  I'm wanting to do what I used to be easily able to do in ArcMap and that's add in an LRS Event table that we have on SDE and then display those events on our LRS.   In ArcMap all I had to do was add in our LRS (Add Data --> Add Database Connection --> Then add our LRS).  Next was to then add the Event table we wanted to display on the LRS (Add Data --> Add Database Connection --> Add LRS Event Table).   The in ArcMap I could see the LRS layer and then the Event Table I added and all I then needed to do was right-click on the Event Table and select the "Display Route Events" and fill in the fields I needed and now my data is displayed on the map.   In ArcGIS Pro it seems this method is not how things are done anymore and trying to research I'm not finding a simple way to do this (I could just not be looking in the right spot).  How can I do this type of thing using ArcGIS Pro now? Thanks ... View more

In ARCmap, if I recall while in editing mode, in the Attribute table one could do a "Search & Replace" for a specific text you may have in a field using the standard Ctrl-H.   In Arcmap Pro, that doesn't seem to work at all anymore and the way to supposedly do it is to hit the 3 Bars in the top right of the Attribute Table and select the "Find & Replace".  Not sure why, but mine is grayed out and wondering why that is?   I think you can do it in the Calculate Field under the Code Block, but I keep coming up with a "WARNING 002858: Certain rows set to NULL due to error while evaluating python expression:   File "<string>", line 3, in replace" error using something simple like this.  NAME =  replace (!NAME!) Code Block import re def replace(val):       return re.sub ( 'TEXT A', 'text b', val)   I also looked at causes for this and none of these seem to apply from the (Fundamentals of field calculations—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation ) of why the Ctrl-F or Ctrl-H doesn't work.   The field I have is a text field I can individually edit manually or use Calculate Field to change the data as a whole.  It's not joined, or anything other than just a text field: A field that is managed by ArcGIS cannot be edited manually. Consequently, you cannot calculate field values for the ObjectID (OID or FID) field or the Shape_Length and Shape_Area fields for a geodatabase feature class. The table's data source is read-only, write access can't be established to the folder or geodatabase, or the data source is in a format that can't normally be modified. The field belongs to a table that has been joined to your table. You can only calculate values for fields in the origin table. The field may be a raster, BLOB, or Global ID type, which cannot be calculated. ... View more

  I have a query: FAC_TYPE IN ('SHARED LANE', 'PAVED SHOULDER', 'BICYCLE LANE', 'SEPARATED BICYCLE LANE', 'BICYCLE BOULEVARD') And (NAME = '' Or NAME IS NULL) And UPDATED = 'YES' (sorry I can't figure out, using the Syntax Highlighter, how to change the bold or color of the part I want highlighted)   The important part is I not only have NULL values, but blank ones that are only found using the NAME = ''.  The issue is if I cut and past my code into the SQL it works fine, however if I save this query for future use and re-load it, the '' is removed each time (NAME = ) and the query fails until I manually have to add the quotes back in. Here's what it looks like when loading it back up: FAC_TYPE IN ('SHARED LANE', 'PAVED SHOULDER', 'BICYCLE LANE', 'SEPARATED BICYCLE LANE', 'BICYCLE BOULEVARD') And (NAME = Or NAME IS NULL) And UPDATED = 'YES'‍ Where NAME = shows up with out the ''.   Anyway to fix this when saving queries or is this just a bug? ...

I had to create a new layer from the source destination and instead of re-doing the symbology from scratch, I just imported the symbology to the new layer and got rid of the old one.  This worked fine until I realized, I can no longer change the label for that layer anymore.  It still keeps the original labels regardless how I edit or change the Label Properties.  It's just hard coded regardless of what I do it seems.   If I change one of the symbols though, it changes it to whatever I want, so it's just the labels that are somehow locked.  This means not only the expression, but also the Symbols appearance that I can't change.  If I do change it, it still saves it in the Label Properties, but it will still only display the older imported label style.   Anyway of unlocking it so I can change the Labels?  Or is this a bug with importing symbology? ...

  In ArcMap you could easily transfer specified attributes from a polyline to multiple other polylines by I think it was holding down the Ctrl or Shift key.  It would then give you a leader line that you could use to select multiple polylines to all update in one shot.   In Pro, I don't see that ability at all.  The strange thing was, a few months ago, holding down the Shift or maybe Ctrl would copy to multiple polylines if you selected them very quickly, but now that's not even working for me.  Instead I'm having to continually click on the source polyline, then to the first polyline I want the attribute, reselct the tool, reselect the parent polyline, select the next polyline, etc.  This is a giant pain to do.   Is there something I'm missing that allows selecting multiple polylines to transfer attributes to? (I know there have been past posts about points and polygons not being supported yet with the Attribute Transfer, so maybe this functionality is something that hasn't been implemented at all yet?) ...

  I had originally asked this last year and never got any help.  The issue just suddenly started happening again today and it's been like this all day long.    Simply the issue is when I'm editing, I switch between selecting by rectangle and Edit Verticies and then out of nowhere, the cursor switches to the Explore tool and nothing I do in Pro can get me out of that mode.  I can't select anything anymore using the rectangle or any other shape, I can't use the measure tool and many other things.   The Z, X, C buttons work, but that's about it.  Not using the Webroot anti-virus software as was discussed in one of ESRI's bug reports and the only thing I've found as a temporary release is to restart the computer each time, which as you can tell is a giant pain.   As mentioned, I haven't had this become a problem for quite a long while other than random occurrences which got fixed by the reboot, but all of a sudden today, it's just constantly locking up...
