I like the idea, but some of what you suggest is already in place, albeit not as easy as clicking one icon.  In Desktop, you can use the TOC Options to change the list order to "List by Name".  This appears to only affect the List by Visibility and List by Selection lists.  But there is no search capability that I can see. In Pro the filter at the top of the contents pane lets you do the searching part of this, but there is no #re-order by name option AFAIK. I would support adding "List by Layer Name" to the existing list methods to both Desktop and Pro. ... View more

I'm not sure if this will help you, but in a normal installation, the executable for ArcMap is here: C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.x\bin\ArcMap.exe ... View more

I generally handle this kind of situation by creating a new field named FLAG, selecting the records of interest and Calculate Field FLAG = "YES".  Clear the selection, then symbolize on that new field.   This is a flexible approach and very simple. ... View more

Never thought I'd agree with that statement, but yes in this case, good point!  Is it possible to make some of that text available through a hyperlink?  The other idea that occurs to me is to make that text part of the "Alpine Energy" graphic, which would give you more control over the font size. ...

Your MXD could be used to create a map service which you would then use within a Storymap. The design of the StoryMap is largely done within ArcGIS Online.

I just exported 156,604 polygon features into a FGDB, so it doesn't appear that size is the problem. Additionally, this link says there is a default limit (which can be increased) of 1 TB for feature classes in FGDBs:  https://www.esri.com/news/arcuser/0309/files/9reasons.pdf  Jay ... View more
