I bought the same computer for home, and have ArcGIS Pro installed on that too.  This is an awesome computer, and I have never had an issue with it either. ... View more

Jayanta: Thanks for your help and suggestions.  I believe this worked...for some reason I must have been using a quick start type StoryMap template, and it wasn't offering me the options that your suggestions have.  But now I'm able to see the options and can edit and make it work.  I just have to learn more about it now to get better and creating a StoryMap on-the-fly as it were. Thanks again ... View more

Kory: Thanks for the suggestion...this helps.  I thought about a definition query but was wondering how much that might slow down the process when one creates dozens of them from one feature class.  So at least I now know I'm not missing something major 😆.  However, it's not like my data is a huge drain on the system either, so I'm sure definition queries will work well.  I was just hoping that there would have been a built-in function (of which I was not yet aware) that would be able to handle this in ArcGIS Pro 😁.  Perhaps one day I guess. The only other alternative would be for me to add dozens of separate feature classes in our enterprise geodatabase, but that just causes a lot of unnecessary clutter...so I think the definition query is probably the best way to go. Thanks for clarifying though...it's always great to get the opinions from others who have more experience with this than I do. ... View more

I think I'm more impressed that this question has been asked several times over the past 9 years 😆. Thanks for the responses though...at least I know I'm not asking for something silly 🤔 ... View more

I'm using ArcGIS Pro 2.7, and have a request from a user that has me stumped. I have a single feature class that has been symbolized by unique attribute values.  However, the user wants to be able to toggle the individual attributes on and off, much like they do when they toggle a feature class on and off. Is it possible to be able to toggle the symbolized items on and off in ArcGIS Pro?  The only way I seem to be able to do this would be to enter separate feature classes in our geodatabase for each feature, but in this example that would mean adding 28 separate feature classes just so the user can turn them on and off during a discussion/meeting. I'm just curious if ArcGIS Pro will allow me to set up a feature class to function this way. Thanks. ... View more

Sam: Thanks for the response...most appreciated.  I haven't yet tried to publish each of these 5 layers individually, but I do have one map that only has the problem layer as a part of that map's service.  Whenever the problem starts it seems to do it in all of the map services though. The odd thing though is that when I republish I don't have to change anything in these map services...they all return as intended (i.e. even though I get the warning when overwriting a map service that my popups will be affected, nothing ever seems to happen to them after republishing).  It's either something new in 10.8.1, or this is very abnormal behavior...I don't know yet. What I mean by customized popup is that for a feature class that has no significant database attributes I simply customize the information in Portal so when the user does indeed click on the polygon they at least see something that is more meaningful than OBJECT ID, SHAPE, etc.     So in this case, when the user clicks on this area they will see something meaningful (I just find it easier to do this than to update fields in our geodatabase): This is also the layer that is causing me grief.  Sometimes it shows up (like it does now), and other times it's the only layer of the 5 in this map service that doesn't show up.  But if it's the customized popup that is now causing the problem, then updating the attributes in the feature class would be an option.  I would first like to determine what is causing this problem though 😎.   ...

Noah: I will have to check this the next time I'm reviewing my web maps (still on vacation), but this is a pretty good troubleshooting suggestion, and definitely worth exploring. Thanks ... View more

Aaron: Admittedly, none of this is my forte and I'm struggling to start.  How does one edit the oauth2.js file so that changes will be reflected in the Portal log in screen?  If I can learn what needs to be edited by making a small change and seeing that reflected in the login window I can then start to add HTML code to enhance our Portal login experience.  Ideally, something like this would be perfect for our organization: I have tried to edit this file (using Notepad++) to make a minute/subtle change to see if this works (i.e. if I could get that to work then I would know that I'm at least dealing with the correct .js file), but none of my changes made any difference. Suggestions? (and don't say take a Javascript course as that's too obvious LOL). Thanks ... View more

Elliot: Thanks for the info...this certainly helps us acquire a better understanding of what to expect in the future.  We don't have a massive Portal yet, but it will continue to grow, so with that in mind our upgrade expectations should be more congruent with the size of our Portal. ... View more

Sorry about the late reply...my posts were all going to the wrong place.  I upgraded from ArcGIS Enterprise 10.6.1 to 10.8.1, and the process today took just under 2 hours. ... View more

Thanks Travis: Apparently all of my replies were not coming here...the new format must have confused me :-).  This certainly helps me acquire a better understanding of what I'm doing when I upgrade. ... View more
