Why won't lines from GPX simplify/generalize/smooth? What do you mean by "weren't working"? Did they perhaps give an error message, do nothing or give a poor result? If you want to count the number of vertices there is a Count Vertices tool available. |

Invalid Topology [Topoengine error] ArcGIS 10.1 @Hornbydd You may have overlooked "I've already ... checked and repaired geometry" in the Question but you are right that these are the logical first steps anytime "Invalid Topology" is seen in an error message. |

Setting More Than One Workspace Do you really need ArcPy to meet the requirement in your first Comment? Your data is in a File Geodatabase so if you converted your *_TYPE tables to domains then you would be able to use Validate on your data. |

Why won't lines from GPX simplify/generalize/smooth? Have you been trying the Generalize and Smooth tools from the Advanced Editing toolbar or something from the toolbox? How many vertices on a line are you calling a "big amount"? |

Arcpy to copy a layer in the ArcMap TOC, rename the copy, and paste back to TOC? I can understand the "not write to disc" requirement (see my Answer) in point 1 but I am unclear why you would want/expect data in in_memory workspaces to persist between ArcMap/ArcPy sessions (your point 2). |

Want to dissolve adjacent polygons but no common edges I think you must mean the rounded corners for which I do not currently have a suggestion. Note that I have just included an alternative in my Answer which should not suffer from rounded corners but requires and Advanced level license. |

File size limitation for shape file I assume the same applies but if you want the article updated you could try making a comment on it there and/or putting a request to your local support. |

Need help in ArcGIS Desktop: Automate the task The event layer should update when you refresh the map. Are you testing this interactively through ArcMap? |

Does QGIS support internationalization? I think you are looking for Unicode support. If a search on that term and your chosen software gets no/few hits then you could ask them if they support Arabic and, if not, move on. |

Refresh combo box in add-in Welcome to GIS-SE! One thing though - this would make a good Comment on the previous Answer but is itself not an Answer to the Question. |

Invalid Topology [Topoengine error] ArcGIS 10.1 I think the TopoEngine error message is spurious and really this is a resources issue. @blah238 advice has sometimes got me past this error so do that first. Other things I try are rebooting before retesting, running tool from ArcCatalog or a Python IDE or the command line, rather than ArcMap (if that is what you are doing) i.e. anything you can think of to reduce demand on resources while it runs. If still no joy, some sort of a tiling and tile visit strategy may be needed. Also, test on other (preferably more powerful) machines if that is an option. |

ArcMap - Opening the attribute table gives 'Could not load data from the data source' error In this case I would lean towards FME because it is they who are creating the data. However, if they are using the Open File Geodatabase API correctly then it may point back at Esri. I would recommend submitting the problem to support from both vendors who should then talk to each other and resolve where the problem lies. |

ArcMap - Opening the attribute table gives 'Could not load data from the data source' error Are you able to export the table from the TOC or Catalog window into a new one of the same format to see whether it "loses" whatever it thinks is wrong with it? |

ArcGIS 10 reports with map and data table My solution to this will most probably come from the 10.1 Help (the second code example) but it should apply equally well to 10.0. |

ArcGIS 10 reports with map and data table Are you using 10.1 or 10.0? Do you want page to be mostly map with simple report embedded or little map embedded on page that is mostly report? |

Refresh open attribute table in ArcMap (arcpy) I recommend doing both of the above but ArcGIS Ideas lets you monitor popularity & implementation progress much more easily than local support here. |

Search cursor stops selecting after two iterations It sounds like your process is "running out of resources" but what resources I cannot say. To avoid any ArcMap overhead have you tried running it, with the necessary modifications, from ArcCatalog, from an IDE or the DOS prompt? |
