Use the Locate button in ArcGIS Pro to configure the Feature Search     In the Field Map search results list it will show the attribute that is defined as the default for the layers display field.   ... View more

using Attribute Rules you could do something along the lines of this: var pole = FeatureSetbyName($datastore,"points",["Name"]) var line = buffer($feature,.1) var ab = Intersects(pole, line) var line_name = '' for (var a in ab){ var pole_name = DomainName(a, "Name") line_name += pole_name +'-'} return left(line_name, count(line_name)-1); You could also calculate the values after the fact, if you are not able to use attribute rules (e.x. using ArcGIS Online Hosted Feature Layers) The is what it looks like labeling the created features in ArcGIS Pro   ...

The basemap service has what I refer to as an internal style.  I call it an internal style as this is the style that gets put into a .vtpk when you take the tiles offline.   The other tile styles are external to the service.   The system can use these external styles with the .vtpk when taken offline.   If you use the .vtpk by itself the internal style will be used for rendering.  When used as part of a map with reference to the external styling in place the tiles will draw with the desired styling. for Example with this tile layer  https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=8e848d9302e84dcba0de7aff8ac429dc     You can use  https://cdn.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items/8e848d9302e84dcba0de7aff8ac429dc/resources/export?f=zip  to get a resource.zip file that contains the dark streetmap styling.  Notice the item ID is the same in both URLs. If we look at a map area that has been taken offline we get the following content. If we look at the .mmap we can see that for the basemap it has an itemPath referencing the folder with the resources.zip file (the Night styling)   Applications can show the desired styling when the itemPath is present with the resources.zip ...

Its a question of the needed quality or resolution of imagery.   Using Create Map Tile Package geoprocessing tool to create the TPKX the the Tiling Format  Level of Detail and compression quality will determine the resulting file size.   As an example I started with a TIFF image it has a source resolution of 1:288   The Tiff image is roughly 300x300 meters   The file size with pyramids is 60 mb If I create a TPKX using JPEG Tiling scheme Level of Detail 1-20 and Compression 75 the resulting TPKX is 11.3 megabytes   If I create the same setting compression to 20 the resulting file size is 6.2 megabytes.  At scale of 1:288 hardly noticeable difference. going further I can reduce level of detail to 19, this results in file size of 3.8 megabytes,  we can see a difference in quality of display at the source scale. At this point its a matter of how good the data needs to appear to get the desired work done.   For example Level of detail 18 compression 20 the file size is 2.8 mb at source scale appears like this. at 1:1099 it looks like this.   Use the JPEG tiling format and experiment with the level of detail and compression to get the needed quality.                 ...

The basemap data needs to be in the same coordinate system of the map.   If you  are using .TPKX or .VTPK this is the reason.   Operational feature layers, the transit stops pictured above, do not need to be in the same coordinate system as the map to display.  The operational feature layers can 'project on the fly.'   Note: In ArcGIS Pro the map coordinate system is set to the coordinate system of the first operational layer that you add  to the map.   Also ArcGIS Pro can display all layers in any coordinate system, while Field Maps (The ArcGIS Runtime) cannot.  Specifically, raster date (imagery), TPKX and VTPK cannot be projected on the fly.  This data can only display in the coordinate system that it is in.  In the picture above the TPKX data is in WGS 1984 Web Mercator (auxillary sphere)  The map must be changed to this coordinate system for it to display in field maps. (or any ArcGIS Runtime App). ... View more
