correct, I fixed my response. Long day. sorry. ... View more

fc  = str(sys.argv[1]) templine = fc + "_line_temp" workspace = os.path.dirname(fc) This was the part I was trying to get at. The object being used as the env for edits. If you try to find attributes for the obj that you have set as the edit env, you wont. The method above is setting the edit on a simple string path referencing the GDB. All of the work arounds have been successful using the edit with a string. This method works great. ... View more

Still a litle confused about the env object. env = EnvVar() I assume you are setting this within a function you created. Need to look at that. ... View more

I might even suggest not setting the edit session inside of the search. Set variable outside for search, and then call the session and then establish your search loop/update. Again, another thought. ... View more

First thought, not a solution yet, but you do need to nest your actual edits inside the edit sessions. I think its ok to have a search outside, but if there are updates, they need to go inside the operation. Riyas Deen suggests this already. Just wanted to stress that at minimum it should be considered. I am looking into edits with topology feature datasets. ... View more

Could you post the part of your code where you set the environement/workspace? I would like to look at that part. Just to get more clarity on the situation. The error is telling me that there is an issue there. An issue that says the object you have set does not work in an edit session. ... View more

First off, can I just ask what the error might be. When the python window is open. ... View more

Hi Adina, I am going to help you work through this. I am just saw this cross my screen and want to take a look at this later. So currently this does not help you, but I will come back and assist. Promise! I have done similar work with python add ins in the past. I can share my technique with combobox and data driven pages. ... View more

I would have to suggest pyscripter. ... View more

Johannes Bierer wrote: I wrote a python script that copies image raster files selected through a defined polygon to another folder. It works quite well with few tiles, but with a larger amount I get the following message? "UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xfc' in position 4: ordinal not in range(128)" What does this mean? This is the error. But, does it provide you with the line number for where the crash occurs? Traceback. We can see the character that is not capable of passing through. There may be more than this. ... View more

Here is a tool you can use Hayley. It has 3 parameters: Path for table/fc ParkID Field UniqueID Field It can be batched if needed. Please feel free to open it up and look at the guts of it, and don't hesitate to ask anything. Will Need to export it; I have imported it. Of course that goes for anybody else that wants to use it too. Ex. of prints. Should see in geoproc.: ...Unique ID S0029_010 added for S Value IS NULL, Empty String, OR UNKNOWN Value IS NULL, Empty String, OR UNKNOWN Value IS NULL, Empty String, OR UNKNOWN Value IS NULL, Empty String, OR UNKNOWN 0034 ...Value IS GOOD {'Q': 10, ' ': 1, 'S': 10, 'R': 1} 0034  ...Unique ID  0034_001 added for  T0035 ...Value IS GOOD {'Q': 10, ' ': 1, 'S': 10, 'R': 1, 'T': 1} T0035 T ...Unique ID T0035_001 added for T I am determined to make this work. So let me know if i have not accounted for something and share the error. Thanks, Todd ... View more

Hey Hayley, I am currently writing a tool you could run. It expands on Christopher's input for using Dictionaries. Brilliant input. You may have already worked this out, but I will complete it anyway. ... View more

Of course it is just a guess without having the raster images. I wonder if these rasters were made with some other software not ArcGIS. I would guess that if they were created using ArcGIS that it might not throw this issue. Something is encoded with a different codec. ... View more

Hi Håvard, Would like to investigate your task a little further. Could you post what the arcpy call to the Merge_managment as you have it? I can't recall this exact behavior, but know that it is tedious working with the Merge. It is quite possible an issue with the field mapping. I also found that this was better designed to use a model, but it can be work in a script. Just needs more 'TLC' given the Field Mapping part. When you run it in Arc Map; just make sure there are no Queries. Just always a second thought sometimes; or even Selections on the data. ... View more
