Hi, Adding to ArcGIS Pro We are now at ArcGIS Pro 2.5 and I am still looking for setting an user-defined angle for label and/or annotation for high quality maps. Is there a technique/workaround to set an angle for the leader line? (not the Angle field in the Annotation Feature Class which rotate text). I looked at all leader line properties and cannot figure out if it is possible to set an user-defined angle. I also looked deeper in the leader line symbol in Callout > Leader line symbol > drop-down menu Format line symbol > structure tab for Global effects to tweak the leader line... but no luck so far. Does anybody manage to set an user-defined angle on leader line for Background Callout? Thanks

Hi Nathaniel, I read careful your message and looked at the ESRI "Set an anchor point position for callouts" documentation. For your information, it all looks ok with me with ArcGIS Pro 2.5. The documentation matches dialog panes options. See below. Make sure Maplex Label Engine is on. With Maplex Label Engine is on: With Maplex Label Engine is off:

Hi, I am back on this thread I started 2 years ago. Luckily, some issues mentioned previously have been partly fixed, fixed and/or improve over time. Recently I upgraded to ArcGIS 2.5. However, I can still notice and experience how slow ArcGIS Pro is for moving annotation or even slower when editing properties in the Annotation Pane. I do have some patience, but I fell it is just unacceptable! If you edit the annotation text and/or change properties such as align or anything else, it just takes ages when you click Apply. The same delay occurs when clicking another annotation to edit in Annotation Pane. To some extent, moving annotation with the Annotation tool is slow. Any time you move an annotation and click Finish (or press F2), it takes about 6-8 sec to process (probably updating spatial index or anything else). As a result, it can easily take about 3 x 6-8 sec to perform some editing or adjustment to a single annotation. For info, my annotation feature class contains 480 annotations in a single subtype (more subtypes mean even more time to edit, about 40-50 sec per edit) Any performance improvement would be appreciated.

Hi, Just upgraded to ArcGIS Pro 2.5 yesterday. For your own information, the point symbol Callout in the Labeling Properties now has options to edit a symbol. It does not have to be stored in Gallery beforehand. (could not attached screenshots!)

Thanks. In ArcMap, I used to convert my symbols as graphics but not stored in graphic layers but in Annotation Feature Class instead. It was a workaround but I did it for years and I could store my symbols into FGDB. Because graphic layers do not exist in Pro, I was stuck. But I did not think about that way, I mean to use Point Callout for symbols and convert into labels stored in Annotation Feature Class. It did work! And symbols look editable, possible to move around... I will try to make a map like this and see how it goes. Really appreciated!

Hi, I started this thread 2 years ago when I upgraded to ArcGIS Pro. I made a long way since and appreciate ArcGIS Pro in general. BUT for authoring map symbols, things are perhaps worse now! Would you believe... I am currently with Pro 2.4.3 and I cannot simply move my point symbols (.emf file symbols) to deal with overlaps and so on... It is terrible. Unless I miss something new, I feel stuck. Does anybody has find a workaround?

Hi, AS a follow-up, I finally managed to use Query Layer with a sde.st_geometry spatial field as explained above and use "Let ArcGIS Pro discover spatial properties for the layer" when setting the Query Layer propoerties. It all works. The problem was in unique identifier! My Oracle views have 12 digits number and ESRI can map up to 10 digits as explained here: FAQ: Does ArcSDE support ObjectID field as 64-bit integers in Oracle? ArcGIS was confused and lost to display my query layers. I had to convert my unique identifier to text (instead of Long or Integer as ArcGIS would prefer) in Oracles views in order to fix the problem...

