Requirements

The requirements for the machine on which you develop your ArcGIS Pro add-ins are listed here.

ArcGIS Pro

• ArcGIS Pro 3.3

Supported platforms

• Windows 11 (Home, Pro, Enterprise) (64 bit)
• Windows 10 (Home, Pro, Enterprise) (64 bit)

ArcGIS Pro system requirements

Supported .NET

• Microsoft .NET Runtime 8.0.3 or better. Download .NET 8.0
• To upgrade an ArcGIS Pro SDK project build with release 3.0-3.2 to release 3.3 (.NET 8.0), see the ProGuide .NET 8 Upgrade

Supported IDEs

• Visual Studio 2022 (v17.8 or higher)
  • Community Edition
  • Professional Edition
  • Enterprise Edition

We recommend installing a minimum version of 17.8 of Visual Studio. This version includes .NET 8 as part of the Visual Studio 2022 install (.NET SDK 8.0.3). Installing a lesser version of Visual Studio 2022 may require a separate install of the .NET Desktop Runtime 8.0.3 and/or .NET SDK 8.0.3. Consult Microsoft’s Download .NET 8.0 site for more information.

Third party assemblies

Newtonsoft Json

• At 3.3, ArcGIS Pro is using version 13.0.3.27908 of the Newtonsoft Json NuGet. If you require Newtonsoft NuGet in your add-ins it is recommended to use the same version.

WebView2

• Add-in developers can use the new WebViewBrowser control based on Microsoft Edge WebView2. Consult the WebView2 manifest in the Pro bin\WebView folder for the current WebView2 fixed version runtime in use by ArcGIS Pro.

Installing ArcGIS Pro SDK for .NET

ArcGIS Pro SDK for .NET can be downloaded and installed from within Visual Studio.

Method GetExtent() of FeatureClassDefinition not working anymore

I used GetExtent() to get extent of my feature class in my addin which was working fine earlier with Arcgis desktop 2.4. When I updated the version of my arcgis to 2.8, My GetExtent in addin is now returning NAN.

Any clue why is it broken with version update.
Any help is appreciated.

Zip dload fails

Nevermind - using desktop instead.

How to create an xaml map (CaliforniaStartPage)?

In the CaliforniaStartPage sample (StartPage Samples), the California map is described in xaml (in CaliforniaCounties.xaml).
How to convert an existing feature to xaml polyline path easily?

Contingent Values

Hi there,

I've been working with the InspectTool sample and I've noticed it does not adhere to the Continent Values set up in a Feature Layer. Is this by design? For example, do I need to build in the contingent logic into the code? Or should this tool follow the parent rules as set out in Pro? For context, if I add or modify attributes using out of the box tools in Pro, the contingency values are adhered to.

Thanks,
Chris

DockPane Simple example in VB.NET

I'm trying to convert the DockpaneSimple sample to VB.NET. Not able to compile due to 2 issues in BookmarkDockpaneViewModel.cs:

1. The line 82
   _retrieveMapsCommand = new RelayCommand(() => RetrieveMaps(), () => true);
   converted to
   _retrieveMapsCommand = New RelayCommand(Function() RetrieveMaps(), Function() True)
   The compiler is complaining that the expression RetrieveMaps() does not produce a value. RetrieveMaps() is a sub, so it doesn't return a value.

2. The line 96
   ProjectItemsChangedEvent.Subscribe(OnProjectCollectionChanged, false);
   converted to
   ProjectItemsChangedEvent.Subscribe(OnProjectCollectionChanged, False)
   The compiler is complaining that an argument was not specified for parameter 'args' of Private Sub OnProjectCollectionChanged.

CoreHost samples don't work - Unable to load DLL 'CoreInterop.dll'

Hi,

I'm getting an error while executing the samples about the "[CoreHost] (https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk-community-samples/tree/master/CoreHost)" module.

I downloaded all the samples from the repository (https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk-community-samples) and focused on the "CoreHostSample (https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk-community-samples/tree/master/CoreHost/CoreHostSample)" project, updated the ArcGIS.Core.dll and ArcGIS.CoreHost.dll references and changed the GDB file path for an existing one. Then I execute the project and, while debugging the file Program.cs, the method "Host.Initialize();" work fine but on the next executing line "using (var gdb = new Geodatabase(new FileGeodatabaseConnectionPath(new Uri(gdbPath, UriKind.Absolute)))) {", I get the following error:

System.DllNotFoundException
  HResult=0x80131524
  Message=System.DllNotFoundException: 'Unable to load DLL 'CoreInterop.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT : 0x8007007E)'
  Source=ArcGIS.Core

The error says that the DLL 'CoreInterop.dll' is missing but the documentation never mentioned that we have to add a reference to this DLL, it only refers to "ArcGIS.Core.dll" and "ArcGIS.CoreHost.dll". And even if I add the reference of the library "CoreInterop.dll" myself, it doesn't work.

