Creating a new metadata favorite

获得 Production Mapping 许可后可用。

Whenever you have a new attribute combination that you want to be populated in the feature-level metadata fields, you need to create a new metadata favorite. When you create a new metadata favorite, it will have the default values for the feature-level metadata fields. Once you create the metadata favorite, you will need to set the attributes of that favorite.
