Our custom print services are taking around 20-45 seconds to load in the various print widgets when opening the print dialog depending on how many layout files are in the template folder. Checking the web traffic it is the "Get Layout Templates Info" task being called that is causing the delay. The default print service also calls that task but it only takes 2 seconds to run. The custom print service that takes 20 seconds to load only has 5 layouts and the default print service has 8 layouts. It does not make sense to me why the default is faster. Are there any best practices to speed up the Get Layout Templates Info task? I am currently running ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1, but this has been a problem for us for several versions. ... View more

I upgraded our ArcGIS Enterprise 11.0 install to 11.1 last week and ever since then secure services are causing the print service to crash. The error message is "Error executing tool. Export Web Map Task : Failed to create layer from service at <SECURE SERVICE URL HERE>. Failed to execute (Export Web Map)." This happens with the built in PrintingTools service and with custom print services. If there are no secure services in the map the all of the print services work as expected. Our setup uses short term tokens but they do not seem to be passed from the web map to the print service. I say this because verbose logging recorded "Request user: Anonymouse user, Service: <SERVICE PATH HERE>" when the print service tried to access the secure service. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? ... View more

Please consider adding an option when deploying ArcGIS Solutions that have hosted feature services to allow the user to pick a coordinate system when deploying the solution. Then have the solution project the templates for the hosted feature services to the selected coordinate system as part of the deployment. ... View more

Originally there was only the Global Positioning System (GPS) constellation. Now there are many different location satellite systems and the term Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is the new term for them. Many modern location receivers support using at least two constellations. Please update the app and supporting documentation to replace GPS with GNSS. From what I can see ArcGIS Field Maps uses GPS almost everywhere except in the location profile details where it uses GNSS instead. ... View more

Please add the ability to change the location profile from the GPS Details. We have some maps that use basemaps in a different projection that requires a different location profile. Currently I get an error that the map projection and the profile are not compatibile and the profile needs to be changed. That means selecting Maps, then the profile icon, then the location profile, then change the profile, and finally back out of all that back to the map. It would save a lot of time being able to make that change from the GPS Details.   ... View more

Please add the ability to change the location provider from the GPS Details. I have users that share an external GNSS receiver and have to switch back to the integrated location provider when not using the external unit. Currently they have to select Maps, then the profile icon, then the provider setting, then change the provider, and finally back out of all that to the map they were using.   ... View more
