Hey Dave, I just used the map series python script tools that Tom linked to, and it worked. I don't have any images in my layouts.  ... View more

Hey Tom,  The colon is part of the page name. I tried saving to a new location and saving to a new aprx. Those steps didn't help. I will just split the pages in Acrobat for now. Thanks! ... View more

OK. Thank you. I found that the error only happens when I chose to export multiple PDFs with the page name as suffix. I can export as a single file and then split each page out to a new PDF.  ... View more

I'm having the same issue, and now I can't even export at all. It's saying that the PDF (which hasn't been exported yet) is open in another program. What is the BUG number on this so we can escalate? I can't wait around for another patch to export floor plan maps for first responders.  ... View more

And now it won't export at all. It's saying that the PDF (which does not exist yet) is open in another program. There aren't any other programs open. This issue persists after restarting the computer. I'm trying to export school floor plan maps for our city's first responders, so this is pretty critical.  ... View more

The problem I'm having now is that the script is skipping over the first couple of dozen feature classes and I'm not sure why. I'm able to load these features into a map with no problems. There is no difference in the naming conventions. The features being skipped are like "ABERNETHY_room_1_grid", and the first ones the script iterates through are like "AINSWORTH_room_1_grid." Some of the ones being skipped were copied from another geodatabase, but there is nothing outwardly wrong with them. Is there a method to examine features in a geodatabase for errors? ... View more

They're at the root level. So it's working now. I changed the name of the Default gdb to "grids_org." Not sure if that was the issue. Here is my script: import os, datetime, re import sys import arcpy from arcpy import env from datetime import date, timedelta date_obj = date.today() date_string = date_obj.strftime("%Y%m%d") memory_hole = r'memory\\' output_gdb = r"C:\\Temp\\ReEntry_Capacity\\merged_grids.gdb" input_gdb = r"C:\\Temp\\ReEntry_Capacity\\grids_org.gdb" arcpy.env.workspace = input_gdb arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True featureclasses = arcpy.ListFeatureClasses() for fc in featureclasses: start_time = time.time() capacity = arcpy.GetCount_management(fc) room = re.search(r"(?<=_room_).*?(?=_grid)",fc, flags=0) site = re.search(r".+?(?=_room_)",fc, flags=0) ##"([^_room_]+)*" roomNum = room.group(0) siteName = site.group(0) grid_buffer_dissolve = memory_hole + siteName + "_room_" + roomNum + "_buffdiss" print(siteName + " room " + roomNum) arcpy.analysis.Buffer(fc, grid_buffer_dissolve, "-0.01 Feet", "", "", "ALL", None, "PLANAR") arcpy.AddField_management(grid_buffer_dissolve, "Site", "TEXT") arcpy.CalculateField_management(grid_buffer_dissolve, "Site", '"' + siteName + '"') arcpy.AddField_management(grid_buffer_dissolve, "RoomNumber", "TEXT") arcpy.CalculateField_management(grid_buffer_dissolve, "RoomNumber", '"' + roomNum + '"') arcpy.AddField_management(grid_buffer_dissolve, "Count", "SHORT") arcpy.CalculateField_management(grid_buffer_dissolve, "Count", capacity) arcpy.Append_management(grid_buffer_dissolve,output_gdb + '\\capacity_grids',"NO_TEST") elapsed_time_secs = time.time() - start_time msg = "Execution time: %s" % timedelta(seconds=round(elapsed_time_secs)) print(msg) ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ...

I was able to copy over several dozen without an issue. I tried compacting and compressing the gdb, but that didn't help. I'll try rebooting. The gdb is named "Default", because I was using the project default for temporary storage.  ... View more

Sorry I didn't mention that these are polygon grids created with the generate tessellations tool.   ... View more

I am getting the count that way. I just figured out the issue. I still had a dissolve tool in my script right after the buffer tool that I forgot to delete. Facepalm.  Thanks guys! ... View more

So this works perfectly when I run the tool manually in Pro, but when I export it as a python script from the geoprocessing history and run it, it outputs the dissolved outline. I've tried changing the parameters and it's still just making the outline: arcpy.analysis.Buffer(fc, grid_buffer_dissolve, "-0.01 Feet", "", "", "NONE", None, "PLANAR")‍ I need to script this to dissolve thousands of these and append them to a single feature class.  ...

Ah, OK. Thanks!  ... View more
