Why not provide filtering capabilities in the Map Viewer using URL parameters? Going further, why not have parity between the Map Viewer and the mapping web apps in terms of URL parameters?  Map Viewer URL parameters: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/arcgis-online/reference/use-url-parameters.htm Experience Builder URL parameters: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/experience-builder/latest/build-apps/url-parameters.htm ...

Good work in trying to use surveying techniques in Field Maps / TMM. Have you seen the link below? Can you create a geoid file from your local site? https://community.trimble.com/viewdocument/how-to-side-load-custom-geoids-f?CommunityKey=2724bc18-0fbe-4f63-a41c-4a5fa6264382&tab=librarydocuments This may not be all that's needed but you could test it. We still have the coordinate system that's assigned to the map (and its layers). I'm not a Trimble fan, but the TSC5 does allow you to run GIS software (Field Maps) and survey software such (Trimble Access) on the same device. I understand that a screen rotation app is needed to make Field Maps work in landscape mode.  Trimble won't license the Android version of Trimble Access on a non-Trimble device, otherwise we would have a lot of devices that could be used. It might be wise for us to ask for integration of GIS and survey. Yeah, we get improvements in drips and drops but why not integrate Trimble Access with ArcGIS Online? @JoelCusick/ @JoelCusick1 - do you have your ears on? Joel may be able to help. ... View more

Bud, I should have mentioned that we are not using Pro. Although your answer will be helpful to others. ... View more

In QGIS, we can use the expression "num_geometries($geometry)" in the Field Calculator to return a count of geometry parts. Isn't there an expression which could be used in the Field Calculator to either detect or count multipart geometry? Thanks for any help. ... View more

In BUG-000161250, related records would not display nor would attachments to those related records. That's what it should say. I wasn't able to find the bug on the ESRI site so I don't know what it actually says. Hmm, never heard that before. How can I read a gdb file with MS Access? ... View more

Hi, @MelissaSalich. As a workaround you may be able to convert the feature class and related attachment table to a file geodatabase then to a personal geodatabase (mdb), then use MS Access with the Access Imagine extension to make your report. This extension enables Access to read an image from a MS Access table, is very inexpensive, although it does not handle rotation. You may need ArcGIS Desktop to go from a file geodatabase to a personal geodatabase. This is how I got around BUG-000161250. A live data connection would be preferable, but so would software that works! ... View more

Great tip, @RonnieRichards. It would be great if you could share the SQL that you used to delete the Global ID column in your RDBMS. 11 years and still no fix for this? I'm quite weary of the way ESRI treats us. ... View more

I have not changed to Server version 11.1 yet. Have you tried popups in both Map Viewer and Map Viewer classic? Did you check in your browser's Developer Tools for errors or things that don't completely load? Did you check your ArcGIS Server logs for errors? Can you make the popups work with the SampleWorldCities service that comes with ArcGIS Server? Assuming you published from an APRX file, did you rebuild the APRX file from scratch and publish a new service and test with that?  Hopefully the change to 11.1 was done in a test environment? Or maybe you imaged the production server prior to the change so you can quickly go back to the older version that was functional? It may be helpful to have a test server setup where you can load a newer version of Server and test it prior to putting it in production use. ... View more

John, Thank you for trying to help. I could be misunderstanding but I don't think adding a buffer is a workaround. What really needs to happen is the tiles need to get shifted inward in both the X and Y directions to create overlap. Adding a buffer to the makes the index tiles larger than the data frame. I don't think we want that to happen. Again, I could misunderstand what you're suggesting. ... View more

Hope this get fixed soon. Does anyone know if this is a problem with the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for iOS? I am wondering if this and other bugs / inconvenient behavior could be corrected by writing an app. ... View more

I was hoping for an answer to the question. ArcGIS Pro is a refashioned ArcMap. Same programming objects with the same bugs, with a new look. ... View more

I would like an answer to this as well, regarding ArcGIS Desktop. I posted a new question at the link below asking a similar question. https://community.esri.com/t5/arcmap-questions/where-are-geoprocessing-environment-settings/m-p/1308326 This next link is helpful but it does not address Geoprocessing Environment Settings > Default Geodatabase and Scratch Geodatabase. https://community.esri.com/t5/esri-technical-support-blog/want-to-redirect-your-default-geodatabase/ba-p/899959   ...

Here's something to consider. Try creating a new polygon shapefile with a shape that exceeds all of your Lakes and exceeds the extent which your Land should cover. Use the Erase tool with the new shapefile as Input Features and the Lakes as Erase Features. This will create polygons covering the white (from your graphic). But you will still have to trim the land areas back to reality. I think you'll see what I mean after going through these steps. Oh, the Erase tool requires the Advanced license level. If you don't have that, the Difference GP tool in QGIS should do the same thing. ... View more

This sounds like a horizontal directional drill (HDD) method of installing something like HDPE pipe (which is somewhat flexible). It could be under a road, river, other utilities or probably some other things. For now I think we are limited to using line segments to vertical represent curves, which is OK for me. ... View more
