I like this idea. It obviates the need to recreate expressions in multiple apps for the same effect (in my current case, showing decimal as percentage).

WRT "sharing setup", yes, let's do that. I have a Huion XP-Pen 22E, which has the programmable buttons on the side, plus the Shortcut Remote, which can be used with any Huion. I've not yet dived into what shortcuts should be put in the programmable buttons. Any suggestions? I'll edit this post as I go, building a reference resource.

Yes please!!

Found it under Dashboard >> edit >> configure map >> settings

"Note: To control the scale to which it zooms (i.e., level of detail), configure the map element and update the Point Zoom Scale property. In this dashboard I used 50,000,000. Make sure to enter the number without commas." Where is this property? I can't find it and the map element page linked to doesn't mention it. Thanks!

How do you get to the dashboard json in order to modify this parameter?

Posted in ArcGIS Pro forum last week but no replies yet. Let's try the Cartography forum. ((wish there was a better way to catch multiple communities)) Surface Pro Studio and ArcGIS (Map & Pro)?

Has anyone tried Microsoft Surface Pro Studio with ArcMap and/or Pro? What was that like, what worked/didn't. etc. (and feel free to spin off on Wacom Cintiq or Huion if you have experience with those too)

Active editing by both. Conserving disk space is nice but not essential. Avoiding data duplication is highly desirable -- specifically the headache of trying to remember which feature class or table in which location is the most current, and merging updates between.

This is great! Dan, if/when you have time and willingness, would you consider expand on and describing your structure here? https://community.esri.com/message/830901-folder-structure-for-shared-pro-and-map-projects

We're going to be living with concurrent ArcMap and ArcPro projects for many years. It would be good to have best practice or at least suggested folder structure(s) for projects that want or need to use both of these products at the same time on the same data and maps. What have you tried already, and from that experience what works and what doesn't? Keep in mind there's never going to be a realized ideal. Meaning: please don't turn into a litany of complaint thread. Both products have deep assumptions about folder structure that can't be easily changed. Recognizing that starting point, what practical things can we do to make using the two together somewhat more efficient and productive? (That said, please do feel free to link to other places, Ideas for instance, where those itchy things have potential for change.)

I don't think disabling the home folder will really help those of us who use corporate shared/project structures.The concept is baked in to too many places within ArcMap and Pro's assumptions. What I think could work is if ANY folder could be marked and saved as Home for that project, the same way as can be done for default geodatabase now. I do despise that we can't use "go up" to next folder in tree from the Home folder. Not being able to do so creates so much extra clicking and navigating. We should always be able to navigate the file system. There's is already a button to go to Folder Connections.

This idea split from ArcGIS Pro: Provide an option that requires all edit sessions to be manually started as it is a distinct idea. Every edit session should be started deliberately, intentionally, willfully and knowingly, especially now that Pro can simultaneously edit two or more different workspaces (e.g., file GDB and SDE). Many of us have decades of ArcMap's "manual start edit session" paradigm in our operating assumptions. Although a bit inconvenient, the ArcMap approach is less dangerous and less error-prone. A significant number of new people could also stumble into this pit-fall.

Thank you

The release notes for Pro 2.3 and pre-release for ArcMap 10.7 say "You can no longer create user-schema geodatabases in Oracle". Where can I find more information on this? I'd like to get the back story and understand why. I don't know that I care a great deal however there will probably be "it makes for better information management" principle involved somewhere and I should probably know what that is. Thanks.
