Hi, see this idea which is under consideration: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/quot-save-it-later-quot-without-creating-a-new/idi-p/941742 Is that the same as what you want? ... View more

Hi, another good resource for you might be https://learn.arcgis.com/en/projects/choose-the-right-projection/ It's a hands-on tutorial at an introductory level. It includes concepts and practical applications of the concepts--like visualizing the distortion caused by different types of projections. ... View more

Hi TamT, thank you for drawing attention to this. The ArcGIS Pro development team has logged an issue to fix this behavior. I can't give you a time estimate, but it is being tracked now. Thanks again!  Tim ... View more

oh, I see... would setting a reference scale for the map work for you? Map reference scales You can do that on a per-layer basis within the map. ... View more

Hi Maureen, you can apply scale-based sizing to all the symbols in a layer. The option is on the Symbology pane, under Format Point Symbol, on the Properties tab. Described in the help topic Scale-based symbol sizing ... View more

As far as I know, maps and layouts always open stacked on top of the active view. I don't think you can change this in the UI. When a map opens next to a table, it's because the table view was active when you opened the map. If you make a map view active instead, or close the table view first, then the new map (or layout) will open in the expected location. ... View more

Hi, try setting the user interface options for working with views and see if that helps. See this help topic: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/get-started/user-interface-options.htm ... View more

Hi Scott, your image shows that you're trying to add a geodatabase as a folder connection. The Name box will only be populated if you select a folder in that right-hand window. Browse up one level so all those folders appear in the right-hand window and it should work. ... View more

Hi, hope this isn't too late to be of use. There are a couple of ways to thin out the display of all those wolf packs: Use a definition query. Use a display filter. You can also select a subset of the features and export it to a new dataset, but I'd probably go with one of the first two approaches.  As for singling out the state of Washington--I don't think that's possible on a basemap like the one in your image. But you can search online for U.S. state boundary layers (same way you found the wolf data). You can then apply a definition query or display filter so that only Washington appears on the map. Then you would turn off the basemap or dim it or something. Btw when you search ArcGIS Online for data in Pro, search results are sorted by default on Date Modified. To find a good U.S. states layer easily, change that sort key to Relevance instead.  ... View more

@JamalNUMAN there is more info in this help topic: Refresh a location's content. There is also a related idea on ArcGIS Ideas. ... View more

Hi, the best course of action is to contact Esri Technical Support if you haven't done so already. This is probably something that needs troubleshooting. Tim ... View more

one more option: set a display filter. Similar to a definition query in its visual effect, but doesn't change the attribute table display or field calculations/stats/etc. Those operations still work on all features in the layer, whereas a definition query excludes them. ... View more
