)

ArcGIS.Core.CalledOnWrongThreadException	This method must be called within the lambda passed to QueuedTask.Run.

Remarks

This method was created so developers have a way to uniquely assign a value or multiple values to an element that can not be changed in the UI and therefore provides a predictable way to find an element. Each entry has a key/value pair and you find the value using the GetCustomProperty method. You can overwrite values simply be reentering the same key with a different value. There are no methods to remove keys.

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 11 Home, Pro, Enterprise (64 bit)

ArcGIS Pro version: 3.0 or higher.
