I had a similar issue same as @compass_cartographic  where I was getting the error message TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable So I ended up at this thread  and the solution was to change tgt_item_md.thumbnailUri(thumb_path) to tgt_item_md.thumbnailUri = thumb_path. I think the issue is a "chicken and egg" scenario. I had a folder with hundreds of datasets I wanted to insert a generic thumbnail into. How can you update something if nothing exists?  So when you want to update the thumbnail you need to set it rather than update an existing one when you are creating metadata for the first time. I had a similar problem with update tags and summary. I had to run my code twice, first to import , that gave me something that exists then I ran the code again to update it. Here is my code for people to review. import arcpy from arcpy import metadata as md """ Comment out 3-lines as required to update metadata accordingly. """ # Set the standard-format metadata XML file's path # This dataset I used ArcPro to populate with lots of generic metadata which I want to apply to all other datasets in the same folder. src_file_path = r"C:\Project\Raster\CHIRPS2_0\AfricaMonthly\chirps-v2.0.1981.01.tif" # Generic thumbnail image to be applied to all metadata thumb_path = r'C:\Scratch\chirps.png' # Set the current workspace arcpy.env.workspace = r"C:\Project\Raster\CHIRPS2_0\AfricaMonthly" # Get and print a list of GRIDs from the workspace rasters = arcpy.ListRasters("*", "TIF") for raster in rasters: if raster != "chirps-v2.0.1981.01.tif": # skip self print(raster) yr = raster[12:16] # Extract year from file name mth = raster[17:19] # Extract month from file name tgt_item_md = md.Metadata(raster) if not tgt_item_md.isReadOnly: # These 3 lines import metadata and update thumbnail #tgt_item_md.importMetadata(src_file_path) #tgt_item_md.thumbnailUri = thumb_path #tgt_item_md.save() # These 3 lines update tags and summary which now EXIST due to the previous run of import. tgt_item_md.tags = tgt_item_md.tags + "," + yr tgt_item_md.summary = tgt_item_md.summary + " Year = " + yr + ", Month = " + mth tgt_item_md.save()   ...

I can get some way to replicating what you see without any coding but labels may not be the final thing you want as labels are dynamic and move around as you zoom in/out. I suspect if you truly want what you see then you need to convert the labels to annotations and tweak as needed. So this is my test data: Create two label classes, one called first the other called stacked. For first set the label to be field firstval and set its font size to be big. Then set its positional properties   Now select your stacked label class and ensure the expression are the 3 fields SPACED separated as shown below. Set your stacked position to fixed and offset. Now set fitting strategy to be stacked splitting at space.   This gets you this:   It's close to what you desire but I believe you need to convert this to an annotation layer which you can then tweak. Converted to annotations and played around with I now have this. Don't under estimate how much effort that is going to take if you have thousands of polygons to adjust!   ... View more
