For me publishing textured mesh from drone2map to AGOL does not work.  The mesh appears perfectly on the drone2map map display, and when I click the option to share the scenelayer to my AGOL organization it appears to work.  However when I try to view the scenelayer from AGOL in scene viewer it appears in the legend, and zooms to the correct location on the map, but the 3D textured mesh does not display.  Assuming this is supposed to work presently, are there any tips to get it working? ...

I have great imagery from a dji inspire for a small site.  My images that are very orthogonal to the ground produce a 3D surface in drone2map, but as you might expect zooming in the sides of buildings are not textured very well compared to roof tops.  When I include drone images with a more oblique angle view to get building sides, the resulting drone2map 3D mesh is completely garbled.  Is there a specific document describing optimal flight plan and orthogonal vs oblique views in order to produce optimal maps and models, or different settings in drone2map to get my images to produce a great 3D textured surface? ...

When I add multiple scene layers at page load, they frequently do not display properly.  For example adding 2 floor plans, and a building exterior like: map.add(sceneLayer1); map.add(sceneLayer2); map.add(sceneLayer3); ... frequently textures on one or more SceneLayer do not display.  If I set up timers to load the layers at different times then it works.  Toggling layers off/on after the page has loaded mostly works, but is flakey and seems to depend on the order in which I turn layers on/off. Any ideas how to properly load multiple SceneLayers so that they all display properly? Thanks! ... View more

I can see how to add 2d symbols for points on a graphics layer using SimpleMarkerSymbol but is it possible to add 3D symbols for points on graphics layer (not feature layer) using: var symbol = new PointSymbol3D({   symbolLayers: [new ObjectSymbol3DLayer({     width: 5     //width of object in meters     height: 10,  //height of object in meters     depth: 15,   //depth in meters     resource: { primitive: "cube" },     material: { color: "red" }   })] }); ...

I am following the example to add a point to a 3D map found here; https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/beta/sample-code/3d/add-graphics/ ... and the example works great for adding a point graphic to the map in London. But I cannot change the location of the graphic that gets added. For example, I need to change the point to appear in Minnesota USA,  not London.  So I change the XY in the example from London to US like this: var point = new Point({ x: -94.15011, y: 45.55305, z: 1500 }), ... but the point will not appear on the 3D map. It appears on the 2D map in the right spot. The problem appears to be the Z value. The only value that seems to work is 30000, and that puts the point up in the upper atmosphere. No other value for Z will display the point. Can anyone help me understand where I am going wrong?  It must be simple I am sure! Thank you!! ... View more

Today when I open ArcGIS Pro and set the basemap to openstreetmap it will not display.  Yesterday and earlier this week it worked fine.  Other basemaps work fine.  Openstreetmap basemap works in the ArcGIS Online web viewer.  Anyone else having problems with the openstreetmap basemap in pro today? ...

How can I repeat a task on a timer in ArcGIS Pro? Specifically, I would like to refresh a XY event layer automatically on a timeslot, such as once every 10 seconds. Thanks! ... View more
