arcpy.da.Editor setup for tool

DevinUnderwood2

I am not sure how I should have my syntax to use this with a tool ?

# Set Editing
workspace = r'C:\xyz'
edit = arcpy.da.Editor(workspace)
edit.startEditing(False, True)
edit.startOperation()
edit = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(3)

Not working yet based on your suggestions. So it just starts an edit session ? How does it know to edit the selected feature, I am not seeing it in the code.

DevinUnderwood2

Thanks for the feedback. You are exactly correct that I want the user to use the map document default tool to stop and save edits.

Most edits will be attributes but some point feature creation and lines.

I will work on this.

You need to make the edit session starting dependent on whether or not the Starting Editting box is checked, right now it runs regardless. I set the result of GetParameterAsText(3) to a variable(InputEdit) then created an if statement that would run if that variable was True.

Not sure how you would logic the ending of the edit session into your code, since it seems like what you want your code to do is zoom to the select feature ID and edit if they choose. You might have the user close the editting session within the map document itself when they are done. What sort of edits would someone be doing to this feature(geometry, attributes, etc.)?

What is the goal of this script?

DevinUnderwood2

I want a user with the option to check the Start Editing after typing in the string FacilityID.

I am having trouble passing the selected feature to arcpy.GetParameterAsText() tool parameter.

Also, I have used editing arcpy syntax.

The last line definitely looks odd. What is arcpy.GetParameterAsText(3) returning? Better yet, can you elaborate a bit more on what you are trying to do?
