When trying to add a Basemap or Layer from the Ribbon, there are no choices available in the drop down. They seem to have disappeared! Tested on the latest 2505 build on two different networks. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

I'm trying to create a tool that works just like the "Identify Route Locations" tool within ArcMap except I want to get the measure value so I can pass it to an external program. Is there any ESRI code (C# preferred) example to accomplish something like this?

You sir are a gentlemen and a scholar. That's exactly what I was looking for. If anyone is interested, here's my updated code for a script tool with a multivalue parameter. import arcpy latLonRef = "Coordinate Systems\Geographic Coordinate Systems\World\WGS 1984.prj" featureClasses = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0) featureClassesList = featureClasses.split(";") for featureClass in featureClassesList: arcpy.AddMessage("Calculating XY coordinates for: " + featureClass) arcpy.AddField_management(featureClass, "LAT", "DOUBLE") arcpy.AddField_management(featureClass, "LON", "DOUBLE") rows = arcpy.UpdateCursor(featureClass, "", latLonRef) for row in rows: feat = row.shape coord = feat.getPart() lon = coord.X lat = coord.Y row.LAT = lat row.LON = lon rows.updateRow(row) #arcpy.AddMessage(str(lat) + ", " + str(lon))

I have a Python script that adds two fields and populates them with the X coordinate and Y coordinate of the centroid of the features. The feature class is in one projection, but I would like the centroid coordinates to be displayed in Lat/Lon. Is there a way to specify the coordinate system when you write something like !Shape.centroid! I know when you right click on a field in the attribute table and select "Calculate Geometry" that you have the option to use the Data Frame's coordinate system. Is there a way to do this programmatically? I've tried this function call and definition: Lat(!Shape!) def Lat(shape): arcpy.env.cartographicCoordinateSystem = "Coordinate Systems\Geographic Coordinate\Systems\World\WGS 1984.prj" lat = shape.centroid.x return lat but it returns the x coordinate in the the same projection of the feature class rather than longitude.
