Hi, Now with ArcGIS Pro 2.1, I am back this graphics editing issue. As you confirmed, in Pro it is not possible to convert to graphics. You mentioned a workflow in which to edit derived dataset (I am not keen on this method) in order to move symbols around to produce the final map. Unfortunately, performance in Pro is very poor and my machine should handle ArcGIS Pro 2.1 (see below). In the Edit tab, clicking any point symbol to Move, it takes 25s to select! It is terrible. You also mentioned shape overrides for Move operation. How does this work? I really need some help to solve this problem as I just cannot edit maps in ArcGIS Pro! For the time being, I made my maps in Pro and performed the editing in ArcGIS 10.5.1. But on import, I encountered alignments problem and I am now try to edit the map 100% with ArcGIS Pro. Please help! ... View more

Tried "" or '' but still no luck! Tested it on shapefile and FGDB feature class as well. As for the field calculator expression, it looks empty but actually it is not. It always does not show for no reason. The problem comes from the None or Null format in the date field because if I set any date instead, it does work. Also, it works in former ArcToolbox. Is it related to Python 3 ? There must be a solution... ... View more

Thanks Dan. It worked that way. It means ArcGIS Pro is not good at symbolizing coded values! It displays the proper name aside the color in the table of contents but seems to look for the coded value for actually applying the color... ... View more

Hi, With Unique Values renderer, I am just trying to mimics a Definition Query. I mean selecting only one country in COUNTRY_NAME and apply a color, and use another color for "all other values" Unfortunately, countries seems to be stored as coded values in FGDB and display as names in the attributes tables. As a result, ArcGIS Pro seems confused and do not apply any color as shown below. Oman should displays orange! I cannot figure out the problem... ... View more

Hi, I finally tested thoroughly the new Annotation tools in ArcGIS Pro 2.1, leader lines in particular. It works but editing is rather slow and not slick. Moreover, from the Annotation pane, you cannot really add and remove leader lines. You have to go through Styles pane and create Text styles in order to add and/or remove leader lines in labels. Also, switching between Annotation tool (from the toolbar) to Move or Attributes and back to Select and so on... It is somehow cumbersome and it clearly shows a usability problem. To me, it looks like there is room for improvement... ... View more

The post from ArcGIS Pro 1.4 is interesting as the "Round edges" global effect is not available in Pro 2.0 ! Will plan to upgrade to Pro 2.1 and test this "Round edges" global effect... along with other things. ... View more

Tried to encapsulate the print statment but no luck. Stacked labels are not justified "Center" It did not produced an error though! ... View more

Tried it! But not luck. Nothing happened on the map. ... View more

Hi, It looks like you need a Python code block with "if" conditional statments to decode the first 3 letters of your ATTRIBUTE field, as shown here: All details available here: Specify text for labels—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Desktop  With the <FNT></FNT> pseudo HTML tages, you can apply some formatting to the labels such as color, size, police... but it will be limited. To me, it won't be possible to apply Halo, Callout and any advanced formatting... Label classes as you did was the right way. Hope this help ... View more
