ArcMap

Setup Solution Extent By Current Map View

Available with Business Analyst license.

Summary

Sets up the Territory Extent by using the extent of the current map view.

Usage

  • The Territory Extent hides part of the Territory Hierarchy by limiting the geometry extent.

    • Features having geometries not relevant to the Territory Extent settings will not be affected during territory level operation changes (Create, Balance, Improve and so on).
    • Out-of-Extent features can be changed only during whole Territory Hierarchy or Territory Solution operation changes (Remove Out-of-Extent Territories, Import Territories From Database, Remove Territory Level and so on).

Syntax

arcpy.td.SetupExtentByCurrentMapView_TD(in_territory_solution_layer, in_extent_calc_method)
ParameterExplanationData Type
in_territory_solution_layer

The Territory Solution layer to which the Territory Extent geometry is applied.

GP TD Layer
in_extent_calc_method

The method for calculating the Territory extent.

  • GEOMETRY_CENTROID_CONTAINED_WITHIN_EXTENT — Only features having their geometry's centroids inside the extent will be taken into account
  • GEOMETRY_COMPLETELY_CONTAINED_WITHIN_EXTENT — Only features having their geometry completely located inside the extent will be taken into account
  • GEOMETRY_INTERSECTS_EXTENT —Only features having their geometry intersecting the extent will be taken into account

Code sample

SetupExtentByCurrentMapView_TD example (Python window)

The following Python window script demonstrates how to use the tool in immediate mode.

import arcgisscripting
gp = arcgisscripting.create()
gp.SetupExtentByCurrentMapView_TD("new layer", "GEOMETRY_CENTROID_CONTAINED_WITHIN_EXTENT")
SetupExtentByCurrentMapView_TD example 2 (stand-alone script)

The following stand-alone script demonstrates how to use the tool.

# Import system modules
import arcgisscripting
gp = arcgisscripting.create()

# Set local variables
solution = "new layer"
method = "GEOMETRY_CENTROID_CONTAINED_WITHIN_EXTENT"

# Execute tool
gp.SetupExtentByCurrentMapView_TD(solution, method)
