Hi @JosephChampagne , Thanks for the post! I can confirm your theory that this issue is map series related. The key is applying a leader line to an Extent Indicator that belongs to the same map frame that is driving the map series.  Leader lines work fine when used with other map frames that are not driving the map series. In my example below the Leader controls in the Element pane are disabled, however, you can still add a leader line from the Extent Indicator element context menu off the Contents pane (circled in green on the left side of the screenshot below).  However, you will still be unable to format the leader while the map frame with the Extent Indicator defines a map series.  You will need to set Map Series to None (it is not enough to disable the map series), set the line format, and then recreate the map series. In my opinion the disabled state for the Leader in the Extent Indicator Element pane is a bug. Unfortunately, our test scenarios focused on Extent Indicators on other map fames and not the one driving the map series.  Thanks again for helping us identify a gap in our testing. Tom ...

Hi @AdamFenner,  I'm not aware of any known case concerning the issue concerning the crash.  I have not run across anything like what you describe in my own testing with map series.  We would need to see the crash dump and the steps needed to reproduce the issue.   The problem you are running into may be specific to your data/workflow. Can you contact Esri Support? They are better equipped to handle troubleshooting steps and gather bug data. They can be contacted at https://support.esri.com/en/contact-tech-support. Concerning the reappearing legend item I think you are running into a known issue - BUG-000181233. This fix should be available with 3.6.1. Hopefully, whatever internet issue you are currently running into is resolved and you can install the service patch. This should solve the legend issue. Hope this helps, Tom ... View more

Hi @DrewC  Sorry to hear you're running into these issues. It appears there are two different bugs. 1. Layers within a map being used in a map series having a page query are not drawing as expected after making edits, or changing the visibility of the map series index layer. 2. Export never finishes after spending a significant amount of time editing Also, these issues are regressions with version 3.6.  I'm not aware of any specific known issues that would effect either scenario.  I haven't run across anything like this with my own testing.  Without more details on your workflow, such as how many and what kind of layers do you have in your map series? What kind of editing were you doing on the index layer?  Were the edits committed before you were seeing the issue? What exactly were you exporting, a map view or a layout view? Were you exporting the map series that you were experiencing the first issue with? Can you contact Esri Support? They are better equipped to handle troubleshooting steps and gather bug data.

Hi @GabrielScarcella  You are most likely running into BUG-000181135. The fix for this issue is available with the 3.6.2 patch. Tom ... View more

Hi @MichaelWen_Timmons  Sorry that you're running into an issue. I don't recall any specific issues with version 2.9 and dynamic legends. Unfortunately, without knowing what kind of layers are in your legend and the extent of your map frame it is impossible to troubleshoot this issue.

Hi @galiGIS  There is no way to do this through the UI.  You can do this using python as @DuncanHornby helpfully shows. Tom ... View more

Hi @MarcelSt-Germain  I am unaware of any changes made to grid tick placement that would cause this. In my many years of testing grids in both ArcMap and ArcGIS Pro I've never seen ticks draw outside of the map frame with a positive offset. I cannot recall any previous issues, or any current issue, regarding this either. Unfortunately, your screenshots do not show the properties of the ticks. They seem to show properties of grid labels.  You say you are using a "template". I'm assuming that by "template" you mean grid style.  There could be an issue with Pro's interpretation of the properties within your "template" or style. Can you contact Esri Support?

Hi @JTForrest  Currently, this cannot be done without creating a separate map as @Eugene_Adkins points out in his reply. We are currently working on new map frame functionality that will support your scenario.  This is listed in the ArcGIS Pro Roadmap. We hope to have this out this year, possibly as early as 3.7.  Hope this helps, Tom ... View more

Hi @magenta744  When you say map extents are generated in FME I'm assuming that this process is creating features that are used in a Spatial Map Series.  If so, what extent do you get if you select one of the features (map series pages) that is problematic and use zoom to selection command?  If you get the same unwanted extent then the issue is not with the Layout/Map Series. The problem is deeper in the code stack, perhaps with how Pro handles these extents or it could be an issue with how the data is created. If the problem is only reproducible with a Map Series then it likely a Layout-related bug.  I'm not familiar with any existing issues of this nature. Can you contact Esri Support?
