license and a Pro install on the server machine. Pro, itself, does not have to be running. However, the application framework, maps, layouts, and so forth, are not accessible from CoreHost. If you need to access Pro project files and their content, the preferred pattern would be arcpy. ...

Thanks for this Than. This is a bug. 2.7 is almost final and so we cannot get the fix in for 2.7. We will fix this in 2.8 ... View more

Thanks for this Joel. This could be a bug then. Could you make a repro available to tech support so we can debug? ... View more

The add-in must be loaded. (Step 10). The toolbox folder is not deployed on install. When Pro shuts down the folder remains. _However_, if: either - the add-in is uninstalled or - the add-in is not loaded the next time Pro starts (eg security settings were changed) the toolboxes folder will be deleted..... So even though the folder may be present on the disk between Pro sessions, if the accompanying add-in is not loaded for the session then neither will its toolbox. This is mentioned under the "Note:" at the bottom of the previously referenced article.  I suspect the confusion is arising from examining the assembly cache location of a previously loaded add-in where the toolboxes folder would be present (if it had an embedded toolbox) and comparing it with the assembly cache location of an add-in with an embedded toolbox that has not (been loaded).  ...

Chris, you can only read collada from a file.  Note from: SymbolFactory ConstructMarkerFromStream(...) Remarks: "Marker can be created from the following stream data type: JPG, BMP, PNG, GIF". (I realize that the code example on the API reference page is a little misleading because it is actually using "ConstructMarkerFromFile".) ... View more

Hi Curt, try this: The key is that the code attempts to eliminate any unnecessary selections either by checking the amount of movement of the mouse or by comparing the current mouse position with the polygon of the current parcel. Only if the mouse has moved the pre-requisite amount that would result in a new parcel being selected does the code actually do the selection... Note: one important assumption - that the map and parcel layer are in the _same_ projection...if they have different SRs then the "GeometryEngine.Instance.Intersects" statement will fail. The map point would have to be projected first and that could be an expensive operation. To ensure that they do have the same projection just change the Map CoordinateSystem to be the same as Parcels via the Map Properties dialog. internal class SelectOnMove1 : MapTool { private Point _lastLocation; private FeatureLayer _parcelLayer = null; private static readonly object _resultsLock = new object(); Dictionary<string, object> _currentResults = null; private int _deltaPixels = 0; public SelectOnMove1() { IsSketchTool = true; SketchType = SketchGeometryType.Rectangle; SketchOutputMode = SketchOutputMode.Map; } protected override Task OnToolActivateAsync(bool active) { _parcelLayer = MapView.Active.Map.GetLayersAsFlattenedList() .FirstOrDefault(l => l.Name == "Parcels") as FeatureLayer; if (_deltaPixels == 0) _deltaPixels = SelectionEnvironment.SelectionTolerance; return base.OnToolActivateAsync(active); } protected override Task OnToolDeactivateAsync(bool hasMapViewChanged) { _parcelLayer = null; return base.OnToolDeactivateAsync(hasMapViewChanged); } protected async override void OnToolMouseMove(MapViewMouseEventArgs e) { if (_parcelLayer == null) return; //use SelectionEnvironment.SelectionTolerance but change this as needed //....default is usually 3... if (_lastLocation.X >= e.ClientPoint.X - _deltaPixels && _lastLocation.X <= e.ClientPoint.X + _deltaPixels && _lastLocation.Y >= e.ClientPoint.Y - _deltaPixels && _lastLocation.X <= e.ClientPoint.X + _deltaPixels) return; _lastLocation = e.ClientPoint; //Get the feature attributes or null var pin = await QueuedTask.Run(() => { //Make sure that the Map spatial reference is set to the //_same_ SR as the parcels layer! var mpt = MapView.Active.ClientToMap(e.ClientPoint); var strap = ""; //check against the shape first - note: we are assuming that //the mpt and "poly" SRs are the same! if (_currentResults != null) { strap = (string)_currentResults["STRAP"]; //is the point in the current feature extent? var extent = _currentResults["ENVELOPE"] as Envelope; if (mpt.X <= extent.XMax && mpt.X >= extent.XMin && mpt.Y <= extent.YMax && mpt.Y >= extent.YMin) { //see if we are still selecting the same feature var poly = _currentResults["SHAPE"] as Polygon; if (poly != null && GeometryEngine.Instance.Intersects(poly, mpt)) return strap; } } //This is for the selection + highlight var sqf = new SpatialQueryFilter() { FilterGeometry = mpt, SpatialRelationship = SpatialRelationship.Intersects, SubFields = "OBJECTID" }; //This is the slowest part... var sel = _parcelLayer.Select(sqf); if (sel.GetCount() == 0) return strap; var oid = sel.GetObjectIDs().First(); if (_currentResults != null) { var curr_oid = (long)_currentResults["OBJECTID"]; if (oid == curr_oid) return strap; } var attrib = Module1.Current.GetParcelRecord(_parcelLayer, oid); _currentResults = attrib; strap = (string)_currentResults["STRAP"] ??

