Is there any way, outside of using AGO Assistant, to change the label of an action? In my EB app, I have added a data action whereby a selected feature in the map is passed as the location source to the Near By widget (named Demographic Report in this screenshot below): What I would like to do is rename "Set location" to something else so that when a user clicks on a feature in the map and clicks the 4 circles for the available actions, it says something else like "Run Report with this" instead of what the default currently is which is "Set location".

That's too bad. I will say that has also happened to me before where, despite saving back versions, the resulting DWG will open in Pro without any features. In those situations, what I have done is gone back into Civil 3D and used the MAPEXPORT command which allows the CAD user to export the features in the CAD file as a shapefile or file GeoDatabase.

Autodesk tends to update its product software at a more aggressive rate compared with ESRI so sometimes it may be possible that the CAD file is saved in a newer Autodesk version than is supported inside of ESRI. By default, I tend to save CAD files back to and older Autodesk standard such as v2010 before I mess with it inside of ArcGIS. Ask your developer if they can save the CAD file back to an older Autodesk version and then try bringing it in again.

There are URL length limits depending on the browser so perhaps you're hitting this limit.

Please add the ability to create a folder structure for bookmarks in the Map Viewer, and have that folder structure honored in Instant Maps, Experience Builder apps that consume that map. Recently, I created a web map & Instant App related to the recent Executive Order ordering increased logging on federal lands. I wanted to provide bookmarks in the app so that users could quickly zoom to their national forest (or Ranger district within that national forest). For a region like the Pacific Northwest, this creates an endless scrolling list of bookmarks but this could be cleaned up quite easily if a tree view widget was implemented within the bookmarks container. Ideally, I would be able to set it up like this: <state> <national forest> <ranger district 1> <ranger district 2> Also, if possible, the parent level of each part of the tree could contain a spatial bookmark. So, in my example above, the state, national forest, and ranger district X would contain a spatial bookmark.

With the Add Data widget, I would like to see the option to change the symbology of the layer that is created when adding data using the Add Data widget. I've built an EB app that allows people to make their own geoPDFs for use in the field while doing groundtruthing. These maps typically include a raster of canopy height or perhaps an aerial photo. If someone adds a shapefile or KML file of polygons, those polygons will have a fill by default which will obscure the raster information that is important. At the very least, I would like options to change polygons from solid to transparent fills as well as changing the color of polygon outlines.

There is the Collapse Dual Lines to Centerline tool which kind of does this but you would have to do a lot of work upfront for it to work well. Less work would be needed if you had something like a polygon layer of pavement, or perhaps event right of way.. [EDIT: I read your post the reverse of what you want- I thought you wanted to extract centerlines from parcel polygons]

This is pretty rudimentary but you could always create a a skeleton HTML file, with your desired URL, and then just iframe the EB app inside it.

Owen- I now see what you're talking about. I would suggest moving that "Design" button functionality into the Story Map Settings inside the three dots. It wasn't intuitive to me to click on that, for that functionality, when I was looking for options. Also, I want to replicate the classic story maps design where section headers exist WITH an image background. Is that possible in the new system? It's not jumping out at me, as a possibility.

...but it's always a safe bet that there will be a late spring release to give ESRI something to tout at the User Conference.

Oh, right. I ran into this with a video this weekend while trying to begin to re-build a Classic Story map with the current toolset- it couldn't be linked, and then the file was "too large" etc. I was really frustrated & disappointed that I could not just rebuild my old story map since the new design tools just don't support the old design options (full screen video playing on the cover, header with a background image strip, etc). I gave up and will wait for the UC to address specific things at the ESRI product islands..

You don't have to upload it- you can host it elsewhere and then link it using the URL to the image.

Was just coming to post that. Example mod to your code: const image1862 = new ImageryLayer({ url: "https://gis.willcountyillinois.com/image/rest/services/Orthoimagery/AerialBW1862/ImageServer", title: "Aerial Photo", maxScale: 3000, });

There are a number of other videos on YouTube about this so you can search out "arcgis pro spatial map series"

One of the worst ESRI decisions has been switching to the context sensitive Ribbon user interface. If you aren't accessing a ribbon area from the correct application state, then the ribbon section you want will be greyed out or the specific tool you need will not visible. The text description step by setp in the link I shared is a bit more specific. The first thing you have to do is create the layout, so in your screenshot, you would select Insert->New Layout and pick your desired page size (letter, etc). The layout should be open and then next you need to add the data frame onto the layout. Again, with the layout being the active tab, you would go Insert->Map Frames and select the map that you have set up that includes the point layer you want to base the map series off of. Again, with the layout being the active tab in your project, the Insert->Map Series command (chosing the Spatial option in it) then brings up the options to actually set up the map series.
