Has anyone else experienced this issue with the Connect Origins to Destinations tool? We have a layer with 500 features representing customers, and a layer representing 50 stores. Each customer feature has a "PickupStore" field, and each store has a "Name" field. The parameters are set to the most basic, with Line Distance as the measure, Straight Line as the route shape, and "Include Route Layers" is unchecked.  The tool runs and finishes, and throws the error "Some origins were not connected to their paired destinations. Check the Status field in output unassigned origins and unassigned destinations layers for more information." One problem is that we can't check the status field in the output, because the output is never created. ESRI Technical Support cannot provide a list of circumstances that produce this error message. Help is much appreciated, thank you ... View more

When streaming line features in Field Maps, the screen is required to be on. Our business users often find that they need both hands free when navigating uneven terrain, such as following a line feature through snowpack or dense forest.  The ability to lock the screen to prevent input when line streaming would prevent our users from losing data due to accidental touches from branches, raindrops and clothing. Avenza Maps has developed this feature, and users of that app within our business report that the feature is a boost to productivity. Furthermore, it would allow them to store the device in a pocket or back while streaming - an important safety improvement when working over rough ground. ... View more

I just closed a case with an ESRI analyst; we determined that while raster datasets are supported in MMPKs, the entire MMPK and raster must be in the Web Mercator Auxiliary Sphere projection for the raster to display. This interrupts our workflows because the raster datasets must be packaged into TPKs to be served in a custom projection MMPK, and this can be a time-consuming task. Additionally, TPKs do not allow for a legend to appear in Explorer. Our workaround for the legend is to include a layer with one feature the size of the map extent, and add a JPEG attachment with a legend. It is a cumbersome and unintuitive experience for the end user.  Is displaying raster data in custom projections within MMPKs, with a legend on the roadmap for future releases? Thank you Andrew ...

I'm working on a collector app, and I'm having some problems with symbology. Our field data collectors need to be able to add a line feature in collector and have it show an arrow at the end of the line, in the direction it was drawn. So far when the field data collectors add a line, the arrow is shown on the web map in the browser, but on the mobile device the line does not have the arrow at the end.  Is AGOL downgrading the symbology when it displays the map on the mobile device? Does anyone know of a workaround to have the arrows appear on the mobile device? Many thanks Andrew ... View more
