If you aren't seeing the change right away, you may need to refresh the map series.    For more information see this help topic: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/layouts/refresh-map-series.htm ... View more

Table dynamic text in ArcGIS Pro was designed for cases like this. It doesn't honor the selection on the map, but you can implement a custom query to show only certain values. Learn more about how to use it here: Add and modify dynamic text—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation  ... View more

Hi,  This is available in ArcGIS Pro by using the adjust frame fitting strategy. You can read more about it here: Work with a legend—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation.  If you create a legend by single clicking a point on the layout instead of drawing a box this fitting strategy is applied automatically.

Hi Miguel, The [...] symbol just means there isn't enough space in your legend to show the information. You can try shrinking the font size, or changing the legend fitting strategy. This help topic explains fitting strategies and has steps on how to change fonts: Work with a legend—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation . You can also enable word wrapping, which will put long labels on multiple lines, I find that to be useful when working with legends. Cheers, Aubri Kinghorn ... View more

Hi Vince, I work with Tom Bole and we've been further investigating this issue. It looks like there are some bugs in how the "New column" option works for various legend fitting strategies, and sometimes it is enabled incorrectly. We are working on correcting this. It sounds like the bigger problem is you need more control over which legend items are placed in which legend columns. We are planning some new enhancements that would allow you great control in this area that we hope to include in a near release of Pro.  Thank you for your feedback, my team really appreciates it.

Hi Brad, I work with Tom, and we've been looking at the issue. What you're seeing is most likely due to any indents set on the legend items. Legend items are given an automatic indent of 5 pts. This is easy to see if the legend title is turned on. Setting the indent to 0 may be helpful in your case. We are looking at removing the automatic indent, and improving the aligning experience for items with borders and gaps in future releases of ArcGIS Pro. I hope this helps. Cheers, Aubri Kinghorn ...

Hi, In ArcGIS Pro there are 2 ways to set the color based on an attribute. You can link the color of a symbol to an field using attribute-driven color, or you can vary symbology by color. These help topics explain how to set these up, and what situations each works best for. Attribute-driven color: Attribute-driven color in symbology—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation  Vary symbology by color: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/help/mapping/layer-properties/vary-symbology-by-color.htm Cheers, Aubri ...

Unfortunately, I don't think an Arcade expression can get the result you want. The Arcade expression for dynamic text is applied to each individual row, it can't read through all the rows in the table and aggregate them. To do that, you'd need to manipulate the data so the table column listed all the pages with a McDonalds. The Summarize tool might be able to do that, although I'm not sure.  ... View more

Ah, okay I think I understand now. I can make this work, as long the page number is stored in the polygon class I want to report on (in your case, restaurants). To do that I ran an intersect of the polygon and the grid index: Then, using the new feature class for the polygon area containing the grid number I inserted Value Dynamic Text showing Visible Rows with this Arcade expression:  $feature.City_Name + "... " + $feature.PageName + TextFormatting.NewLine That worked for me, I got the names to update on every page in the map series. Note: If you use TextFormatting.NewLine to show each restaurant on a new line, be sure that your Delimiter is cleared. It defaults to a space, which throws off the alignment for the new lines.  ...

This sounds like it might be a good case for the new custom grids (Custom grids—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation) available in Pro 2.6. If you create a grid feature class for the entire map area using the Grid Index Features tool (Grid Index Features (Cartography)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation) you can use a custom grid to draw the reference grid labels on your map. Custom grids use existing line or polygon features as the grid lines, then let you label the grid outside of the map frame using a column in the feature or an Arcade expression. Using a custom grid, I was able to create this alpha numeric grid: Cheers, Aubri K ... View more

Hi Branislav Blagojevic, The raw geologic data is from the state of New Mexico RGIS clearinghouse. You can find it here: Browse rgis data under New Mexico Geologic Formations. I symbolized the data using the Geology24K style from here: https://esri-styles.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=96f711a17b824752b2521699c0722933  I hope this helps. Cheers, Aubri ... View more

Hi!  With the new Export Pane in Pro 2.5 your settings are remembered after you export a layout. So if you export one layout without a transparent background, next time you go to export (in that project, or a different project) that option will be checked off.  ... View more
