Additional Information

The scripts provided to reproduce the issue works as expected. #mf.panToExtent(desc.extent) - This pans correctly and does not change scale. mf.camera.setExtent(desc.extent) - This correctly sets the map frame extent. mf.zoomToAllLayers(desc.extent) - This is wrong syntax. There are two optional input parameters that consider selection and symbol when zooming. Passing in an extent object throws an error. Also, when writing a script where the application update can be seen appropriately, the ArcGISProject('CURRENT') keyword must be used and not reference a project on a disk. If the project on a disk needs to be updated, then pass in the full path, save the changes and then open the updated project.