I followed all the instructions in this link:
https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk-community-samples/tree/master/CoreHost/CoreHostSample
and here:
https://github.com/esri/arcgis-pro-sdk/wiki/proconcepts-CoreHost

I'm using:

• Visual Studio Community 2017 (v15.7.5) with .NET Framework 4.6.1
• ArcGIS Pro 2.2.1
• ArcGIS Pro SDK for .NET 2.2.0.12813

Do these samples (about the "CoreHost" module) work for you? Can anybody help me with this issue please?

Best regards,
Fabian

Replace Sketch tool in Editing

Replace sketch not working any more. The command is in the sketch dropdown but doesn't do anything. Tried it on two computers same thing. It used to work and I haven't changed anything with the system. I deleted, downloaded the zip and started over with the same result. What gives? Thanks ,cob

AddIn info

There used to a great helper file to programmatically get info about your own Addin here https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-pro-sdk-community-samples/tree/master/Content/AddInInfoManager

I no longer see that available? Has some other functionality take its place?

Async Databinding using ArcGIS Pro SDK and MVVM?

Hello,

How can we bind data to datagrid (In dockpane) using Async programing in ArcGIS Pro SDk and MVVM as one of my process will take lot of time.

Please let me know if you can have any ideas or samples.

Thank you,

Regards,
Phanindra

Copy/Paste-sample selects wrong featurelayer

Not sure if this is relevant, but i'll give it a go. This concerns the "Copy/Paste"-sample .

When there is two layers in the TOC whose name starts the same, the first layer will be selected.

Say i have a Polyline-layer called "test_polyline" on the top of the TOC and Point-layer called "test" at the bottom, and the user has selected "test" for copying a point geometry into. The GetFeatureLayerAsync-method in Module1 will return the first layer which contains "test" which is "test_polyline".

I tried changing the code in Module1:203 to where it checks if the layers in the TOC contains the layerName to where it exactly matches:
var featureLayer = MapView.Active.Map.GetLayersAsFlattenedList().OfType<FeatureLayer>().Where(fl => fl.Name.Contains(layerName)).FirstOrDefault();

to

var featureLayer = MapView.Active.Map.GetLayersAsFlattenedList().OfType<FeatureLayer>().Where(fl => fl.Name == layerName).FirstOrDefault();

This is probably a fringe case and might add more problems, but it seemed to do the trick for my problem.

arcgis-pro-sdk-community-samples/Framework/CopyPaste/Module1.cs

Line 194 in 24c3224

private static async Task<FeatureLayer> GetFeatureLayerAsync (string layerName, GeometryType destinationGeomType)

Does these samples work for ArcGIS Pro 2.1.3 version as well..

Can some please confirm if these samples work for older version for ArcGIS as well

Arcgis Pro LineOffset not working

Although I have defined offset on lines in ArcGIS Pro environment, line offset definitions are not reflected in the style file resulting from the vector tile package produced.
I manually added “line-offset”: 2 parameter to each layer in the resulting style file (root.json).
When I draw the new style that I have prepared using the api, it does not use the line-offset parameter. The lines continue to intertwine on small scales.

Do you have a solution?

MapToolWithCustomPopup <empty>

The screen shot you have with this example show the header with "U.S. States (Generalized) - Oregon". When I run the tool it shows up as "U.S. States (Generalized) - <empty>". But in the guide it also shows up as <empty>. I don't see any way to change the header in the custom code so I would assume it should use the layer default display column.

Rendering and refreshing is still an issue.

According to the below a workaround is mentioned.

arcgis-pro-sdk-community-samples/Map-Authoring/CIMExamples/ChangeLayerDataSource.cs

Line 120 in 1d41811

////Please Read

But does not fully guarantee its refreshed properly.
Especially when using the EditOperation.Callback on the same DataConnection

Another half successful workaround is to use featureTable.SetDataConnection(featureTable.GetDataConnection(), true); which mostly refreshes the mapview

It works when license pointing to AGOL, but once I change to my local portal, it doesn't work.

Hi Esri,
Regarding "ShowLicense" sample.
When I am using local portal for pro licensing server, the response of /sharing/rest/portals/self?f=json doesn't include "appInfo" and "user" section which causes the process fails.

Bing

Code does not clone selection

This code clones the Active layout, not the layout selected.

Save Edits/Discard Edits window

If a stand alone table is not not open in a project, it will not be listed in the Layers/Sources list of pending edits after programmatic edits are made:

request

Not so much an issue, as a request: how difficult would it be to alter the Animation From Path sample to be able to follow a 3D polyline, meaning, shift the camera at each keyframe to take into account the Z dimension of the line? If the sample can't be readily edited to incorporate this, some guidance on how to do this would be most helpful. Thank you.

Markdown syntax not generating rendered content

The markdown content does not seem to be rendering properly.

README.md

• Headers are not rendering

• Tags are showing

This occurs on wiki pages as well.

Reference component from another add-in

Is it possible to add a component from another add-in to my current add-in project?

Like, if I want to create a new add-in that leverages functionality (a button, for example) that exists in another add-in that was created previously, how can that be done?
