ArcGIS Pro 3.3.0 I have a .pitemx file from https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=0f2878b910954110b05c1aec9a07f1c7  >  Open in ArcGIS Desktop > Open in ArcGIS Pro. When I drag the file from File Explorer to ArcGIS Pro, I get an error: Error - Add data Failed to add data, unsupported data type. I'm aware that I can double-click the file to open it in a new Pro session. But it would be more intuitive if I could also drag and drop the file to an existing Pro session, and not get an "unsupported data type" error (misleading). Additionally, I can't seem to use the Open Project dialog to open the file: It's confusing that double-clicking the file in File Explorer works, but the Open Project dialog doesn't work. I would have thought those two techniques would be similar. Also, I can't seem to use Catalog to open the file either. The folder doesn't expand, so I can't see the file: The Add Data dialog doesn't show the file either: But maybe I'm missing something. I can't find much documentation on .pitemx files:  Idea: Documentation about .pitemx files ENH-000167813: Provide documentation on .pitemx file and instructions on how to add a .pitemx file to ArcGIS Pro ...

ArcGIS Pro 3.3.0 I want to create an empty group layer for standalone tables. When I right-click the Standalone Tables section, the New Group Layer option is greyed out.  Whereas with spatial layers, when I right-click the Map section in the Contents, I'm able to create a new spatial group layer from scratch. But that group layer can't be used for standalone tables. I'm aware that a workaround is to select existing standalone tables and right-click them to create a group layer. However, I think I should be able to create an empty standalone table group layer from scratch, similar to what I can do for spatial layers.

ArcGIS Pro 2.9.5 Sometimes when I use the Explore tool on a feature, I need to manually click the feature in the Explore pop-up hierarchical tree in order to see the feature’s attributes. That seems unnecessary if there is only one feature found. Could the attributes (fields and values) be automatically displayed/expanded? ... View more
