Converting a part to a feature

Este tema se aplica sólo a ArcEditor y ArcInfo.

Production Mapping provides several functions for working with multipart features.

Examples of multipart polygon and polyline features

One way you can work with multipart features is to create a new feature that has the same geometry and attributes as the part that is currently selected. For instance, rather than having three polygons as part of a single feature, you can convert one of the polygons to a single feature. This removes the polygon as a feature part, so it is not selected when you select the multipart feature.

Examples of features that have been created from part of a multipart polygon or polyline feature

Pasos:

1. Start ArcMap.
   Sugerencia:

   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. If necessary, load data in the map.
3. On the main menu, click Customize > Toolbars > Production Editing.
4. Click the Production Start Editing button on the Production Editing toolbar.
   Nota:

   The Manage Features and Create Attributes, Update Attributes, or Metadata Attributes windows automatically appear when you start an edit session using the Production Start Editing tool.

   Sugerencia:

   If the Create Attributes, Update Attributes, or Metadata Attributes window does not appear when you start an edit session, click the Link Feature Manager To Attributes Window button on the Manage Features window.

5. Select a multipart polygon or line feature.
6. Click the Edit Vertices button on the Production Editing toolbar.
7. Right-click a node on the feature and click Convert Part To Feature.

The selected part becomes a separate feature.
