Creating symbols with the Representation Rule Dump tool

This tool does the following:

• Creates a new file geodatabase with three feature classes: points, lines, and polygons
• Assigns all the representation rules associated with a defined style to those features
• Adds the features to the current active data frame with its visibility turned off

Nota:

If you need to create a lookup or symbology QA/QC plot of all the representation rules located in a style, use this tool together with the Graphic Table Element (GTE) or the Legend tool.
