Fixing incomplete templates by adding the missing template layer

One reason a composite template may be displayed as incomplete is because one of the layers that contains a feature template used in the composite template has not been added to the table of contents. This can be fixed by adding the missing layer to the table of contents.

Use this method to fix the incomplete template if you can access the missing layer.

Étapes :

1. Start ArcMap.
   Conseil :

   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.
