Hi there Is their away of setting a shortcut key for changing the tracing offset when editing in 10.1? Previous versions of Arc used the TAB key but this shortcut has been discontinued. The longer alternative is to type in minus [ - ] in front of the numbers in the tracing options box. However I have noticed a couple of things with this which I think could be considered bugs. 1. Type in -1.5 into the tracing box; 2. Go back to the tracing options window and the minus sign will have disappeared and all you see is 1.5; 3. Now type in -2. Instead of it moving further out in the direction of the initial -1.5, it swops over to the opposite direction of the line. The reason I might do number 3 is if I find -1.5 is not enough offset. If the above is designed as ESRI intended then I find it very confusing and not helpful. If others consider it to be a bug, I can always contact ESRI to file it. Kind regards Tim

May I suggest that this is submitted to the ESRI ideas web sit: ideas.arcgis.com. I to would be interested because from time to time I do the same thing and it can be annoying if you have spent 20 minutes creating a large feature. I often finish my sketches by pressing F2 rather than double clicking so wouldn't having a problem with this change. Besides being optional one could choose. Tim

Hi there I have upgraded to ArcMap 10.1 Standard. Can anyone tell me where the percentage completed figures have gone or were they removed based on customer feedback? I'm using ArcCatalog in this case. Kind regards Tim

Hi there I may have asked this before but I'll ask again since 10.1 is now out. I have a feature class with over 65,000 rows of data. This is stored in ArcSDE 9.3.1, hosted in Oracle 10gr2. I am using ArcMap 10.0.4 myself. Each row should have a unique feature id. Sometimes features need to be split into two and what I have now found, having done a distinct query on a copy of the feature class in SQL Developer, is 26 rows of duplicated ids. Is there anyway to stop this from occurring? In Oracle itself I can simply apply a unique key constraint but I've yet to find anything in ArcMap or ArcSDE to stop this from occurring. Is their anything available. Kind regards Tim

Thanks for your reply Sean. I've not yet used relationship classes, although I have used the relate command. It will no doubt be something I get into. For my current piece of work I have a fairly convoluted work flow because I find it easier to do the SQL I wish to write in Oracle, via SQL Developer, than in ArcGIS. I then export this into the SDE and do a join in ArcMap to update a column. Whilst some of this might be possible directly in ArcMap, I have had problems preforming joins in ArcMap [http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/65788-Getting-invalid-identifier-when-doing-select-by-attribute-query-on-table-with-joins?p=228342#post228342] There are a reasonable number of minor and not so minor annoyances I would like to see changed; added or removed from ArcGIS. Kind regards Tim

Thanks for your reply Sean and the link. What happens when one of the feature classes is versioned and the other is not? In this scenario I switch off versioning as you describe and I get the warning message: incorrect edit version type. By default exports of data are not versioned unless one runs a toolbox to version them or they do the versioning in ArcCatalogue, remembering not to add the data into ArcMap first or it will be locked until the ArcMap application is quit. Kind regards Tim

Hi there I am currently doing some data comparisons in ArcMap 10.0.4. The data is stored in ArcSDE 9.3.1 which is hosted in an Oracle 10g R2 database. I have three tables joined together, although I am only making comparisons between two of them. The one of the joins is not indexed but that should only affect the performance. They are joined so that only matching records are displayed. The tables are: Street_POLYGON LLPG ADDITIONAL_DATA The tables are versioned and out of those only the Street_POLYGON table has archiving applied. When I do the following select by attribute query though: "USER1.Street_POLYGON.STREET" <> "USER1.LLPG.STREET" I get the error: Underlying DBMS error [ORA-00904: "V__5111.STREET": invalid identifier] [USER1.DBJoin6] Now I have not set up any tables myself with the names V__5111.STREET or USER1.DBJoin6. Going directly into Oracle via SQL Developer I cannot locate either table in the database. These must have been created by SDE from the joins I made and perhaps on the fly. Can anyone tell me what might be causing the issue? I'm clearly using identifiable names when I do the joins and type in the names. Kind regards

This is a really useful thread as I hit the same problem. Is their any more help documentation or resources explaining this in more detail? Such as why this needs to be the case. Actually I tired the above suggestion and it didn't work. Now I am joining a versioned feature class with archiving enabled to a CSV file but I couldn't see anything on the help screen when doing the join which said this was not supported and it allowed the join to go through. However when I go to edit, it goes through the process but I can't actually edit since everything is greyed out. I will try putting the CSV file on the SDE and see what happens. I am using 10.0.4. I can't use SP 5 because it had unrelated issues. UPDATE: I've now noticed that when I switch off the versioning I get the error incorrect edit version type when I go to edit and it lists all the layers for which this is the case. However I am still able to proceed further, even when I right click on the layer for which this message appears. This in my opinion seems to be flaw. As I clearly stated to ArcMap which layer I wish to edit and once I start editing, I have no way of amending the versioning tab settings to allow me to edit. My only solution appears to be to stop editing. Which is why I think a cannot edit layer and proceed further error message would be better as that is for the times when editing of a layer is not allowed. Do a search on the forums for incorrect edit version type only brought up my posting and a search using Google, only brought up three web pages of which the following had more detail on the warning: http://support.esri.com/en/knowledgebase/techarticles/detail/38414 As I have now versioned both the feature class and attribute table, both now being held in the SDE, I can switch versioning back on and this problem will not occur. Thanks

