Why in the world whenever I use the scale to zoom in or out bounced another area ? Is there a reason for that ? What I am saying here is that whenever I use that scale and let it go my mouse it would bounced to the right or to the left in the center of the screen ?
This is an annoying !
Any tips ?
Robert,
My guess is that when the image is scaled, the result is being centered in the middle of the data view because there is no control point available to anchor it in place. It almost acts like a graphic until the georeferencing information is written to the image. I haven't seen a setting that will change this behavior.
It may be less frustrating to scale the image using control points as suggested in this forum.
In short:
This method works best if the 1st and 2nd link are positioned at the opposite ends of the image otherwise rotation may occur.
Is it the scale in this link Georeferencing toolbar tools—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop on the interactive tools section?
if so, have you tried manually typing it in?
If it isn't that tool, can you provide details as to which scale you are referring to?
How do I video tape it here ? So, you will know what I am talking about.
You can attach a video using the filled in > tool
If i understand your question you're asking about zooming in and out using the wheel on the mouse. Go to "Customize"->"ArcMap Options" Click the general tab mouse wheel settings at the bottom.
No, when you use the scale tool to "zoom" in or "zoom" out and when you do that where you want and then let it go the mouse it just jumps out in the middle and you would have to use the shift to move it Get it ?
that's why I sent you the link. in the dropdown to the right of the toolbar is the rotate, shift and scale options. I was wondering if you had tried the scale tool rather than zooming in to rescale
Yes, I am aware of that tool you mention but my question was why does the rescale bounced like jumping when you use it ?
Ok, so here is the video I screencasted it..you will know what I am talking about here.
I tried to upload it here with the Insert video and seems it is not working...the file is .mov any suggest for me for the next time. So, this time I am attaching the video.
I will check when I get on a windows machine...these iThingies are being less than cooperative. I use Snagit and/or Camtasia on PC's
I have used them what you describe them but my only one simple question is why does it jumping it around as it should not be ? Know what i mean. Don't know if this is a bug or not...maybe ESRI should take a notice of it.
Thanks Charlotte !
Robert... I think Charlotte's description is by design. Perhaps to enable an individual to examine the effect of the addition of subsequent control points. I think what you want is for the whole thing to stay static until you tell it otherwise, like with an update button/option. Perhaps, it could be a suggestion to the upcoming new ArcGIS Ideas (here is the announcement ArcGIS Ideas coming to GeoNet ). Video documentation will go a long way to explain the situation, since capturing the essence in text just doesn't cut it sometimes.
