Just a couple comments/questions, a few months removed from the date of your post. First - thanks for posting your process. Every new rev of Arc brings new challenges getting our python IDEs working again, and it's great to have some help, speaking as someone barely conversant in development environments 🙂 First a question - Have you tried opening a Jupyter Notebook after installing Spyder? I had Spyder working fine in Pro 3.0.2, but had not been able to get both Spyder and Jupyter Notebooks working at the same time. Jupyter works fine in the default environment (and outside of Pro), but not in the cloned environment after installing Spyder. So I went back to Pro 3.0.0 (after deleting the entire contents of my conda folder) to try your method of installing Spyder, but unfortunately no change with Jupyter.   Secondly just an FYI, for posterity - when I went through installing Spyder in 3.0.0 using the steps you outlined above, there is a minor difference now that it's several months layer. pip now installs Spyder version 5.4.0 rather than 5.3.1, and when starting Spyder I got a missing dependency error, telling me I needed nbconvert >=4.0, which was missing. I tried "pip install -U nbconvert", and that did the trick.     ... View more

Did you find a solution yet? If not, this is what I did based on posts in the "Python Questions" community, which worked well for me: 1) Clone your environment 2) Install "spyder_kernels" using Pro's Package Manager. If you try to install spyder from here, it will fail. 3) Open a DOS window and change to the Scripts folder in the folder of your cloned environment, and type "pip install spyder" That worked for me, and at least some others as well. One thing I will say about this though, is that I think installing Spyder breaks your ability to use Jupyter Notebooks within Arc Pro 3.0. At least, this is the only change I made to my cloned environment, and now I get a kernel error when creating or using a notebook within Pro, but notebooks work fine in the default environment.  In terms of installed packages, the only apparent difference between the two environments is the spyder_kernels package... ...

@IsmaelChivite  Ismael, the link you provided above doesn't seem to work anymore ("Hidden or Archived Page"). Can you provide an update on this question? Thank you. ... View more

Thanks Doug, that sounds a really good way to handle it - definitely don't care for multiple user logins, and I didn't want to lose editor tracking for sure.  I can run that idea past our cooperators. ... View more

Hi Dan, thanks for the response. I should have been clearer - the command I used to try the installation was simply "conda install spyder", without the version number - I didn't actually invoke pip from the command line.  Including the version in the install command doesn't change the outcome. And actually, that was only the first error of a very long string (I copied the first several errors at the bottom of this msg - they're all similar).   The missing files actually are missing from the cloned environment, but they're there in the default environment.  Copying them over by hand results in the same errors though, so not sure what to do next.  Maybe I'll just use Jupyter for everything instead.  I do like Spyder a lot but not sure it's worth the headaches each time I upgrade Pro.

Oh that's right, I forgot about that annoyance. The neighborhood and zonal tools just pick a value if there's a tie, this one gives you a null value. If you need to get rid of them, you can use IsNull and then SetNull to create a mask that identifies the null values, and then use that mask in Nibble to fill them with the neighboring values. Kind of a pain. ... View more

Did you click on "View details" to get more information on the error? (You can get to the tool's results, including any error messages, either by clicking on "View details" in the error window that pops up, or by going to the Catalog tab, clicking on "History", and mousing-over the tool name in the list.) It could be that the new field isn't wide enough to hold the concatenated values.  I think a quoted string will always turn red in the field calculator. ... View more
