The new slice tool that came out in the latest AGO update is a great way to explore 3D data. I work with a lot of projects where Terrestrial Lidar Data has been capture for the inside and outside of structures and this tool provides a way of showing users both of these. However, the tool is difficult to direct a user to and if the Scene is being displayed in a web app you seemingly can't use this tool at all. It would be great if there was a widget created for the slice tool so i could display my 3D data in a web app and have users interactively explore using the slice tool.

I'm trying to use ArcScene to display a Terrestrial Lidar Dataset I have. The dataset includes a landscape as well as a cave system beneath the landscape. I'm looking for any examples of Terrestrial Lidar data use within ArcScene or ArcGIS online in general. I have many datasets and it would be great to find a way to display them using the ArcGIS online platform. *I'm aware I can put the point cloud directly in an ArcScene, but the amount of thinning I have to do in order to display the dataset defeats the purpose of having a dataset with this much detail (point spacing in Lidar datasets range from 5cm to .25cm. Thanks, Ben

Thanks Jake, I actually used the following code to place an image in the list widget. {ProjectName} <img alt="" src="{PictureURL}" style="height:99%; width:99%" /> ‍‍‍ I've been trying to no avail to place my {ProjectName} text on top of my image. I've tried creating a container in which to place my image and text but every time I click the code button HTML source button in the list widget, I find that my div class="container"> has been removed. Is this tag not supported?

There are two separate settings. One for the text in the dashboard (header), and one for the text in the map (popup). What happened to me is that I changed my dashboard theme from dark to light, this overrode the text color settings for my map so I had to go back and change them.

I had never touched the settings for the text color in pop-ups. What I did do was change the overall maps color settings. I had changed my dashboard colors to dark green and changed my text to white so that I could see the text in my header. For some reason changing the text to white in the dashboard properties also changed the popup setting to white text, despite the fact the the background color for the popup is white.

In the list configuration, click list, click source to open up the HTML editor. paste: <img alt="" src="{PictureURL}" style="height:99%; width:99%" /> replace the bolded text with the name of the field storing the URL.

In the map configuration, under general, check to see that your text color isn't set to white. Same thing just happened to me and this was the solution.

I have a 3D point cloud dataset created from terrestrial LiDAR. When I bring the dataset into ArcPro it displays at the 0,0 of the UTM zone. I would like to move the point cloud to its correct location. The point dataset is very dense and there are few key locations I can use as anchor points, but I can't seem to find any tools the move the location of LAS data. Is this possible to do in Arc Pro? Or does it need to be done in a LiDAR processing software Thanks, Ben

Solved: I had been opening up the "Table to Table" tool in modelbuilder and changing the output locations. When done this way, fields were changed to maintain qualified names. However, if you open up the output location variable bubble in modelbuilder, and change the location here, fields mapping was not changed. No idea why it function this way.

I have a pretty complicated model I am working on that starts out by pulling data from a SQL database using "make query table", and then creates a copy of the table using "table to table" (goes on to do many other things). My problem: I have to the tool running fine on my local drive, when I change "Table to Table" so that it is exporting to a geodatabase on a network drive it automatically changes the field mappings of "Table to Table" so that it is maintaining fully qualified field names, despite not having this environment checked. When the tool runs on my local drive it does not maintain fully qualified names (which is what i want). This change is throwing off the rest of my model. ( i checked all environment locations, I do not have "maintain fully qualified field names" checked anywhere) Any ideas on why this may happen?

Is your data frame called exactly "City of Plains View"?

Thanks, I was able to establish the ArcSDE Connection File. From my understanding this is a regular server connection and not an OLE DB Connection. I'm not a database expert (although I'm thinking of taking some DB classes), but the reason I was trying to establish an OLE DB connection is because I read it was Read-Only and users wouldn't be able to edit any tables. Is there a way to develop an ArcSDE Connection File that is read only? The database i'm connection to houses a lot of data and I don't want any chance of users being able to edit or delete anything.

I'm in the process of creating a tool in modelbuilder that pulls data from a table through an OLE DB connection and then uses it for further analysis. The model works on my computer but I plan on rolling the tool out to other staff members. I forsee a problem where other staff will go to use the tool but be unable to run it due to not having previously set up the OLE DB connection (they have access to the data server but dont have an OLE DB connection set up). I'm trying to add a step to my model that checks for the OLE DB connection and then makes the connection if doesnt already exist. I cant seem to figure out how to do this. Any advice? Thanks
