The Configure Attribute Table dialog box only shows the first seven or so letters of each field name. Cannot tell which field name is what even by hovering over the field name.

Privileges for geodatabases in SQL Server Privileges for geodatabases in SQL Server—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop If you want data creators to be able to see existing users and roles in the database, you must grant them VIEW DEFINITION privileges on the database. (This is granted automatically to users you create using the Create Database User geoprocessing tool.)

Support editing true curve geometries in Web AppBuilder True curve geometries are not supported by web clients. If your data has true curves, the geometry will be returned as a densified version of the true curve. If you enable this option, it will allow densified features to be applied in place of the true curve. If you disable this option, attempting to edit the true curve geometry will return an error.

No restore options in AGOL that I have seen and the best option so far is the "Delete Protection" option when you edit the details of the item(s). Delete Protection Disabled Prevent this item from being accidentally deleted.

The documentation also notes they will not be used in the geocode service. Please add this too.

Hi Matt, That should not be a problem as long as your web adaptors are on separate servers and your config-store is on a separate file server.

I'm not sure if this will prevent this issue but we use a weekly maintenance window to compress our protected DEFAULT version to state zero. This requires the editors to reconcile and post before the maintenance kicks off. All versions are deleted that night. Versions needed for applications are recreated with a batch file of sde commands after compression to state zero. The desktop editors create a fresh private version when they begin work the following morning. The same maintenance workflow is required for service packs, upgrades, etc.This has helped maintain the best performance and reduce strange errors like orphaned records.

Referring to the folders in ArcGIS Server Manager 10.2, unfortunately there is no way to move the services between these folders. The services will have to be republished to the desired folder.

Still have to add the Buffer Wizard Tool in 10.2 Reference: http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/9690-Buffer-Wizard-tool Can we get it built in to the Geoprocessing pull-down just under the existing Buffer item?

Allow support for virtual / computed fields in Oracle/SQL Server versioned geodatabases. This could allow the GIS user to symbolize from old to no with graduated symbols based on date fields. The GIS user should be able to calculate the date field as an epoch date to be used for symbols color ramp and the GIS user should not need DBA security to modify a central geodatabase schema. And, still allow versioned editing, compression to state zero, etc. as usual.

The ArcGIS.com Map Viewer has this support so pleaes add support and an out of the box widget to the Operations Dashboard.

Add a COGO Traverse widget that supports true curves to the Operations Dashboard for ArcGIS. This would get us one step closer to a complete web browser editing workflow.
