Editing with a sketch halo

获得 Production Mapping 许可后可用。

In many collection guidance specifications, it is necessary to collect only a conspicuous representation of dense features, for example, buildings or road networks. Many guidance specifications have an explicit distance that must exist between features to maintain the scale representation of the specification. The sketch halo properties allow you to create a sketch halo that provides a visual reference to facilitate the collection of such features.

With ArcGIS Production Mapping, you can create multiple halos so that data can be extracted and edited for multiple layers in the same edit session. These halos can be set to different widths to accommodate the different requirements for layer extraction. You can also add and delete them as your data extraction requirements change.

Example of multiple sketch halos in the map

All the halos use the same unit of measure and are created as geodesic rings to account for the actual shape of the earth.

1. 启动 ArcMap。
2. 在主菜单上，单击自定义 > 工具条 > 生产编辑。
3. 在生产编辑工具条上，单击生产编辑 > 编辑属性。

   将弹出生产属性对话框。

   

   提示：

   也可以通过单击自定义 > 生产 > 生产属性来打开生产属性对话框。

4. Add a sketch halo by doing the following:
   1. Right-click in the Sketch Halo list and click Add.

      A new sketch halo appears in the Sketch Halo list.

      注：

      The sketch halos are named Sketch Halo # by default and cannot be renamed.

   2. Click the name of the halo.

      The Show Halo check box is checked by default. This allows you to customize the halo. If the check box is not checked, the halo cannot be configured.

      After the halo has been configured, the Show Halo check box can be unchecked to hide an individual halo in the map.

   3. Type or choose a value in the Radius text box.
   4. Click the Units drop-down arrow and choose a unit of measurement.

      The default is the display units, but the halo is built in native projection units.

   5. Click the drop-down arrow next to the color and choose a color for the halo.
   6. Repeat steps 4a through 4e for each sketch halo needed for data extraction or editing.

      提示：

      You can delete a sketch halo by right-clicking the name of the halo, then clicking Delete.

5. 单击确定。
6. 单击生产编辑工具条上的启动生产编辑按钮 。

   注：

   使用启动生产编辑工具开始编辑会话时，系统将自动显示管理要素和创建属性、更新属性或元数据属性窗口。

   提示：

   如果开始编辑会话时未显示创建属性、更新属性或元数据属性窗口，请单击管理要素窗口上的显示/隐藏属性按钮 。

7. To use the halos you have created, ensure the following are enabled on the Production Editing menu on the Production Editing toolbar:
   • Use Classic Snapping—When classic snapping is enabled, you can use the sketch halos configured on the Production Properties dialog box. If it is unchecked, the default sketch halo in ArcMap is available.
   • Toggle Sketch Halo—When this is enabled, you can use the sketch halos configured on the Production Properties dialog box. If it is unchecked, no halos appear in the map.
8. Click a template on the Create tab on the Manage Features window.

   The sketch halos appear in the map.

9. Do one of the following:

   To create a new feature	Draw a new feature in the map using the selected template and double-click to finish the sketch.
   To edit a feature	Select a single feature and click the Edit Vertices button on the Production Editing toolbar, move the vertices as needed, then press F2 to finish the sketch.
