Hello @JulieGrindborg To me it really looks like the project was not properly removed from the workspace. It would be best to create a new workspace and link the project again. Thanks Thomas Fuchs

Hello @romainjanil and @DevinLavigne Thanks for your input. With python it is indeed only possible to set attributes, but no styles. The CE team is looking into this. Thanks Thomas Fuchs

Hello @DidemDidem Thank you for your Error report. There has been some updates to the Python component in the last release. To track down the issue, please provide some additional information: Which version of CityEngie are you using? Does this happen always you open the console? Have you tired to create a new workspace? Thank you Thomas Fuchs

Hello Rihab Bouallagui‌ Usually, the "unknown texture" texture appears, when the asset is not readable or doesn't exist in the CityEngine workspace. Please check all assets paths in your rule file, if they exist and can be previewed (Right Mouse Menu > File Preview) e.g.: texture("/ESRI.lib/assets/Facades/International/Groundfloors/g_f001_t001_Mercantile_001.jpg")‍ These CGA operations set texture assets: texture operation—ArcGIS CityEngine Resources | Documentation material.map shape attribute—ArcGIS CityEngine Resources | Documentation

I can confirm that there has been a change on the server-side, that prevents the get map data search to receive results. The necessary changes were made for the upcoming CityEngine 2020.1 version. Please excuse the inconvenience.

Hello Ufuk Deniz ÖZTÜRK‌ Thank you very much for your report! Currently I can't reproduce the issue with CE 2019.1. Maybe the connection to Python is blocked by a security setting? What also would be very interesting to know, if the problem persists with CE 2020.0 . This version is using a new version of the Python development framework. It could be that issue was fixed by the upgrade.

Hi, Thanks for your questions. In general one should use unique project names to avoid naming conflicts. When using (cloud) archiving it's recommend to export a project to an archive file. Note, in case the export is too slow, you can uncheck "Compresses the contents" (resources selected to be exported) in the archive that is created. Once the project is exported, it can be removed from the workspace and disk. Export a project—ArcGIS CityEngine Resources | Documentation In case import is prevented with the warning: "Some projects cannot be imported because they already exist in the workspace", the existing project in the workspace needs to be renamed/removed.

Symptoms and Affected Systems: We experienced rendering issues causing (amongst others) artefacts in the viewport no labels in model hierarchy transparent textures missing or being fully opaque The issues seem to be related to certain newer AMD graphics cards like the Radeon RX 5XXX series and platform specific drivers. Affected systems include late 2019 MacBook Pro 16-inch models. If you experience problems like the issues above try the following workaround (needs CityEngine 2020.0 or newer): Workaround: Make sure the latest graphics driver is installed. If rendering issues are still present, continue with step 2. Open the configurations file CityEngine.ini (requires admin privileges) Windows: Open the C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\CityEngine2020.0\CityEngine.ini in a text editor. Mac: In the Finder, Right Click on the CityEngine2020.0 application > Show Package Contents then navigate to Contents > MacOS > CityEngine.ini and open in a text editor. Enforce blending transparent content, by adding the following line to the CityEngine.ini file: -DforceSimpleTransparency=true‍‍‍‍‍‍ Start the CityEngine application

Hi Derrik, in 3D rendering the phenomenon creating those fuzzy surfaces is called Z-fighting. It occurs when two or more primitives have very similar distances to the camera. This would cause them to have near-similar or identical values in the z-buffer, which keeps track of depth. This then means that when a specific pixel is being rendered, it is nearly random which one of the two primitives gets drawn in that pixel because the z-buffer cannot distinguish precisely which one is farther from the other. To avoid this from happening in your CGA code, it is important to add NIL to the leaf shapes that are not needed to be drawn. e.g.: Generate --> Paint Report Paint --> color("#FF0000") Report --> report("facadearea", geometry.area()) NIL‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Hi Martin Chapple‌ please go to the download page again using a different browser (e.g. Chrome or Firefox). Most important: Esure JavaScript is enabled. https://www.esri.com/en-us/arcgis/products/esri-cityengine/trial Choosing an industry in the dropdown menu should then be possible.

Hello Jean-Daniel, Thanks for your report. Could you please provide more information? Is there any error message, or entry in the Log? Did you try to login using a different connection to the internet? What kind of ArcGis Online account do you have?

Thanks for reporting this. A bug report has been made. As a workaround Edit -> Undo can be used. The Windows version is not affected.

You find the download links and license keys on my.esri.com For server installation of the upgraded license refer: ArcGIS License Manager for 2019.0 quick start guide—Esri CityEngine | ArcGIS I just created a blog post gathering all information on the issue: https://community.esri.com/community/gis/3d/cityengine/blog/2019/09/19/arcgis-online-security-update-affects-cityengine-20171-and-earlier

Since the beginning of 2019 https://www.arcgis.com rejects connections using TLS 1.0 for security reasons. CityEngine 2017.1 and earlier are unable to support the now required TLS 1.2 protocol. What is TLS? TLS stands for “Transport Layer Security.” It is a protocol that provides privacy and data integrity between two communicating applications. It’s the most widely deployed security protocol used today, and is used for web browsers (i.e. HTTPS) and other applications that require data to be securely exchanged over a network. TLS ensures that a connection to a remote endpoint is the intended endpoint through encryption and endpoint identity verification. The versions of TLS, to date, are TLS 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2. Action Needed: Affected users are requested to go to my.esri.com and upgrade to CityEngine 2018.x which is covered by the same License key the latest version of CityEngine Esri CityEngine Resources | ArcGIS
