Hi Susan, To achieve this, you must create a relationship class between your features and the related table. Then, both the feature class and the related table MUST be present in the MXD when publishing your feature service. Everything should be good from that point. From online help: Feature services also allow queries on related data. For example, a published map document can have layers and tables that are related through geodatabase relationship classes. In this case, the feature service allows queries on a layer to return objects from the related layer or table. Note that to support queries that return related objects, both the table and the layer involved in the relationship class must be in the published map document. If either the origin and/or destination layer or table is not included in the map document, the relationship is ignored by the feature service. ArcGIS Help 10.1 Cheers, Todd

Hi Ben, This issue arises if you're using a Python distribution that wasn't installed by the ArcGIS installation process. The distribution won't have access to the arcpy modules by default as they are provided by ArcGIS and not Python, so one solution is to copy them over yourself. See the section titled "Accessing Arcpy functions from another Python" in the following link: Locating Python, adding to Path and accessing Arcpy | Python, GIS and stuff... Also some other good general Python installation notes there, especially with including your Python path in the Windows path listings. Cheers, Todd

Hi Rosalind, ArcGIS will read X and Y coordinate values from a table, but the X and Y must be in different columns (unless you're willing to do some parsing with Python - a little more advanced). If you're set up with X and Y in different columns, but you have multiple locations within the same row, you can create multiple point feature classes based off of each entry (ie one point FC for home, one for work, etc) all based off the columns for that FC.

Part of the Desktop suite of editing tools. The error is with the source data itself and not with anything the server is doing. It's trying to create a linear reference to "route" you through the network, but it's having issues with 3D true curves. I would get in contact with your data custodian/editor/owner and pass the previous info on to them. They will need to edit the data directly.

This may seem stupid, but have you tried closing ArcGIS and all your connections, and re-opening everything fresh to see if that does anything? Also, if you bring your layer into a new MXD, does it display at all scale levels normally?

Hi Britt. I've tried to answer this at another location Error "Cannot do 3D operations on curved segments" which offers an option to solve this, but I cannot for the life of me find "official" documentation as to why it's not allowed either. Maybe someone will chime in between the 2 posts with more info. Cheers, Todd

Hi Andrew, Unfortunately, you're not the only one with this issue. See True Curves as a Complex Edge in a Geometric Network from 2012. From what I've read, there have been issues going back a while with not being able to linear reference in 3D with true curves. The best solution I've seen to date is to generalize all your true curves using the Densify_Editing tool. See ArcGIS Help (10.2, 10.2.1, and 10.2.2) for more info. Hope this helps!

Hi Wolfgang, Check to see if there are Scale Ranges set on your data and your annotation. If you're zoomed in or out too far and these are set, the data and/or annotation won't display. Right click the layer and hover over VISIBLE SCALE RANGES and if the CLEAR SCALE RANGE setting is NOT greyed out, then you have a visible scale range applied to your data. You can also see this if you right click your layer and go in to PROPERTIES, and view the GENERAL tab, under the SCALE RANGES heading. This property can also be set independently on your labels, within the LABELS tab of your layer properties. Hope this helps!

As a note, if you're just copying the rasters exactly as they are (no change to compression, format, etc), then the arcpy.Copy_management might be the better tool. It's faster (I've seen 30sec vs 3 mins for TIF), still copies all the related files (ovr, etc), and I've seen the arcpy.CopyRaster_management tool change your file sizes due to the fact that raster pyramid creation is set to ON by default. You would have to make sure your environment settings are changed if you want to avoid this.

Hi Scott, Thanks for the advice, I was starting to think that this one was lost to the times. I'm glad the warnings for UNC aren't a huge deal, as we'll have to reference that way because our storage device is a fibre channel connection from the server, not actually on the server itself... so most of the data we reference on the server is accessed through this UNC (not too worried about the bandwidth over fibre). Thanks again for the confirmation.

Ben, Thanks for more info. If you're using Windows, os.startfile() shouldn't be giving you any issues, and like you said, it starts Google Earth fine (if kml/kmz is associated with that program within windows as the default program). Is there anything else in your code after the os.startfile() is called?

‎06-05-2015

Hi Anthony, I'm thinking we'd need to see your code to be able to fully interpret what may be causing your locking issues. Many things could be at play here, especially with all the changes from 10 to 10.1.

Do you want to open the KML in your current MXD in ArcMap? Or using an outside program like Google Earth?

Hi Pavan, There's a great resource located at Identify DEM raster | ArcGIS for Developers that should set you on the right track. It's showing you how to set it up for a dynamic map layer, but the same setup should function on an image service - if you've set the service up to enable access to the pixel values in your mosaic dataset. See "Image Service Capabilities" at ArcGIS Help 10.1 for more info. Cheers, Todd

You can use the FeatureLayer.queryAttachmentInfos() method to return information about a feature layer's attachments, including the AttachmentID. I would probably stick this under a FeatureLayer.hasattachments() call (boolean true/false) to make sure it has attachments first. More info can be found here FeatureLayer | API Reference | ArcGIS API for JavaScript
