I need run a script which basically zooms to every polygon by loop in the picked feature layer and ask the user to input a value and write the value back to the feature class. However, I can not get the raw_input window work, can anyone help me? Below is the code. Thank you very much for your help in advance.
import arcpy, sys, os
from arcpy import env
try:
#get the current doc
mapDoc = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument("CURRENT")
#get the data frame
df = arcpy.mapping.ListDataFrames(mapDoc)[0]
lyr = arcpy.mapping.ListLayers(mapDoc, "BG2008Permeability", df)[0]
thePath = lyr.dataSource
print thePath
cur = arcpy.UpdateCursor(thePath)
if cur:
print "get the cursor"
for row in cur:
newExtent = row.Shape.extent # or geom.extent
df.extent = newExtent
print "get the extent"
thePattern = raw_input("\nwhich street pattern?\n")
#strPattern = tkMessageBox.askquestion("which street pattern?" message = "0")
#print strPattern
row.StrPattern = thePattern
cur.updateRow(row)
del cur, row
except:
if not arcpy.GetMessages() == "":
arcpy.AddMessage(arcpy.GetMessages(2))
finally
if cur:
del cur
if row:
del row
