Disperse Markers

Finds representation markers that are overlapping or too close to one another, based on symbology and reference scale, and spreads them apart based on a minimum spacing and dispersal pattern.

1.  Input Point Features With Marker Representations

The input point feature layer containing marker representations.

2.  Minimum Spacing

The minimum separation distance between individual markers, in page units. A distance must be specified and must be greater than or equal to zero. When a positive value is specified, markers will be separated by that value; when a value of zero is specified, markers will be touching. The default page unit is Points.

3.  Dispersal Pattern (optional)

Specifies the pattern in which the dispersed representation markers are placed. A group of markers will have a center of mass derived from the locations of all markers in the group. The center of mass is then used as the anchor point around which the dispersal pattern operates.

1. EXPANDED—The general pattern of the markers will be maintained as they are spread apart. Markers that were exactly coincident are dispersed to a circle around their center of mass. This is the default.
2. RANDOM—Representation markers are placed around the center of mass in a random dispersal that respects the minimum spacing.
3. SQUARES—Representation markers are placed in multiple square rings around the center of mass, ensuring that all markers are placed as closely together as allowable by the minimum spacing parameter.
4. RINGS—Representation markers are placed in multiple circular rings around the center of mass, ensuring that all markers are placed as closely together as allowable by the minimum spacing parameter.
5. SQUARE—Representation markers are placed evenly around the center of mass in a single square pattern.
6. RING—Representation markers are placed evenly around the center of mass in a single circular pattern.
7. CROSS—Representation markers are spaced evenly on horizontal and vertical axes originating from the center of mass.
8. X_CROSS—Representation markers are spaced evenly on 45° axes originating from the center of mass.

Set Representation Control Point At Intersect

Set Representation Control Point At Intersect

This tool is commonly used to synchronize boundary symbology on adjacent polygons. It creates a representation control point at vertices that are shared by one or more line or polygon features.

1.  Input Features With Stroke Or Fill Representations

The input line or polygon feature layer symbolized with a feature class representation.

2.  Input Secondary Features (optional)

The feature layer with coincident features. These features can be from a geodatabase, shapefile, or coverage.

Set Representation Control Point By Angle 

How to use Set Representation Control Point By Angle Tool in ArcToolbox ArcMap ArcGIS??

Set Representation Control Point By Angle Tool

Set Representation Control Point By Angle Tool, Cartographic Refinement Toolset, Cartography Toolbox

Set Representation Control Point By Angle

Places a representation control point at vertices along a line or polygon outline where the angle created by a change in line direction is less than or equal to a specified maximum angle.

1.  Input Features With Representations

The input feature layer containing line or polygon representations.

2.  Maximum Angle (decimal degrees)

The angle used to determine whether or not a vertex along a line or polygon outline will be set as a representation control point. The angle value must be greater than zero and less than 180 decimal degrees.
