Updating templates in the view

Available with Production Mapping license.

When updates are made to feature templates, you can overwrite the view in which they are saved. This updates the attribute value combinations associated with the stored templates in the view. For example, if you have updated the attributes for any of the feature templates associated with your product specification, those attributes would overwrite what is currently configured for the view.

1. Start ArcMap.
2. If necessary, load data in the map.
3. On the main menu, click Customize > Toolbars > Production Editing.
4. Click the Production Start Editing button on the Production Editing toolbar.

   Note:

   The Manage Features and Create Attributes, Update Attributes, or Metadata Attributes windows automatically appear when you start an edit session using the Production Start Editing tool.
