Append Annotation Feature Classes

Creates a geodatabase annotation feature class or appends to an existing annotation feature class by combining annotation from multiple input geodatabase annotation feature classes into a single feature class with annotation classes.

1.    Input features

The input annotation features that will form an annotation class in the output feature class.

2.    Output feature class

A new annotation feature class that will contain an annotation class for each input annotation feature class.

3.    Reference scale

The reference scale set in the output feature class. Input features created at a different reference scale will be transformed to match this output reference scale.

4.    Create a single annotation class (optional)

Specifies how annotation features will be added to the output feature class.

  1. Checked—All annotation features will be aggregated into one annotation class in the output feature class.
  2. Unchecked—Separate annotation classes will be created for each input annotation class in the output feature class. This is the default.

5.    Require symbols to be selected from the symbol table (optional)

Specifies how symbols can be selected for newly created annotation features.

  1. Checked—Restricts the creation of annotation features to the list of symbols in the symbol collection of the output feature class.
  2. Unchecked—Allows annotation features to be created with any symbology. This is the default.

6.    Create annotation when new features are added (Feature-linked only) (optional)

This parameter is only available with ArcGIS Desktop Standard and ArcGIS Desktop Advanced licenses.

Specifies whether feature-linked annotation will be created when a feature is added.

  1. Checked—Feature-linked annotation will be created using the label engine when a linked feature is created. This is the default.
  2. Unchecked—Feature-linked annotation will not be created when a feature is created.

7.    Update annotation when the shape of the linked feature is modified (Feature-linked only) (optional)

This parameter is only available with ArcGIS Desktop Standard and ArcGIS Desktop Advanced licenses.

Specifies whether feature-linked annotation is updated when a linked feature changes.

  1. Checked—Feature-linked annotation will be updated using the label engine when a linked feature changes. This is the default.
  2. Unchecked—Feature-linked annotation will not be updated when a linked feature changes.

Calculate Default Spatial Grid Index

Calculates a set of valid grid index values (spatial grid 1, 2, and 3) for the input features. Grid index values will be calculated even if the input features do not support spatial grid indexing.

1.    Input Features

The features for which a valid spatial grid index will be calculated.

Calculate Default XY Tolerance

Calculate Default XY Tolerance Tool, feature Class Toolset, Data Management Tools Toolbox

 

Calculate Default XY Tolerance

Calculates a default XY tolerance by examining the spatial reference and the extent of the feature class.

With geodatabase feature classes, the value returned by this tool will be identical to the XY Tolerance property on a geodatabase feature class or dataset, or the cluster tolerance of a topology. With non-geodatabase feature classes such as coverage feature classes, shape files, or CAD feature classes, the value will be based on the default tolerance of the feature class' spatial reference.

The terms XY Tolerance and Cluster Tolerance are synonymous. You will see the usage of Cluster Tolerance in topology, python script, and ArcGIS prior to the 9.2 Release. The name of this tool (used in scripting) is CalculateDefaultClusterTolerance.

XY tolerance is also available in scripting through the XYTolerance property of a SpatialReference object. A SpatialReference object can be created by describing a feature class.

1.    Input Features

The feature class for which the default XY tolerance will be calculated.