Hi, With Oracle views, I am trying to create Query Layer. Once I selected the unique identifier, the table shows in Contents but right-click to open the table gives an "ORA-01455: converting column overflows integer datatype error" Apparently, it is a well-known limitation of Oracle field NUMBER(38) mapping to ESRI Long but with 10 digits only: FAQ: Does ArcSDE support ObjectID field as 64-bit integers in Oracle? My unique identifier are 12 digits long. How can I open Query Layer tables with such unique identifier? If the problem is known, there must be a solution. Would converting unique identifier column in Oracle to text a good solution? Thanks

In ArcMap 10.5.1, the Catalog does show the proper Point icon for points which is better than an empty icon in ArcGIS Pro 2.4.2.Right-clicking the view, either in ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro, both describes the views correctly as: However, the "Let ArcGIS Pro discover spatial properties for the layer" does not seem to work. However, if you leave the spatial field in the Query box and select "Define spatial properties for the layer", it does Validate and in the Next section, it is possible to specify Spatial Properties manually (it is not greyed out) as Point with proper CRS and thus use the spatial field from the Query. But unfortunately, it ends up with the following error Not nice! It probably becomes an ESRI issue to fix...

Yes, I can see the SHAPE spatial field in SQL Developper, as shown in the screenshot above, as ST_GEOMETRY(). But from the Catalog, I cannot right-click and Add to Current Map. I get an error. It's bizarre!

Today: sde.st_geometry(amh.LONGITUDE_DEC_DEG,amh.LATITUDE_DEC_DEG,null,null,4326) SHAPE, did work and it looks like the SHAPE spatial field is created with my X and Y coordinates: When creating a Query Layer in ArcGIS Pro, I can validate my query, choose Unique Identifier in the next step and the view opens in ArcGIS like a table. It doesn't read the SHAPE spatial column to display the data! Should I create a spatial index on this field to use it? Or if the syntax to build the SHAPE point spatial field incorrect? For info, the Catalog display the view as: Meaning ArcGIS is not able to determine the content of the view... Table of Feature Class... Moreover, if I try to CAST the coordinates as: sde.st_geometry(CAST(amh.LONGITUDE_DEC_DEG) as decimal(38,8),CAST(amh.LATITUDE_DEC_DEG) as decimal(38,8),null,null,4326) SHAPE, I get ORA-00905: missing keyword error in SQL Developper... I wonder if specifying NUMBER(38,8) for coordinates would help to use them as double to get a valid spatial field... Any guess?

My Oracle instance is EXTPROC enabled and I can build ST_Geometry objects. select sde.st_geometry('point('amh.LONGITUDE_DEC_DEG','amh.LATITUDE_DEC_DEG'),4326') SHAPE, OR select sde.st_geometry(amh.LONGITUDE_DEC_DEG,amh.LATITUDE_DEC_DEG,null,null,4326) SHAPE, ...should work to create the spatial column as Point in my view, but I still get an Oracle ORA-00907 silling error on "missing right parenthesis". Should I cast my X and Y number column to NUMBER(38,8) for example? Or is there anything alse wrong in the syntax? Thanks for you help, I am sure I will get this one sorted out today...

In addition to my question posted yesterday using the geoprocessing tool XY Table to Point to create a Point Feature Class, I tried the Make XY Event Layer tool to keep the layer live and connection to my Query Layer. Unfortunately, my Event layer in the Table of Content do not display anything and if I try to open Attributes Table, I get a DBMS error ORA-01455: converting column overflows integer datatype. Perhaps, I need to ensure all my number column in my views are readable by ArcGIS clients... George, you mentioned to have a spatial field in my Oracle table. Why not. Can I build a ST_Geometry or SDO_Geometry spatial field from my X and Y coordinates columns in my views? What would be the syntax? Thanks

Hi, In an Oracle DBMS, I created views with X and Y coordinates in columns, in WGS84. In ArcGIS Pro, I tried to create a Query Layer in order to display live and up-to-date datasets. I managed to select an integer unique identifier and the query layer opens as a Table in the Content. However, I'd like to display it as a point layer in the Content. If I try to right-click the table and Display XY, it opens the geoprocessing tool XY Table to Point which would create a copy of the data. This is not what I am expecting. How to display point layer XY, stored in columns, in a Query Layer based on an Oracle view (with no spatial column) ? Thanks PS: I changed this question to ArcGIS Pro instead of Managing Data as it looks more appropriate
