Changing the version associated with map layers

Disponible con licencia de Production Mapping.

Data sources can be associated with several components in several Esri Mapping and Charting solutions. In addition to feature layers, data sources can be defined for Reviewer checks and map series. All of these need a geodatabase that can be referenced as a data source, which can be a feature class in a personal, file, or enterprise geodatabase.

Properties for each item include the following:

• Type—The type of item that is using the data source reference
• Display Name—The name of the feature class being referenced as it is displayed in the table of contents or the Reviewer check
• Version—The database version being referenced
• Name—The name of the feature class being referenced, which includes the full path if you are using an enterprise geodatabase
• Unqualified Name—The name of the feature class
• Workspace Path—The full path to the current workspace being referenced

With enterprise geodatabases, the paths to the data source include the version as well as the geodatabase. You can opt to change only the version for the data source or the version and the full path to the feature class. For example, if you are working with the editor version of the data and you want to change the production version of the data, you can choose to only change the version for the geodatabase.

Nota:

To change the data sources for all the items listed in the Set Data Source dialog box, the Show "Change Data Source" warning check box needs to be checked. If it is not checked, the data source is only changed for the selected layer. By default, the option is checked so you can choose whether to change the data source for all layers or only one.
