Flipping the direction of selected features

Available with Production Mapping license.

The Production Flip Selection tool allows you to reverse the direction of multiple polyline features at one time. For example, when one or more polyline features that have been digitized from left to right are selected, clicking the Production Flip Selection tool changes the linear flow to right to left.

  1. Start ArcMap.
  2. Load data in the map if necessary.
  3. On the main menu, click Customize > Toolbars > Production Editing.
  4. On the main menu, click Customize > Toolbars > Production Editing Advanced.
  5. Click the Production Start Editing button Production Start Editing 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.

    Tip:

    If the Create Attributes, Update Attributes, or Metadata Attributes window does not appear when you start an edit session, click the Show/Hide Attributes button Show/Hide Attributes on the Manage Features window.

  6. Click the Select Features button Select Features By Rectangle and select at least one polyline feature.
  7. Click the Production Flip Selection button Production Flip Selection on the Production Editing Advanced toolbar.

The direction of the selected feature is reversed.
