Hi Uma, It sounds like I'll have to take that into consideration regarding tool activation, and I'll just notify users of the crash fix in 2.6.  Thanks for the info! Tim ... View more

Hi Uma, For a simple test, I've got a simple standalone table, and my button is just generating a new chart for the table with each click. The table must be named test_data.  My add-in has a button with complete code below. using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using ArcGIS.Core.CIM; using ArcGIS.Desktop.Editing; using ArcGIS.Desktop.Framework.Contracts; using ArcGIS.Desktop.Framework.Threading.Tasks; using ArcGIS.Desktop.Mapping; namespace WRAP_Display { internal class TestButton : Button { private async void CreateLineChartExample(StandaloneTable table) { var def = await QueuedTask.Run(() => { return table.GetDefinition(); }); var chart = new CIMChart(); var xAxis = new CIMChartAxis { Title = "X-Axis" }; var yAxis = new CIMChartAxis { Title = "Y-Axis" }; chart.Axes = new CIMChartAxis[] { xAxis, yAxis }; var title = "Chart " + DateTime.Now.Ticks.ToString(); chart.Name = title; chart.GeneralProperties = new CIMChartGeneralProperties { Title = title }; var lineSeries = new CIMChartLineSeries { Fields = new string[] { "x", "y" }, Name = "Line Chart Series1" }; chart.Series = new CIMChartSeries[] { lineSeries }; List<CIMChart> updated_charts = new List<CIMChart>(); var charts = def.Charts; if (charts != null) updated_charts.AddRange(charts); updated_charts.Add(chart); def.Charts = updated_charts.ToArray(); await QueuedTask.Run(() => { table.SetDefinition(def); }); } protected override void OnClick() { StandaloneTable table = MapView.Active.Map.FindStandaloneTables("test_data").FirstOrDefault(); CreateLineChartExample(table); } } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ I placed sample data (a .gdb and a .mapx)  here: sample_data.zip - Box  The sample data is just a file geodatabase table with x and y fields, repeated below in CSV format in case you don't want to or can't get the zip.  If you import it, name it test_data. x,y 1,4 2,2 3,4 I'm on current Windows 10, ArcGIS Pro 2.5.0, default Python environment, and no other add-ins except for this one that I am developing.  Nothing else in the add-in is listening to events or otherwise messing with the GUI unless invoked via button click. Below is a link to a video illustrating the problem. I click the test button, and even though it creates a chart, no charts appear under the test_data table. When I right-click the table to make a new chart, suddenly the first chart appears. When I click the test button two more times, two additional charts are not visible. When I right-click the table to make a new chart again, the two additional charts are now visible. 2020-04-22_11-42-24  I would like the chart to be visible under the table when the button finishes adding the chart to the table definition. Also, my next question will be how to show the chart pane after the chart is added, though I haven't fully researched how to do that yet. I didn't find anything in searching the documentation, so I was going to poke around in debug mode a bit. Thanks! Tim ... View more

According to ProConcepts Framework: "You should never use the Wait method on a GUI thread." The code below worked for me. protected override void OnClick() { var layer = MapView.Active.Map.GetLayersAsFlattenedList().OfType<FeatureLayer>().FirstOrDefault(); CreateLineChartExample(layer); }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ I'm having another problem, where after the first chart is added, if I execute the code again (with a different unique chart name), the table of contents isn't refreshed to show the second (and third, and fourth, and fifth...) chart. But that's a problem for another thread. ... View more

Hi Stephen and Karen, I tried the code exactly as above, except I swapped in my own fields (both are number fields) on line 34. The code hangs when calling SetDefinition on line 42. I'm on Pro 2.5.0.  I'm calling CreateLineChartExample within a Button's OnClick event.  var t = QueuedTask.Run(() => CreateLineChartExample(layer)); t.Wait();‍‍ I can also call the function asynchronously, which makes Pro responsive again, but no chart ever appears.  Did you have to do anything else to make this work? ...

Actually, brushing is not only not required, but is avoided. The user may want to show different time ranges in each plot, and would thus not want previously generated plots to be automatically updated to reflect whatever selection was on the table. ... View more

+1 for charting functionality in Pro via the SDK! I am porting an ArcMap add-in to Pro. In ArcMap, a user could click a feature in the map to create a plot from data in a related time series table (standalone table in the map). If the user clicked another feature, a second line would be added to the same graph if it was still visible.  And so on. Another tool would generate a separate graph for each selected feature in a layer. If a unique value renderer is applied to the feature layer, the graphed line shows up as the same color as the feature. No brushing capabilities (e.g., selecting a data point in the graph will also select the related time series row) are required. I shipped a template tee chart (*.tee) in the add-in file to set a lot of default properties for the appearance of the chart, so that I only had to deal with minimal adjustments in the code. Thanks, Stephen, for initiating this Idea! ... View more

I put it in the .cs file for the gallery.         private bool _isInitialized;         protected override void OnDropDownOpened()         {             Initialize();         }         private void Initialize()         {             if (_isInitialized)                 return;             // Code to add your gallery items...             // Items added. Now wrap up.             AlwaysFireOnClick = true;  // Required so you can click a gallery item again that you had clicked last time             _isInitialized = true;         } ... View more
