I have to comment on this thread. Why are we, the paying customers, having to spend time helping Esri identify so many bugs in their software and platform? It seems to me that Esri needs to improve their software testing and error correction prior to releasing. Maybe there's an internal subset of Esri employees who actually use the software to do their work, like manage the Living Atlas content or like provide technical consulting to premium customers. Certainly those groups of Esri employees experience bugs and could be the first line users past the developers' internal release to serve as a quality gate. Esri is certainly transferring a lot of cost to its customers along with the invoice for the software. I expect that I'll just keep running directly into bugs every time I fire up Esri's software. I feel like I'm in "beating a dead horse" mode on this issue, but obviously the horse is not dead, and is in fact hobbling around and biting me. Enough for now, gotta go fire up ArcGIS Pro... tim

ArcGIS Pro > Project > Options > Application > Time ...could be added with the ability to select the default time zone and check on by default the box for "Adjust for Daylight Saving". Why? Because, "I am le tired" of doing it over and over and over and over. The settings could apply to the layers, to the map, to services being published to ArcGIS Enterprise, ArcGIS Online, etc. (and by "etcetera" I mean that ArcGIS Pro architects could look at what they've got and apply the settings appropriately, consistently, and completely within and across their platform). I expect that ArcGIS Pro users who mostly operate within a single time zone would be the beneficiaries of this idea. tim

Because when they do, ArcGIS Pro grumbles in muted shades of red... which causes me to grumble in muted shades of red, too. I prefer to produce in happy shades of green. -tim

Wow, that was some sorta un-intuitive right there. Thanks for sharing the key to fixing ArcGIS Pro's mangling of my data, Matthew! Hmmm, this gives me an ArcGIS Idea... https://community.esri.com/ideas/17539 tim

Like ArcMap before it, ArcGIS Pro could make it easy to format the values that come from fields that are in tables. Maybe it's a UI / UX thing Maybe it's a documentation thing Maybe it's just me Here's an ArcMap example: Formatting numeric fields in tables—Help | ArcGIS Desktop Here's an ArcGIS Pro example: GeoNet denizens: Format decimal place in ArcGIS Pro ArcGIS Pro help: https://pro.arcgis.com/search/?q=Formatting%20fields%20in%20tables&p=0&language=en&product=arcgis-pro Google: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22arcgis+pro%22+Formatting+numeric+fields+in+tables

Hi Kory Kramer, Do you know of a way for me to add the ArcGIS Online / ArcGIS Enterprise map symbol styles to ArcGIS Pro? I dug into your approach indicated above, but didn't find success. My business need is to author a map service that I then publish to ArcGIS Online and to ArcGIS Enterprise. I want to style the data in ArcGIS Pro before publishing so I only have to do it once. thx, tim

Nice evaluation and summary. It looks to be a good candidate for ArcGIS Ideas. Also, in my test, I didn't have to sign in to ArcGIS Online in order to make it my active portal, search, find, and use content. Of course, this is only the case with any content that is shared to everyone from ArcGIS Online.

Hi Zachary, Nope, no ArcGIS Pro in my original post. I just tested your desire successfully in ArcGIS Pro 2.4.2. Here's what I did: ArcGIS Pro 2.4.2 > "Project" tab > "Portals" > "Add Portal" > https://www.arcgis.com resulted in "https://www.arcgis.com, Available : Not signed in" being listed under Portals Right-clicked that portal entry > Set As Active Portal View > Catalog Pane > Portal > clicked the "All Portal" cloud thingy > searched "tsunami" got a bunch of results and added one to a map woot cheers, tim

I need the same capability. Generically, I need for any ArcGIS Enterprise and ArcGIS Online creator accounts to be able to design and add a table, establish a 1-to-many relationship from an existing feature class that has been shared to them to the table, and then edit their table as needed. I haven't found a way to do it yet, either. If there's a way, I'd love to know about it. tim

Kevin Christy, Thanks for posting this idea. It's been one of those low-priority annoyances for me for years. I'd style some data, author a feature service, publish it to ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise (nee "Portal for ArcGIS"), and... then I'd have to go and style everything again. Thought I just did that. So, I can see where we would not necessarily need styling parity across the entire ArcGIS platform, in that some heavy-duty styling is more appropriate in Desktop apps. I'd like for Esri to consider employing the principle - "If the style is available in ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise, then it should be readily available by default in ArcGIS Pro (just going with the idea that ArcMap, etc. are lost causes). tim

At the moment, I only get to specify 29 characters for a field name when using ArcGIS Pro 2.4.1 with an enterprise geodatabase in SQL Server 2016. When I try to enter the 30th character, the input field stops receiving and reflecting the character I typed. I tried copy/pasting the field name string, but ArcGIS Pro would not acknowledge that I had entered anything. Seems inadequate when it is said in the documentation that ArcGIS Pro supports 31 character field names in SQL Server and 64 character field names in file geodatabases. Enterprise geodatabase size and name limits—Manage geodatabases in SQL Server | ArcGIS Desktop File geodatabase size and name limits—Manage file geodatabases | ArcGIS Desktop How I got there: ArcGIS Pro 2.4.1 > (file or enterprise) geodatabase > table > right-click > Design > Fields What I'll try next: using ye olde ArcMap to change the field name dumping an XML Workspace document, loading it into Sparx Enterprise Architect, twiddling the field name, exporting it, importing using ArcGIS Pro
