We need to remember that the Add Data window in Pro is designed only to show 'valid' data that can be added to ArcGIS Pro. If we have a arc.adf file in a folder we are in a ArcInfo Info (database) directory while segments.gen indicates a folder holding Indexing information -that looks to be created by Python Add-Ins. Apparently Pro is using the existence of these key files to indicate the 'type' of folder (e.g., is it a File Geodatabase or a regular file folder?) when deciding to display (or not) them in the Add Data window. It would be interesting to see a list of these 'key' files for reference...when this is combined with the folder attribute issue (System or Hidden) and changes to user profile permissions (e.g., caused by Windows 10 group policy) troubleshooting can become quite interesting.

Still seeing this issue with ArcGIS Pro 2.1.2 and prior. The issue with the System attribute needs to be looked at by ESRI as to how this attribute is getting set. Now, "why" folders that have these attributes set are not showing in Windows is strait forward: (from http://web.csulb.edu/~murdock/attrib.html) "With DOS Versions after Version 4, use the +S option to set the SYSTEM attribute of a file. When the +S option is used, this flags the file as a command file used only by DOS. The file will not appear in a directory listing. This attribute is generally reserved for programmers." There is also a H attribute that will have this same effect. Oh, if this just started for you check if you receive Windows 10 Build 1709 (see https://jprudente.wordpress.com/2017/11/15/inaccessible-network-shares-on-windows-10-1709/). Rich

We have had this issue as well for over a year now since testing Drone2Map -good to see a resolution. We had an entire round with ESRI support regarding this and finally gave up -since we had not yet deployed Pro to a wide audience.

It redraws but it does not appear to be resulting in the desired behavior (zoom into the new map extent).

I know this is an old thread, but a working snip was never posted, so here you go! TurnOffLayer.py _________________ import arcpy fileName=arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0) mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument("CURRENT") lyr=arcpy.mapping.ListLayers(mxd, fileName) if lyr: if lyr[0].visible==True: lyr[0].visible=False arcpy.RefreshActiveView() sys.argv[2]=True arcpy.SetParameter(1,"True")

I'm trying to automate some tasks for unit test. Once of these tasks is zooming into a map a fixed amount and forcing ArcMap to redraw at the new extent. The Data Frame is named Raster Data Sets. The display is refreshing but it does not appear to honor the panToExtent() method. The AddMessage command shows that the value for the extent class was changed as expected. ideas? import arcpy zoomScale=arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0) mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument("CURRENT") df = arcpy.mapping.ListDataFrames(mxd, "Raster Data Sets")[0] lyr = arcpy.mapping.ListLayers(mxd, 'County Boundaries*', df)[0] ext = lyr.getExtent() arcpy.AddMessage("Old xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax: " + str(ext.XMin) + ", " + str(ext.YMin) + ", " + str(ext.XMax) + ", " + str(ext.YMax)) # change extent temp = ext.XMin + float(zoomScale) ext.XMin = temp temp = ext.YMin + float(zoomScale) ext.YMin = temp temp = ext.XMax - float(zoomScale) ext.XMax = temp temp = ext.YMax - float(zoomScale) ext.YMax = temp arcpy.AddMessage("New xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax: " + str(ext.XMin) + ", " + str(ext.YMin) + ", " + str(ext.XMax) + ", " + str(ext.YMax)) df.panToExtent(ext) arcpy.RefreshActiveView() sys.argv[2]=True arcpy.SetParameter(1,"True")

Since updating to ArcGIS Pro 2.1.2 a custom Add-in built based on the Basic Map tool example from GitHub is failing. It returns "Exception while waiting for a Task to complete. Caller: ClearFinishedTasksImpl, File: C:\ArcGIS\ArcGISDesktop\ArcGISEditing\ArcGIS.Desktop.Editing\EditLib\Awaitable.cs, Line: 339. See the inner exception for additional information." Any ideas or pointers on changes in the 2.1.2 SDK implementation that could have brought this about?

Ok, found the issue 😉 Need to convert degrees to radians to prevent negative values. (0.27 * ( ( math.tan ( !RASTERVALU! * ( 3.14159 / 180 ) ) * %Wave Height (Hs)% * %Wave Period (T)% ) ** (0.5) )) * 1.39

I'm using the field calculator in a model to calculate a field. I have the following expression, type is set to VB. 0.27 * ( ( Tan ( [RASTERVALU] ) * %Wave Height (Hs)% * %Wave Period (T)% ) ^ (0.5) ) This returns an error. If I remove the Power function (i.e., ^ 0.5) it works. Note, RASTERVALU is not null. Ideas?

Actually the minimum number of instances is 0 (1 is the default when you create a new service). If instances are set to zero you save a lot of memory with the trade off that there will be a delay as the instance starts the first time the service is accessed (over some time period, usually 10 seconds to 1 minute). Instances=0 is a good option when you have a large number of published feature services (think Open Data) but only a few of them are active at any one time. Rich

A new version of the Street View/Birds Eye View AddIn for ArcMap10.5 was recently made available.

ArcGIS Portal - Level 3 User (Admin) · ‎02-21-2018

In Portal add a default Level 3 - Server Administrator user. The user name associated with this account would be set during installation. This should be thought of as a 'built' in user. One of these would come with each ArcGIS Enterprise Server license and will allow a user to install, administer, and test the software prior to going through the provisioning step required for level 1 and level 2 users. Among other things this would facilitate EDN/ArcGIS Developer Subscription use of Portal and server.

Other have addressed dealing with the addressing, but your second question was about 'two point files with one polygon | differences of the placement'. I suggest trying the Near (ArcMap) or Generate Near Table (ArcGIS Pro) command. Summary Calculates distances and other proximity information between features in one or more feature class or layer. Unlike the Near tool, which modifies the input, Generate Near Table writes results to a new stand-alone table and supports finding more than one near feature. This, along with the address information, should help you associate the points correctly.

Interesting "valid horizon of this coordinate system" implies the wizard has been extended to support 3D data. It is probably not handling Z=No Data correctly. Secondly, ESRI must have also added some new 'error checking' at 10.6 that was not their before (I've never had a buffer 'clipped' based on a selected coordinate system). For example, UTM zones are not necessarily mathematically limited (i.e, east-west UTM Zone 19 coordinates can be used to reference a position that would fall within UTM Zone 18 or 20, that is because we use false eastings in the UTM definition). https://maptools.com/tutorials/grid_zone_details
