Hi, Is there any plans to update the measure tool to also allow decimal minutes as a location format? Currently it has decimal degrees and degrees, minutes, seconds. Decimal minutes is a very popular format we use in regulations and it would be great to have this option in the basic map viewer. I see it is available in the coordinate conversion widget but in using the basic map viewer application template I don't see a way to show decimal minute coordinates. Is there a work around or current option I'm missing? Thanks in advance, Kathy

Thanks Owen Evans, That is good to know on the best practice for web design. I wasn't thinking about that in relation to the subtitles but it does make sense. Because of our cover photo the minimal design option really doesn't work but I think we will do as you suggest and just add paragraph text/button below the title slide for the .pdf download. Thanks for your time!, Kathy

Hi, I've been asked to create a digital version of a published book our Department recently released. We would like to have a hyperlink to be able to download the published .pdf version of the book. Will the ability to add a hyperlink in the subtitle be included in the future release? Thanks, Kathy

Hi, I've had this happen now twice this morning alone after making a number of edits my feature class is now corrupt again! I'm currently using ArcGIS Pro 2.4.0 and I have a feature class from a file geodatabase. I've been making edits which has went fine until I try and delete fields. It worked fine to delete one field but when I clicked to delete another field it starts popping up all these errors and closes out the file. The feature class is now corrupt and I get the message "Failed to load data. Error: FDO error: -2147024894 FDO error: -2147024894". I've had this happen several times over the past few months where deleting fields corrupts the file. Why is this? It is very frustrating. While I did make a backup of the data (I forgot it had a definition query on it, so essentially my latest edits are gone). This seems like a very repeatable error/bug. Has this already been reported? Thanks, Kathy

Hi, I just started using the new Story Maps and I noticed in the maps that are added you now have to click on the 'plus'/'minus' to zoom in and out compared to the classic that allow you to use the mouse for this functionality. Having to use the plus/minus symbols is cumbersome. Will this functionality be brought forward? Thank-you, Kathy

Hi, I'm posting this question for a coworker. Using ESRI JavaScript API 4.12, based on the Intro to graphics - 4.12 example here: (https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/sample-code/intro-graphics/index.html) my coworker is creating temporary HTML files that are loaded in a .Net Windows Form web browser control to view coordinates as they are entered into the application. The map renders fine, can zoom in out with the mouse wheel/+ or – controls but we cannot click and hold the left mouse button to move the map in the control. Is there a function or setting that needs to be set to allow this? Thanks in advance, Kathy

Hi David Coley‌ and Nataliya Lys‌, I was wondering if you ever figured out why your registered ArcGIS Services were allowing the option for file geodabase downloads? I need to register some more of our rest services in AGOL/Open Data and would really love the option for file geodatabase downloads without having to post a file geodatabase for it to link to. I had read on another post and wondered if the ability that you are seeing for certain services that enable file geodabase download is because the service was published to have feature access capabilities and data export enabled? If yes, is the data for your service coming from an enterprise database or file database? I was hoping the enhancement would have been resolved. Thanks, Kathy

I'm wondering if in this case if I just need to create a new content item in AGOL with our rest service and basically copy/paste the info (description and other) from the hosted AGOL layer and then delete the hosted feature service. It seems cumbersome but that is seeming like the solution in my case. Thanks

ok, that makes sense. One thing is the person that originally published the layers from ArcMap had separate map services which I guess differs from the current ArcGIS Server rest service which has 6 layers within one map service. In ArcGIS Pro I can just add a url for a single layer within the map service but in ArcMap when I add the rest service url I don't have the option for a specific layer and can only turn off/turn on in ArcMap. This seems problematic in overwriting the individual hosted feature layers. Can I overwrite the hosted AGOL feature services from ArcGIS Pro if they were originally published from ArcMap or ArcMap only? Thank-you!

Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to update the url of a hosted feature layer in AGOL that is shared on Open Data. The feature layer was originally published thru ArcMap to AGOL but I now would like to update the url with a service from our ArcGIS Server. When I look in the settings options for the hosted feature layer I don't see the option to update the url like I do with other items. I've also tried to update the registered service url using the ArcGIS Online Assistant. It lets me add in the url but when I click update and check the url it reverts back to the hosted AGOL url. I believe because the data was originally uploaded thru ArcMap that I may need to overwrite the service thru ArcMap but I'm a bit confused on how I would now point the AGOL url to that of our ArcGIS Service url thru ArcMap. I would rather not completely remove the item from AGOL and have to re-populate all the descriptions and settings in Open Data since this is pretty time intensive and doesn't seem like it should be necessary. Hopefully there is an easy solution I am missing. Thanks in advance, Kathy

Hi Rachel Laqua and Kelly Hutchins, I would really like to modify the selection color in the Story Map series template and at this time we are not planning to host on our network but would prefer to leave it all on AGOL. I've looked around in settings but don't see any options for modifying the selection color. I didn't see anything posted on the ideas section either for updates. Thank-you!!, Kathy

I did finally get the file geodatabase links to work and I think it was just my own error of not populating the correct sub-tab, but now it works! I also added links to static maps of the data which is really a nice feature. Thanks again for your help.

Thanks Tyler Burns! That is really good to know on the logged enhancement. I did go ahead and add additional download files to the distribution tab within the metadata for that layer. I've also reset the download index in hub numerous times but have yet to see the download option for that file geodatabase actually update to show. Do you know if there is any issues/special things to do for the reset to complete to show these additional resources? Thanks so much!, Kathy

Hello, I'm trying to figure out the best practice for adding data to AGOL so that when I share it in the Open Data group the data layer download options will include a file geodatabase. In our organization, we have individual layers that were uploaded to AGOL directly so they are hosted and I have went thru the process of changing the settings for "Allow others to export to different formats" and reset the index in hub so these layers now provide the option for downloading as a file geodatabase. However I've now tried adding an item from the web using the Rest End Point (published on our local server) to create a new feature layer in AGOL and what I've noticed is the settings option "allow others to export to different formats" isn't even an option. When I share to our Open Data group, this feature layer can be downloaded as a shapefile, spreadsheet, or kml which is great but we really need the file geodatabase option. I also read on the ESRI help or similar that the file geodatabase option will only be available for hosted rest services, so I also created a service (with multiple layers) and published this service to our AGOL. When I added the individual rest endpoint for a new feature layer and shared with Open Data I still do not see the options for allow to export to different formats. What data types in AGOL will allow for the file geodatabase options in Open Data/Hub? From my current understanding the only way to allow for this is to upload each individual layer as a hosted feature service but this doesn't seem correct. Thanks for your help!, Kathy

The exported .pdf both original and the save to reduced file both looked great until they were put in the browser. Firefox might be fine because it just wants to save the .pdf but Edge was so crazy looking. Our webmaster hasn't seen that happen before and we have a lot of ArcMap exported .pdfs currently on the website but likely not too many Pro exports (yet).
