Create bookmark

Purpose
This sample demonstrates how to create a multi-item toolbar menu with spatial bookmarks. It shows how to use HookHelper to get the focus map and create a bookmark.

How to use

See How to use ArcGIS samples for help on running the sample. If the sample has associated data, you will find that the sample's zip file includes a "data" folder alongside the language folders. However, you will need to update the sample to point to the location of the data once you have extracted all the files.

  1. Run the CreateBookmark application.
  2. Open a map document, and zoom in to a certain extent.
  3. Click the down arrow next to the Spatial Bookmarks toolbar item and click Create. A dialog box opens.
  4. Type the bookmark name. The new spatial bookmark is added to the multi-item toolbar menu. A JOptionPane input dialog is used to create a name for the bookmark. The count is maintained by using IEnumSpatialBookmark.
