Edwin, Are you using ArcMap (ArcGIS Desktop) if you are, you can use a predefined "label style" and modify it to your liking. Here is a picture with the steps through the menus. [ATTACH=CONFIG]32328[/ATTACH] Basically you would be placing a label from your attributes on top of a symbol. at step 9 you can click OK to use that symbol behind a label, or optionally you can go to step 10 and customize further. Also at step 7, you probably want to check Scale Marker to Fit text. Also you will likely want to use placement properties, same dialog as step one and place the label on top of the point. [ATTACH=CONFIG]32327[/ATTACH] The result could look like this. [ATTACH=CONFIG]32329[/ATTACH] I attached a zip as well, so that you can view the work flow picture in full size, the inline image size limit in the forum may be too small to show the appropriate amount of detail.

Jennifer, I have not found a way to reproduce the problem that you describe. I have updated windows 7 with the latest updates from Microsoft (IE 11) and ArcGIS Explorer 2500 pans and zooms without crashing. Could this be related to the network that you are connected to? In communication with Pat external to the forum it was discovered that the problem does not occur when using a non-work internet connection. Can you determine whether the same is true for you? Mark

ArcGIS Explorer 2500 has an option for adding the Bing Key. Prior versions of ArcGIS Explorer desktop no longer support the use of Bing basemaps. [ATTACH=CONFIG]32192[/ATTACH]

Ellen, You can use this application configuration with ArcGIS Explorer 1750. In the configuration I have pointed find to the new geocode.arcgis.com service. http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=18dd446504314a918dfd8b3cf1dced47 Mark

Yes, if you are seeing the response in the browser it means that you do have access to the service that ArcGIS Explorer Desktop uses for the Find functionality. It is possible to use an application configuration and specify a different geocoding service to use for find, you aren't using an application configuration are you? It is also possible to set a local geocoding file. If you click on the drop arrow next to find, do you see any other choices? [ATTACH=CONFIG]31780[/ATTACH]

ArcGIS Explorer 2500 uses the "geocode.arcgis.com" service. This URL is the search for "redlands" http://geocode.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/GeocodeServer/findAddressCandidates?Address=redlands&SingleLine=&outFields=xmin,xmax,ymin,ymax&outSR=&searchExtent=&f=json Does it return the JSON when you click the link? [ATTACH=CONFIG]31741[/ATTACH] Could there be something on your network that is blocking access to this service? Mark

The ArcGIS online geocoding service that ArcGIS Explorer 1750 Find uses was deprecated by ArcGIS online. Find for places and addresses will no longer work in ArcGIS Explorer 1750. ArcGIS Explorer desktop 2500 uses a new ArcGIS online service that was created to replace the prior service, and it should be working. Mark

I am not sure what is going on with the groups, but you can find Explorer add ins by typing type:"explorer add in" in the search box. This URL is a copy of that search, that you can use for convenience. http://www.arcgis.com/home/search.html?q=type%3A%22explorer%20add%20in%22&t=content Mark

I have a little more clarity on this. First from reading this very thread the plan to release an updated version of ArcGIS Explorer desktop did not happen for the 10.2 ArcGIS release. At the recent Fed GIS conference Jack outlined the general plan for this year. The next release of ArcGIS Desktop software will be 10.2.2 and it will be released soon, the software certification process at Esri is underway now for it. Following the ArcGIS 10.2.2 release Jack had "ArcGIS Next" on his plenary slide, and that is planned for this year. We are planning to have ArcGIS Explorer desktop ready for release with ArcGIS Next. This is primarily a bug fix release for the ArcGIS Explorer Desktop 2500 release that you are currently using. Q3 at earliest ?? I appreciate your patience as we work towards the next release, Mark

You will need to update the basemap gallery for your organization on ArcGIS online. The ArcGIS Explorer help topic for that is located here: http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisexplorer/2500//en/ArcGIS_online_organizations.htm#

When you used this URL. http://www.arcgis.com/sharing/conten...800292340/data and NMF file was downloaded and you were able to open view the data. This shows that you have access to the ArcGIS online site and you have access to http://services.arcgisonline.com/arc...gery/MapServer (this url does not work in a browser, and that's fine, the ArcGIS software knows what to do with it). The http://ago-item-storage.s3.amazonaws.com url does not specifically work in a browser either, but you do need access to this site, if the location is blocked by a proxy server you will see the error that you sent. The ArcGIS Explorer desktop basemaps are shared with everyone, you do not need an ArcGIS online account to see and use them.

You can open a Web map in ArcGIS Explorer Desktop. Do this via the Search Window. be forewarned That webmap support in ArcGIS Explorer desktop is limited. The feature functionality of the ArcGIS online infrastructure has increased and developed rapidly and continues to do so and ArcGIS Explorer desktop will not be able to keep up with the new developments. For local data storage on ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Explorer Desktop works best with Layer Packages. Although webmaps can't make use of the layer packages.. (ArcGIS Services are the data choice if you need some thing that works well in both.) This youtube video explains the basics. http://youtu.be/cP8rKzz4qhM for working with ArcGIS Layer packages, ArcGIS Explorer desktop and ArcGIS online. -mark

This will be fixed in the next release of ArcGIS Explorer desktop. It is just taking longer to get an update out than we had originally planned. -mark

Emily, Not sure how to figure this one out. 3D shapefiles should appear in both 2D and 3D. Could it have something to do with the coordinate system? -mark

If you look at the thread over the years, I am not very good at predicting the future and the timing of the release is really out of my control. We do plan to release an updated version this year (2014). -mark
