Toggle Between Layers in an ArcGIS Mobile Device

StevenBlitzstein — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 15:16:14 GMT

I am trying to create an ArcGIS Mobile Project that will allow users to collect features, from the same Feature class, existing on multiple floor levels in a building. However, the issue I am running into, is that I am unable to toggle between the multiple floors.

What I am looking for, is a method that will allow me to toggle between features so that I am only viewing one floor at a time, and only those features on that the specific floor are shown on my ArcGIS Mobile Device? Is there a way for me to do this, and still have all my features from the multiple floors all in one project?

Thanks,
Steven

Does it work in ArcMap ?????

Maybe use SUbtypes.

Subtype called FLOORS (long integer), with 1=1st floor, 2=2nd Floor etc. and then the same attributes on them.

In Arcmap create multiple layers from the same feature class using a Definition Query, one layer for each floor.

Then when you create the Mobile Cache, the application will see these as distinct layers that can be turned on and off and edited separately.

Could you please give an example of the code for the query.
