An overview of the Schematics toolbox

The Schematics toolbox contains tools that perform the most fundamental schematic operations. With the tools in this toolbox, you can create, update, and export diagrams or create schematic folders.

The following table lists the tools available in the Schematics toolbox and provides a brief description of each.

Tool

Description

Create Diagram

This tool creates a schematic diagram. Depending on the schematic builder, diagram creation can be based on feature layers, feature classes, object tables, a network analysis layer, or XML data.

Create Schematic Folder

Creates a schematic folder in a schematic dataset or schematic folder.

Convert Diagram To Features

This tool converts a schematic diagram to feature classes or shapefiles.

Update Diagram

Updates a schematic diagram. Depending on the schematic builder, the diagram update can be based on feature layers, feature classes, object tables, a solved network analysis, or an XML file.

Update Diagrams

Updates schematic diagrams stored in a schematic dataset or schematic folder. All diagrams or a subset of diagrams (for example, diagrams related to a specific diagram template or diagrams that have not been updated for a particular number of days) can be updated.
