Hi, I found the below info from ESRI technical support which has a similar example to what I want to do including the table below with start/stop lat/longs so essentially 1 start point and 1 stop point in the same row. The overall goal is similar to create lines between the start and stop points. What I'm having trouble understanding in this example is the procedure 2b only shows to 'Select the X and Y values in the X and Y Fields'. Unless I'm missing something you can only select 1 X field and 1 Y field correct? There is no mention of running the tool twice but yet the output shown below shows both the start/end points? Can someone let me know what I'm missing? Originally I was going to create start/end point feature classes but below is ideal to have the data as it is shown in the table so lines can be connected using that tool. Thanks in advance!, Kathy How To: Create connection lines between two or more points Summary The instructions provided describe how to create connection lines between two or more points in ArcMap. For example, seismic lines data spreadsheet usually consists of start and end point locations, representing the seismic lines to be shot in a survey. In ArcMap, it is possible to generate a set of lines from these points using the XY To Line tool. To ensure the lines that generated in ArcMap are accurately located, the attribute table must contain the latitude and longitude of the start and end point features, as illustrated in the example below. Procedure Follow the steps below to create connection lines between two or more points on a map. Insert the XY data into ArcMap. Select the correct coordinate system and X and Y Fields. Right-click the particular layer in the data table, and select Display XY Data. Select the X and Y values in the X and Y Fields. Click Edit to define a correct coordinate system. Click OK twice. The points are now added to the map as a layer in the Table of Contents. Save the points permanently. Right-click the event layer, and select Data > Export Data. Click the Browse button to select a location and name for the new file. Set the file type as shapefile or feature class. Click Save, and click OK. Go to ArcToolbox > Data Management Tools > Features > XY to Line. Using the new shapefile or feature class created in Step 5, enter in the Start X-coordinate field, Start Y-coordinate field, End X-coordinate field, and End Y-coordinate field of the table. Run the XY to Line tool.

Hi, Our organization had numerous ESRI licensing accounts and this year we've been merging license groups under one customer number. We are trying to figure out how to associate or transfer an AGOL user and their content to our larger group AGOL organization. We tried to invite the user via the 3rd option in the invite members but the issue it is not a public account but an account associated with an organization so it gives an error, "Your user is already associated with another organization. You cannot join this one." How can we transfer or move that user to our larger account? Can you change the organization your AGOL account is associated with? It seems this has to be possible isn't it? Yes we can share content thru a group but what we want is to transfer ownership of the web apps/feature services and it shows you can only transfer ownership of content within the same organization. Thanks in advance!, Kathy

Hi Rebecca Wang and Rupert Essinger‌, I had posted about 10 days ago and haven't heard back from anyone. Rebecca are you still experiencing this issue in IE? Our group recently launched the Short List story maps on our Department website and in my post earlier people were experiencing what you had originally described. I'm wondering what the status of the fix is or if there is another bug? Thanks in advance for your help, Kathy

Hi Rupert Essinger, We are also experiencing the issue with IE and Windows 10, was this not fixed yet? It seems people are getting this error when they click on the location photo a number of times expecting to go to the next photo or see another photo?? Thanks for any help in advance, Kathy

Thank-you!! We found it in the Google Analytics program from your tips above!

Hardolph Wasteneys, I just wanted to say thanks so much for the solution you posted. I have been trying all sorts of tools trying to move a shoreline feature a certain distance and angle. I tried buffer, copy parallel, it feels like the works but none of the tools provided the results I needed. Basically I needed a line from a point onshore to be a certain distance which seems so easy but when you buffer and measure at a latitude from the point on shore to the buffered line it is not the correct distance. So I tried the workflow you provided and it worked!!! Thanks SO much!, Kathy

Hi Raúl Jiménez Ortega, I just had a couple of follow up questions regarding the Google Analytics and the Story Maps we have deployed. I've checked to make sure our GA code is referenced at the bottom of the index.html. I also see the tab change in the custom script.js (although I didn't modify anything) and now I'm wondering where in the Google Analytics site we might be able to see/track those tab changes. Currently under pages tracked we can see the Story Map links as a whole. Here is an example of one of the Story Maps for Prince of Wales, would the Story Map being placed in an iframe not allow Google Analytics to track the tab changes with the additional code in the fork you created or I'm wondering if I don't have something set correctly. Thanks! Kathy

Perfect, Thank-you!

Hi Robert, I would like to submit an incident to ESRI. It was suggested it would help if we could tie it in with your incident number or so they could reference. Is this something you would pass along or still have? Thanks Again.

Thanks Robert and Dan for all the responses. I'm going to look into the planar versus geodesic geometry differences for how that creates such different angle output for the lines created by the respective tools. I think that is good advice Robert on its a good practice to stick with one method for a project and document which method was used.

The cyan line is the 297 bearing using the editor direction function for editing/adding a line. The greenish line was created using that Bearing Distance to Line tool. Actually someone else put in that line and then I just tried the tool and got the very same results. If the bearing doesn't look correct in the Bearing Distance to Line tool output then why is that? The benefit of the tool when using WGS84 is being able to have it draw a line in miles whereas I'm not able to do that editing a line using direction/distance with WGS84 since decimal degrees is the units or is there a workaround. Shouldn't both of these line angles be the same? I'm working on a project that I know someone else used the Bearing Distance to Line tool quite a bit and it doesn't make me feel very confident in our lines if the angles are this far off in cases where the tool was used.

The geodesic values apply to the length correct, but shouldn't the angle of the lines be the same between the two tools? The Bearing Distance to Line says "The angles are measured clockwise from North" and in the Editor if I choose North Azimuth, the help says "the azimuth of a line is the horizontal angle measured from a meridian to the line, measured in the clockwise direction from north" and the schematic looks like a compass. Below the two lines are both originating from the same point with a bearing of 297,the cyan line is delineated based on the Editor -Direction and the green line is the Bearing Distance to Line tool using that same starting point bearing, then specifying distance in miles with a rhumb line. Like I said I know the distance isn't comparable since WGS84 doesn't have measurable distance units when editing but I feel like there must be something obvious in my methods for such a big difference?

I was using WGS84 for both the feature class line I was editing and also the Bearing Distance to Line tool. I know the distance is hard to measure with the editor directions/length since the length units but its the difference in angles that is really quite different. I have the editor set to Direction Type: North Azimuth so they should be comparable right for the angles between the two methods?

Hi Robert, I was searching and found your post regarding similar results I'm getting for drawing a line with the same bearing using the editor direction/distance compared to the Bearing Distance to Line tool. I'm really curious about the difference in angles between the lines. Did you get a response from tech support on this? Thanks, Kathy

Hi, Did you ever get your Open Data Site to display images in Edge? I just noticed it is the same for our Open Data Site, I can see the images in other browsers but not Edge. Thanks!
