Colin Ricks response a few above mine listed the BUG number (BUG-000113336) and some info from Esri Support.  I don't have too much information about it other than it was reproducible by Esri, was marked HIGH in severity, and tested at 10.4.1, 10.5, 10.5.1, 10.6 clean installs.  Wish I had more to tell you. ...

Sorry - correction to my last response.  The internal help redirected to the 2.2 help.  According to What's New at 2.3 - "Upgraded annotation can be packaged in Mobile Map Packages" - so yes! ... View more

In reviewing the AGP 2.3 (internal) Help Doc, topology, annotation, and route layers are not supported in *.mmpk's.  As Mark referenced above, it's a known enhancement request - not sure where it falls in the Dev process though. ... View more

Gabriel - in researching the WARNING 000117 error message, I found a few things that would cause the error. The data being intersected was not on a local disk rather an external disk drive. How many layers are being intersected?  10?  20?  50?  If many layers are being interested, consider using the Merge GP tool to merge them into one layer for the Intersect GP tool. Sometimes the data is bad and can be fixed using the Run Check Geometry GP tool.  Based upon the output, resolve the error(s) and then run the Intersect GP tool. What type of geodatabase are you using - single or multiuser?  There may be a related BUG. Were there any feature selected when you ran the Intersect GP tool? I have not used Intersect vs. Pairwise Intersect before but there is a good description in the Help that compares the two GP tools.  In reviewing the Help, I don't think it's common for the Intersect and Pairwise Intersect to have the same number of features in the output.  Pairwise will have considerably less. Hope this helps! ... View more

I wonder if creating a Script tool for ArcGIS Pro would be a possible avenue to explore? ... View more

The current "What's New at 2.3 ArcGIS Pro" is currently INTERNAL only and will be made public upon the release of AGP 2.3.  I have not worked with AGP 2.3 BETA and will download the new app upon release. ... View more

Thomas - from what I'm reading of "What's New in 2.3 ArcGIS Pro", there will be 24 new random color schemes from ArcMap added to ArcGIS Colors to improve upon the random symbology issues.  I believe AGP 2.3 is listed for a Q1 2019 release time frame. ... View more

Hi Josh - this is a known limitation when one upgrades annotation to AGP annotation. There is a workaround you might consider in order to use it in ArcMap and eventually republish to map services. ... View more

Hi Brian - so to do this in the Catalog window in ArcMap, under Database Servers, click "Add Database Server."  When the User Interface opens, enter the hostname of your Database Server.  To find this out, click the Windows search, open a Command Prompt, and type hostname at the C: prompt in DOS.  This is the name of your database server.  Enter that name in the Database Server box in ArcMap and click OK.  Now you have a connection to your SQL Server Express instance (i.e. myserver/sqlexpress).  Right click on the new connection and select New Geodatabase.  Enter the necessary name and size.  Click OK.  Voila!  Desktop SDE geodatabase created for SQL Server Express. ...

Hi Brian - so with Desktop SDE geodatabases in ArcMap with an Advanced license, one could right click in the Database Servers portion of the Catalog Window and create/manage/administer a SQL Server Express geodatabase.  This did not require an *.ecp file to do so.  To create a Workgroup or Enterprise SDE geodatabase, then you do need a *.ecp file to create.  In AGP, I don't see the Database Server area in the Catalog Pane.  So an experiment to try, create the Desktop SDE geodatabase using the ArcMap Catalog window.  Then go into AGP and see if you can make a connection to the newly created geodatabase.  What is your result? ...

For Workgroup SQL Server Express Geodatabases, correct it does require the purchase of ArcGIS Enterprise (Workgroup).  I'm researching currently an Advanced license of ArcGIS Pro (like in ArcMap), does allow for the creation of SQL Server Express geodatabases created and managed in AGP and does not require an additional expense.  More to come. ...
