Hello! This is probably a relatively simple question, but I am brand new to using the C# programming language and using ArcObjects.
I am attempting to change the default construction tool for many layers at once. I ran across the following code, which will update the construction tool for all classes within a layer, but I am trying to iterate through all of the active layers in my document. Are there any modifications I can make to do this? If so, how do I create an add-in button from this code? Thanks.
using System;
using ESRI.ArcGIS.Editor;
using ESRI.ArcGIS.Carto;
using ESRI.ArcGIS.Framework;
namespace SetTemplateProperty
{
public class SetDefaultTemplateTool : ESRI.ArcGIS.Desktop.AddIns.Button
{
IEditor3 m_editor;
public SetDefaultTemplateTool()
{
m_editor = ArcMap.Application.FindExtensionByName("esriEditor.Editor") as IEditor3;
}
protected override void OnClick()
{
//get the current template and ArcMap tool
IEditTemplate currentTemplate = m_editor.CurrentTemplate;
ICommandItem currentTool = ArcMap.Application.CurrentTool;
//loop through the templates in the edit session
for (int i = 0; i < m_editor.TemplateCount - 1; i++)
{
IEditTemplate editTemplate = m_editor.get_Template(i);
if (editTemplate.Layer.Name == currentTemplate.Layer.Name)
{
//set the default tool to the current ArcMap tool
Guid g = new Guid(currentTool.ID.Value.ToString());
editTemplate.Tool = g;
}
}
}
protected override void OnUpdate()
{
this.Enabled = (m_editor.EditState == esriEditState.esriStateEditing);
}
}
}
