Creating an item to row table

Choosing the type of graphic table element

In an item to row table, elements can be data driven from layers added to the current ArcMap session. In this type of table, the number of rows automatically changes based on the data returned using the data source filters. In addition, customizable interactive header and footer sections allow you to adjust them around dynamic main body and content sections.

You can only add this table in layout view.

手順:

1. On the main menu, click View → Layout View.
2. On the main menu, click Insert → Graphic Table Element.

   The New Table dialog box appears.
3. Choose Item to Row in the Available formats list.

Setting the table format

手順:

1. Click Wizard.

   The Set Table Format dialog box appears.
2. Click the Width drop-down arrow and choose one of the following:
   • Table Design—Resizes the cell based on the definition on the Table Design dialog box
   • Auto Fit cells—Automatically adjusts the cell size based on the content within the cell
   • Expand cells—Allows cells to expand to fit content size, but does not allow cells to be made smaller
   • Fixed Size—Allows you to specify the width of the cell in the Size text box
3. If you choose the Fixed Size option in the drop-down list, click the Units drop-down arrow and choose the unit of measurement you want to use.
   メモ:

   When the Fixed Size option is selected for both Width and Height, the Save aspect ratio while resizing table check box becomes available.

4. Type a size in the Size text box.
5. Click the Height drop-down arrow and choose one of the following:
   • Table Design—Resizes the cell based on the definition on the Table Design dialog box
   • Auto Fit cells—Automatically adjusts the cell size based on the content within the cell
   • Expand cells—Allows cells to expand to fit content size, but does not allow cells to be made smaller
   • Fixed Size—Allows you to specify the width of the cell in the Size text box
6. If you choose the Fixed Size option in the drop-down list, click the Units drop-down arrow and choose the unit of measurement you want to use.
   メモ:

   When the Fixed Size option is selected for both Width and Height, the Save aspect ratio while resizing table check box becomes available.

7. Type a size in the Size text box.
8. Uncheck the Make content items equal check box if you do not want to maintain row and column alignment when cell contents and formatting options can result in cells of varying sizes.
9. Check the Auto Wrap Columns and Rows check box if you want the table to wrap automatically. Checking this check box causes the Size text box in the Height area to become available. When this check box is checked, you can add rows until the defined size height is reached; then the table automatically starts a new column. For example, if the size is defined as 10 centimeters, you can continue to add rows until this limit is reached, in which case the table then wraps and begins another column.
   1. Click the appropriate button to specify how you want the header and footer displayed.
   • Header and Footer on each row or column—The table displays with a header and footer on every column.
   • Header and Footer on beginning and ending row or column—The table displays with a header on the first column and a footer at the end of the last column.
   メモ:

   The Auto Wrap Columns and Rows check box is only available when Width is not defined as Fixed Size.

10. Continue to the next section, Defining merge options for cells in the table, if you want to define merging options, or click Next and continue to the Selecting table data sources section.

Defining merge options for cells in the table

Merge options that are available from the Set Table Format dialog box allow you to define the table so adjacent cells with identical content are automatically merged into one cell. For example, choosing to merge a row of cells containing 1,2,3,4,4,4,5,4,4,4,5 by identical rows would result in a row of cells that displays as 1,2,3,4,5,4,5.

Before cells are merged, cell contents are compared based on what you select in the Compare cells by drop-down list.

手順:

1. Check the Enable automatic merging cells check box on the Set Table Format dialog box to define merging options.
2. Click Merging options.

   The Merge options dialog box appears.
3. Click the Merge cells by drop-down arrow and choose one of the following:
   • Identical rows of cells—Merges identical cells by row
   • Identical columns of cells—Merges identical cells by column
   • Identical rows and columns of cells (priority: rows)—Merges identical cells by row, then by column
   • Identical rows and columns of cells (priority: columns)—Merges identical cells by column, then by row
4. Click the Compare cells by drop-down arrow and choose one of the following:
   • Elements values, formats, and cell properties—Cells are compared by associated value attributes and backgrounds. For example, field elements are compared by field values, text elements are compared by text values, and so on.
   • Elements values and formats—Cells are compared by text values, text symbols, markers, fills, and line dimensions.
   • Elements values—Cells are compared by text and symbol values.
5. Click OK.

   The Set Table Format dialog box appears.

   If you checked the Define Fields or Define Filters check box on the Interactive table properties dialog box, the Set Table Format dialog box contains a Next button.
