Reshaping representations

You can use the Reshape Representation tool Reshape Representation to edit representation geometry. Reshaping a selected polygon or polyline results in a shape override.

Steps:
  1. Start ArcMap.
  2. If necessary, load data in the map.
  3. If necessary, add the Reshape Representation tool to a toolbar.
    1. On the main menu, click Customize > Customize Mode.
    2. Click the Commands tab.
    3. Choose Production Cartography in the Categories list.
    4. Locate the Reshape Representation command in the Commands list.
    5. Drag the Reshape Representation command Reshape Representation onto a toolbar.
  4. If necessary, start editing.
  5. Verify that you have representations in your target feature class.
  6. Select a feature to select the representation you want to reshape.
    NoteNote:

    You can only reshape one representation at a time.

  7. Click the Reshape Representation button Reshape Representation.
  8. Click to draw a sketch that represents the new representation shape of the selected feature.

    The sketch must cross the existing feature's shape two times.

  9. Double-click the end node to finish the sketch.

    The representation is reshaped.
