How did you register the sde connection (There are 2 ways)?  Do you have the associated folders registered as well? If you do the same function via a python tool, not a model, do you see the same results? Thanks ... View more

You can try this: # your code iQuery = ' "Name" = \'Joe Blogs\' ' print iQuery # modified code print "\"%s\" = '%s'" % ("Name", "Joe Blogs") You can substitute the Name and Value with a variable to make this more dynamic.  I would also look at the AddFieldDelimiters() in arcpy to ensure every field is formatted correctly. ...

You can find a value positions by doing the following:    itemindex=numpy.where(array==item) Then change your values. You can find the max value by doing the following: >>> from numpy import * >>> a = array([10,20,30]) >>> a.max() 30 >>> a = array([[10,50,30],[60,20,40]]) >>> a.max() 60 Hope this helps.  You can find more information about numpy by going to the scipy.org site. ...

You cannot change a symbol's color using RGB values at 10.1 or 10.0 using python.  What you could do is write a C/C++ function that calls ArcObject COM library and then use python's ctype module to call you DLL. Andrew ... View more

James, At 10.1, you can create message boxes using Python-Addins and the pythonaddin module. Check out: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#//014p00000025000000 I think a python extension might meet your needs.  Just pick the correct event to listen to, and place your logic under that event. It sounds like the event itemReordered(self, reordered_item, new_index) might be what you are looking for. ... class init and stuff def itemReordered(self, reordered_item, new_index):    pythonaddins.MessageBox('layer moved', 'INFO', 0) Hope this helps. ...

You need to call the class name for a .pyt.  So I have a python tool called 'Tool', so I pass in Tool to the name parameter.         relPath = os.path.dirname(__file__)         pyt = relPath + os.sep + "customToolbox.pyt"         pythonaddins.GPToolDialog(pyt, "Tool") # Tool is the class name Also, ensure that the .pyt is in the add-in file.  You can check that by renaming the extension .zip and examining the contents. See http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#//014p00000021000000 for more information. ... View more

You need to have the 3rd party module installed on your server, and you need to ensure it's the 64-bit version.  ArcGIS Server using python 2.7 64-bit where as the desktop version uses the 32-bit version.
