Improving everyday work<\/h2>\n

ArcGIS Pro offers hundreds of powerful commands and tools, and most of them live on the ribbon or in context menus. That works well for discoverability, but many users spend their day working inside a limited number of views\u2014maps, attribute tables, layouts\u2014and perform familiar tasks rather than exploring novel workflows.<\/p>\n

When we talk with users who work in ArcGIS Pro for hours every day, it\u2019s clear that while application performance is important, how easily you can get to the tools you need while staying focused on the task at hand is even more important to complete everyday workflows that often have an element of repetition.<\/p>\n

That feedback has come through clearly in usability studies, support cases, and direct conversations: you want fewer context switches, less mouse travel, and fewer trips back to the ribbon.<\/p>\n

Real user requests<\/h2>\n

Increased flexibility around accessing frequently used commands and how those interact with views has been requested through two specific ArcGIS Pro ideas:
\nAbility to customize the attribute table toolbar (add\/remove tools from the toolbar)<\/a>
\nReal multi-monitor support: include ribbon, QAT with floating views<\/a><\/p>\n

And here are some quotes from real users like you:<\/p>\n

\u201cI love the toolbar in the attribute table\u2014why can\u2019t I customize it or have something similar in other views?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t like having the Delete<\/strong> button right next to the Clear<\/strong> button. It scares me and I wish I could just remove it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI often use the Related Data<\/strong> button and having to click on the hamburger menu to access it is quite cumbersome since it is at the far right of the table and also requires an unneeded extra click.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMoving the Fields View<\/strong> button to the table window makes sense to me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAdding a “save” button to the Fields pane will simply remind the user that they may want to save before closing the window. Currently it is easy to be making edits to the fields and change which tab of the ribbon you are looking at, especially when using a floating pane for a table on a different monitor<\/em>. You then must go back to the correct tab if you want to save it without closing the fields pane.\u201d<\/p>\n

Customize toolbars on views: new in ArcGIS Pro 3.7<\/h2>\n

ArcGIS Pro 3.7 introduces a new view-based toolbar experience that brings the flexibility you\u2019ve been looking for. With the new experience, you can:<\/p>\n
