I have been using the Rerun Analysis button a lot lately.  I am finding bugs. When you rerun a Join it always defaults back to One to One even if it was One to Many before. When you rerun a Join it will often revert the target layer back to the first list item no matter what it was before.      When this happens it also loses my fields to match and have to start over. May not be bug but an issue When you rerun analysis all custom expressions get lost. When you rerun all the symbology is lost so I have to recreate every single time. When I rerun an analysis I cannot overwrite the layer so I have to make a new one.  That new one needs all new symbols, filters, etc plus I have to remember to go set the security and delete the old one. You can not sort on a custom expression or use it for symbols (must create it in 2 places). All these issues make it much less useful. Total wishful thinking but these tools just being live time would be sweet. Also seen several bugs with Charts that I posted earlier. Thanks ... View more

If I add a chart chose chart from a related table then set the Chart and Label field Say OK Click cog wheel to config and the Chart field always go back to the first Field in the list. Is this a bug or something?  Why does it keep going back?  Set Open back up Thanks ... View more

I have a simple one to many join between a AGO table and a HFS.  Works great but it is static.  I would like it to update as new data gets added to the table automatically. The rerun analysis button helps a little but it is a manual step to click.  Plus the real pain is when you rerun it you must create a new layer - you cannot just replace the layer so you end up with v2, v3, etc. Then I also have to go in and set the security on the new layer also.   I really wish it would just overwrite. So is there a way to do relate instead, or have it update on a regular interval, or any other ways?  Again all I want is the field level join between the table and HFS to stay up to date.   Thanks ...

I have a HFS that has a few tables in it.  I am having issues finding a way to show and share the tables in ArcMap. If you do a Add Data -> From AGO then search and add it will add all layers but not the tables. If you do a File -> Add Data from AGO then search and add it will add all layers but not the tables. If you go into Catalog and go to My Hosted Services and add it will add the tables.  But you can only do that if you are the owner of the service - which most are not. If you do get the tables in ArcMap then the next hurdle is layer files ignore tables for some reason. So if I add the entire HFS then make a layer file from the HFS it will save out all the layers except the tables. You can also not highlight a layer and a table at the same time to try and make a layer file.   You can also not make a layer file of a table. So my question is how am I supposed to be able to share HFS tables with others?? It does seem like I can do a join the table to a layer then save that out. Any ideas or tips? thanks ... View more
