Hi. I have followed some ESRI sample code for putting tabs on a dockpane. See this: https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk/wiki/ProConcepts-Framework#tabindicator It works well - however if I want to make a button stick to the bottom (with a margin round it) and kind of have it separate itself away from all other controls on the dockpane - I find it almost impossible to figure out because you have to use a ContentPresenter - a kind of template dockpane and I think all the height sizing parameters go haywire! Whats doubly annoying is that at design time - it looks fine but when you look at the actual control at run time it does not behave - can anyone suggest the correct XAML as I have lost hours on this and I can't waste anymore development time on this - see the screen shots: Design Time: Runtime: ...

Hi, From my add-in I have always had this code that could save a graph (Bitmap) from a WPF form to a png file. Now I have moved my codebase to a 3.0.36057, now any code that has anything to with System.Drawing throws an exception, saying that the dll for System.Drawing is missing. It's not its there - it compiles and everything is fine - just like it was for earlier versions of my add-in. So, I believe this dll is not thread-safe so I tried to implement the code:      FrameworkApplication.Current.Dispatcher.Invoke(() => { Bitmap myBitmap = null; });       I can't get it to work at all. Can any help me out to understand how I can get this to run.  I've spent 2 days on this now and I'm getting pretty frustrated.   and the exception is thrown: "Could not load file or assembly 'System.Drawing.Common, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51'. The system cannot find the file specified.":"System.Drawing.Common, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51"   ... View more

Hi, What event should I subscribe to if I want to catch when someone is renaming a Map title in the TOC? I've tried listening to ActivePaneChangedEvent and ActiveMapViewChangedEvent, but it doesnt trigger on renaming a Map. If anyone can help, it would be much appreciated. ... View more

I have used the SaveItemDialog with 2 filters. Whenever I type a name for the file I want to save it never puts the appropriate suffix for the file type I want to save as. I cannot seem to find anything in the instance of the SaveItemDialog to see what the current filter selected is as there is nothing showing a property to this effect. Can someone help me understand how I can get the right file suffix on save?   var jsonFilter = BrowseProjectFilter.GetFilter("esri_browseDialogFilters_json_file"); var csvFilter = BrowseProjectFilter.GetFilter("esri_browseDialogFilters_browseFiles"); csvFilter.FileExtension = "csv"; csvFilter.Name = "CSV files (*.csv)|*.csv"; csvFilter.BrowsingFilesMode = true; BrowseProjectFilter compositeFilter = new BrowseProjectFilter(); compositeFilter.AddFilter(jsonFilter); compositeFilter.AddFilter(csvFilter); SaveItemDialog saveDialog = new SaveItemDialog() { Title = "Save", BrowseFilter = compositeFilter, OverwritePrompt = true }; bool? result = saveDialog.ShowDialog(); if (result == true) { //Get the selected file path string filePath = saveDialog.FilePath; //File path is always missing file suffix which is specified in the filter } ...

Hi, I have a pro window that is modal - it lists the maps in the project. You select a map and press ok.      Meanwhile there is QueuedTask that opens up the map, this can take some time so I use a progress dialog just so the user knows Pro is doing things. However if I don't put a message box after it has opened the map, code execution continues and won't allow the user to select a file to save the json and just says "JSON file not saved". I want to get rid of this! This is really strange because the save file dialog is modal but its almost like the computer has automatically cancelled the dialog and continued execution on it's own accord. I though execution had to halt on a modal dialog. If anyone can help me get rid of the unnecessary message box that would be great. Also an explanation to what stupid thing I'm doing wrong would be great. I have tried many things but I can't seem to solve it. The code below should be able to be copy pasted behind a ribbon button in pro. However you may need some rudimentary XAML for the pro window. Just an ok button would do I guess.     protected async override void OnClick() { var proWindowModal = new MapPaneChooserWindow { DataContext = new MapPaneChooserWindowVM(), Owner = FrameworkApplication.Current.MainWindow }; var dialogResult = proWindowModal.ShowDialog(); if (dialogResult == true) { ProgressorSource ps = new ProgressorSource("Opening map..."); //This can take some time - so we use a progress dialog. chosenMap = await QueuedTask.Run(() => { return Module1.MapPaneChooserWindowVM.SelectedMap.GetMap(); }, ps.Progressor); //!!!! Forced to put a message box here or it will run automatically to "Layer collection not saved" section below !!!! //If you take this message box out of hte code - you will see the effect MessageBox.Show("Finished opening map.", "Map", System.Windows.MessageBoxButton.OK, System.Windows.MessageBoxImage.Information); SaveFileDialog saveFileDialog = new SaveFileDialog(); saveFileDialog.Filter = "JSON files (*.json)|*.json"; saveFileDialog.Title = "Save JSON File"; var result = saveFileDialog.ShowDialog(); if (result == true) { //do stuff about saving a json file here... } else { MessageBox.Show("JSON file not saved", "Save JSON file", System.Windows.MessageBoxButton.OK, System.Windows.MessageBoxImage.Information); } } }   ...
