Hiding or showing suppressed features

Organizations sometimes need a way to suppress a feature so it can be ignored by the export and editing processes without actually deleting it from the geodatabase. To accomplish this, the Suppress and UnSupress tools allow you to mark a feature as suppressed or unsuppressed by setting an attribute on a feature. By setting a feature as suppressed, you are effectively removing it from the edit session by making it not visible when used in conjunction with the Toggle Suppress tool.

There are three Suppress tools that work in conjunction with each other located on the Nautical toolbar.

• Toggle Suppress—Toggles the visibility in the ArcMap session to hide suppressed features
• Suppress—Sets the selected features to be suppressed by populating the PLTS_SUPPRESS field = 1 (suppressed)
• UnSuppress—Sets the selected features to be unsuppressed by populating the PLTS_SUPPRESS field = 0 (suppressed)

Schritte:

1. Start ArcMap.
   Tipp:

   If the ArcMap - Getting Started dialog box appears, you can open a new or existing map document. You can also check the Do not show this dialog box in the future check box and click Open.

2. On the main menu, click Customize > Toolbars > Production Editing.
3. On the main menu, click Customize > Toolbars > Nautical.
4. Click the Nautical menu on the Nautical toolbar and click Toggle Suppress.

   Any feature with PLTS_SUPPRESS = 1 (suppressed) disappears.

5. Click the Nautical drop-down menu on the Nautical toolbar and click Toggle Suppress again to make all the suppressed features show in the map.
