Narelle, thanks for the link. The particular example I found, and I also went through the DAML Ids, looking for something like mapview or mapviewcomponent but ‘nada’. Hence my question if it is possible and the mapview maybe not accessible. I might also be wrong and the mapview is not the component the context menu belongs to.

I would like to build an AddIn that, once installed extents the context menu of MapViews. Meaning whenever the user is creating a MapView and does subsequently a right click on the map then there should be an item in it that does something when clicked on. Is that possible, and if so do the community samples contain an example for it? I could not find one concerning the MapView/ Map. Bests Thomas

Not as long as we are within the environment of ArcGIS Pro. It gives us some trouble since we cannot control it with respect to the demands coming from the site of the RDBMS. The latter one is not ours and we have to live up to the column naming definition, so the data import can proceed in a standardized way.

I know the guidelines, and hence I find it irritating, to say the least, that Esri database formats allow such things. In our case the geodatabase serves as an exchange format and has to fulfil some naming conventions with respect to the column names before the data are written in to an RDBMS. Guess I will have a look into Ideas and add it there if not yet existing.

I generate feature layers from subsets of data stored in an Oracle database. After some adjustments to the data, such as deleting columns, adding columns and calculating their values I am writing the feature classes into a file geodatabase. Looking at the column names generated by ArcGIS Pro I am puzzled that auto-generated columns e.g. GEOMETRY_Length have mixed names. Worst, I cannot alter the field name since the field is required... How to adjust/avoid mixed naming? How to force column names to UPPER CASE?

That sounds logic. However, if I do not read the API wrong: -> get and set??? I mean get would be enough for me.

I have sde files to connect to my Oracle database and as long as I use the Database class from ArcGIS.Core.Data the sde file is enough. However, I also need the credentials to issue some SQL commands later on. The password property of DatabaseConnectionProperties returns the instance and the user name as it should, but the password property only returns an empty string. Any suggestions on how to get the password read from the sde file? ArcGIS.Core version 12.3.0.0, runtime version v4.0.30319 Thomas

Thanks a lot Dan!

Starting to look at the Python SDK I was wondering how to upgrade to the latest version of the SDK. I am running version 2.3.1 of ArcGIS Pro which comes with version 1.5.1 of the arcgis module. Following the guide I can clone the arcgispro-py3 environment, but that's where the guide is a bit outdated, since version 2.3.1 of ArcGIS Pro does not come with a button 'New' giving the opportunity to name the environment self, but only with a button to browse environments or to clone the default. Once I clone the default environment I can upgrade the environment using conda upgrade -c esri arcgis‍ However, the module arcgis will be upgraded to version 1.5.3 and I would have rather expected the version to be 1.6.0. I was wondering how I can upgrade to 1.6.0. In addition, when the cloned environment is set as the active environment, running jupyter notebook opens the browser on http://localhost:8888/tree, where there is only a white page. Using one of the urls provided in the command line after running notebooks only leads to the same outcome. So in the end I cannot even run 1.5.3... Any chance someone here can tell me where it goes south?

Hi Wolfgang and Uma, is there a possibility to convert an ArcGIS.Core.Data.Table object into a System.Data.Datatable object? Looking at the linked example the DataTable of selected features is built-up iterative. Any chance to avoid that? Thomas

‎02-20-2019

Thanks for your answer! I was altering the paths just now by hand in the csproj file and that seems to work, but I was already thinking this won't be the right way to do it. See you guys in Palm Springs... 🙂

Hi Wolfgang, thanks for the reply and the linked example. It seems as if there's (almost) everything I need to get going. However, when i want to build the solution then I have the problem Error C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Esri.ProApp.SDK.Desktop.targets not found. IdentifyWindow c:\...\...\source\Samples\IdentifyWindow\IdentifyWindow.csproj 139 How can I adjust the path in VisualStudio, since I do not have my programs installed in the standard directories? Gruß Thomas

I am working on an add-in where I provide the user with a combobox, to select one of the featurelayers available in the toc. On change of the index of the combobox I want to read all attributes (columns and rows) of the specific featurelayer to be shown in a datagrid. Sure enough, in the end I do not want to show all columns of the attribute table but want to specify two or three columns. It is basically like the attribute table, only that I want to have it within my own ui and show only pre-defined columns. I looked through the api and the ProSnippets, but didn't find an example to do so. I do not have any selected features to show the attributes from, but need the attributes of all features. Anybody who can point me the right direction? Cheers Thomas

‎02-01-2019

Thanks Rich, i think I will follow your advice and loop through the features to look for corruption. Thomas

Actually, the error message is not pointing to any line in the C# code, but is raised by ArcGIS Pro, shortly after I try to open the attribute table. I found a discussion about the same problem here Oracle community but cannot make heads and tails out of it on how to implement that. Thomas
