How embarrising, I've just submitted an idea like this https://c.na9.visual.force.com/apex/ideaView?id=087E0000000kBUOIA2 Not only did I not find this old one, but also had forgotten I had had a previous idea merged to this!

Layer files are good, however as soon as they are loaded into ArcMap the link to the LYR file is lost. This means that for corporate layers if we change the source or styling, all the old MXDs will have the original data/styling. So, a solution. A modification to the LRY file for it to contain a GUID. And an option on the layer properties to retain/restore layer to original state, plus storing the lry file location in the MXD. When a layer is loaded into a MXD it stores the LYR location and GUID. When that MXD is opened again ArcMap checks the LYR file stored and compares GUIDs. If there is a difference it loads the new properties of that layer file. If not it continues. If a user modifies the proeprties in any way the link is "broken" and the start up checks are by-passed. However there shou;d be a "restore to default lyr properies" button to remake the link. Implementing this idea will help all of us with large corporate networks to ensure all our users have the right data, displayed in the corporate way.

Cheers - that gets a tool tip over the actual tool buttons - I was after a floating tool tip over the actual line/polygon the users are creating.

Some more testing and a single feature work no attachments syncs, a single feature with a single photo worked. But a single feature with 9 photos failed. I'll try numbers between 1 and 9 later. Also, on full debug, the server shows a huge java message just at the same time as the SRVERE error thrown on the sync. So is there a java memory setting that needs increasing?

Hi I've still got this issue, and I am running on 10.3.1 Server and 10.3.6 Collector and connecting via a pretty fast internet connection. I have 10 features with 20 photos (taken before the option of setting the size, so will be at full iPad size) I have a call in with local support (Esri(UK) but my main goal here is just to get these features off. Cheers ACM

Maybe, but for the few people who need "educating" I think I'll pass. Many thanks anyway.

Alas, those unsupported properties seem to have been removed sometime between 3.11 (doesn't actually work, but I can see the properties in a debug window, so I'm sure it would with some tweaking) and 3.15 - non of the properties Area, Distance or location exist - or if they do they are further down the "tree" of properties _ i'll try to dig further Thanks anyway!

I've had a few users who don't realize that it is a double click to close the measurement tool, and complain they have to restart everything. Is there a way in the CSS to define a tooltip, in the same way as the draw tools? Cheers ACM

shameless bump. Anyone, anywhere virtualized any Arc product on App Volumes?

Thanks - but as I have FME as well, it was very simple.

Cheers - the polyline method seemed to work fine, gave me what I wanted, but a shame I had to use another program to create the polylines - we've only got an ArcEditor license, so the Esri tool wasn't available.

Hi Anyone any ideas how I can do a spatial join that is similar to the "within distance of" but looks at the outline of the initial feature? So, for example, I have a polygon and some points. I want to join the two layers where the points are within a set distance of the OUTLINE - so if it is 1 m from the outline, either outside the polygon or inside it gets counted. If it is 1 metre away from the outline INSIDE the polygon it gets ignored. Cheers ACM Edit - as I work around I have used FME to create a polyline version of the feature, retaining the origional object ID, the doing the join, then hoplefully atribute join the original layer back to get the joincount - which is the field I am after.

Yep - our SQL is 2008R2 - I'm not sure about the client version on the GIS server - I;ll check. But I created a 9.31. SDE service on the olde server, then moved it to the new one, and all seems OK - and I noticed the -n flag - thanks.

‎01-03-2016

OK - I think I follow - which command is it sdeservice? So should it be sdeservice -o create -d SQLSERVER -p <EXISTING SDE SCHEMA PASSWORD> -i <my service name I am recreating on this server, imaginably called SDE> -s <my existing sql server where the data currently is> But before that I need to go into ArcCat on the new server, make a direct connection and upgrade it to 10.2.1 (assuming ArcCat is 10.2.1, which I don't think it currently is, but it can be) Cheers edit - this page help Creating an ArcSDE Service on Windows using ArcGIS 10.1 | Esri Australia Technical Blog

OK - we have a 9.3.1 SDE - it is simply the SDE server NOT the database server. It needs retiring as it is Server 2003. The database is a SQL 2008 on a different server, which is fine. Ideally we want shot of SDE on a server, but have a legacy application that still needs it. So, I want to create a Windows SDE service on the new server (10.2.1) that points to the existing database on the existing SQL server. After which I'll run the relevant upgrade tool to get the datastore up to 10.2.1. The nice Post Install wizard seems missing in 10.2.1, so I can't even use that. I've never really done any SDE commandline stuff so am totally lost here. Any help much appreciated. ACM