Hi Sreeni, apologies for the delay but we were testing this configuration. The bottom line is that the classes referred to in the DAML must be in the add-in assembly. Therefore, to distribute functionality across multiple assemblies, in general, there are two choices (and variations thereof): Spread the functionality across multiple add-ins.The "master" add-in, for example, defines the Tabs and the "optional" add-ins update the Tab(s) with their buttons and so forth.  Within the add-in use a containment pattern to load the library classes/functions that do the "work" within the buttons, etc. public class AddinButton : ... { private SomeLibraryClass _doRealWork = null; protected override void OnClick() { if (_doRealWork == null) { _doRealWork = new SomeLibraryClass(...); } //etc‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ There is a third option that involves Categories but that is beyond the scope of this post. If you are interested in that please review these samples and watch this technical session: ConfigureGallery sample CustomCategories sample Advanced Pro UI Customization, Dev Summit 2019.

Basically, if you ignore the logic Wolf has implemented to check whether to change progress value and text or not, the pattern Wolf is using (in WPF) is the same standard pattern as with old school WinForms for updating the UI from a non-UI thread. Namely: Check if you are on the UI thread, if so, update progress directly. If not, invoke the update on the UI thread first. So the pattern resolves to: private void UpdateProgress(...) { //whatever "update progress" means - change a counter, text, etc NotifyPropertyChanged("ProgressValue");//Assuming something is bound to this } private void UpdateProgressSafely(...) { //FrameworkApplication and System.Windows.Application are the same thing if (FrameworkApplication.Current.Dispatcher.CheckAccess()) //On the UI - do update directly UpdateProgress(...); else { //We are on a background thread, invoke on the UI FrameworkApplication.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke((Action)(() => UpdateProgress(...))); ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Which is pretty much copy/paste ready. UpdateProgressSafely() can be called from any thread. The last thing probably worth some explanation is this intuitive piece of syntax: //what is all that "(Action)(() => .....) for? FrameworkApplication.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke((Action)(() => UpdateProgress(...)));‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Well, let's remove all that "(Action)(.....)" cast reducing the syntax to a more legible: FrameworkApplication.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() => UpdateProgress(...));‍‍ where "() => ..." is the standard anonymous delegate usage. However, intellisense will complain that: It "Cannot convert lambda expression to type 'Delegate' because it is not a delegate type" and you will get a compiler error. BeginInvoke has numerous overloads and without the "Action" cast the compiler cannot resolve which overload we want it to use. We have to help it by providing an explicit "Action" that wraps the delegate "() => ..." bringing us back full circle to "BeginInvoke( (Action) (() => ....) )". To simplify the syntax, you can also add your own utility method like this in your Module that can be used to call any method safely on the UI: //in your module or some helper class public void RunOnUIThread(Action action) { if (FrameworkApplication.Current.Dispatcher.CheckAccess()) action(); else FrameworkApplication.Current.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(action); } //usage await QueuedTask.Run(() => { //some length process //... Module1.Current.RunOnUIThread(() => UpdateProgess(50, "working..."));‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ... View more