Maybe, the day when we can use ArcGIS Desktop 10.1 to directly edit feature classes in a non-SDE database, that day will be the end day for ArcSDE. Right, ESRI staff? I'm not sure if ESRI want to get rid of ArcSDE. I do prefer the fact that MapInfo can directly write back to Oracle spatial data tables. However that is not to say that everything else about MapInfo is better than ArcGIS. I only used MapInfo for digitising in the past but people I speak to locally say they prefer ArcGIS on the whole. Just ashame though that one can't write directly back to Oracle. I only want to do that so I can write more advanced and at times easier SQL queries on my data and even commit those changes outside of ArcMap, since the ArcMap Jet SQL is rather basic in comparison.

Hi there I am currently working on a project which involves digitising streets in the UK ans I am using ArcMap 10.0.5 with the data hosted in a 9.3.1 SDE Geodatabase located in an Oracle 10g environment. Each street has a unique street reference number [USRN] and a name. However some streets are also classified as A or B roads. Until recently their were no USRNs for A and B road numbers but these have now been introduced. Could anyone tell me what would be the best way to group the roads into their A and B classifications, whilst still keeping them separate at their bottom level within the SDE geodatabase environment. I'm looking for an object object oriented model. So A roads / B roads / unclassified would be the parents and below them would be each road, which would inherit the properties of the parents but be separate entities in their own right. I've come at this from the bottom up because until recently their were no USRNs for A and B roads. Kind regards Tim

Hi there Currently when creating; reshaping or cutting a feature, there is only one sketch colour. It would be great is the sketch colour changed according to the tool being used. For example: Green could be create red could be reshape blue could be cutting. Of course the colours could be customised to suit ones own use. Currently I may accidentally attempt to reshape a feature when I meant to create a new one and not notice until after I've finished sketching. At which point I have to have the sketch deleted because ArcMap doesn't allow you to convert reshap or cutting sketches to become create sketches. Kind regards

Hi there I do a lot of tracing and reshaping of digitised polygons in ArcMap 10.0.5. However semi-regularly I come across the following and can probably make it happen everytime if I wish. Is the following a bug or is it work as ESRI intended it to? 1. I digitised a polygon. 2. Snapping is switched on and is on the tolerance is 4 pixels. 3. Next I choose reshape because I need to reshape a small section of it. 4. Now I add 3 points using the right angle tool. 5. Now I switch to the tracing tool 6. I click on the final point I previously added. Before doing so the point snapping box appears, to show I am close enough to the point itself for it to snap to it. 7. Now I start tracing and shortly stop. 8. Finally I finish the sketch 9. Now instead of the sketch finishing I get an error message: "The reshape line must have only one part in it" Why are two parts being created when all I wish to do is carry on from the existing sketch line? Of course at this point my sketch is deleted and I must start again. Of course it always takes up to 10 seconds for a sketch to be deleted after an error, where as if you delete a sketch yourself normally, it's far far quicker. Less than a second. In fact this extended waiting also occurs when you get an error message when trying to save your edits. If they save OK it is far quicker than if they don't. It must be due to the way ArcMap handles error messages. Is this the same in 10.1? UPDATE: I've found another quirk as follows. 1. If I select a polygon and then move the layer into a background mapping layer, it will rightly no longer be selectable. 2. Next I start a reshape session on another polygon which I have selected. 3. Now I move the first layer out of the background mapping layr 4. Now I trace a reshape 5. I finish the sketch 6. Now I get an error message saying: "The reshape task could not be completed." However instead of it then taking 10 seconds or so to allow me to continue, it simply goes straight back to the editing window within less than a second. The same amount of time it would take if it had finalised the sketch and reshaped the feature. Why the after effects of the other error messages can't be this quick I don't know. Kind regards

Hi there The other day I installed PerfQA_Analyzer for ArcGIS Desktop 10. I am running Editor version 10.0.4 of ArcMap. Everything was fine until today. When I start an edit session and right click on a feature to use additional options, no menu is coming up. This was only resolved by the uninstalling of the above program. I can right click on menus and other parts of the screen but not the map part. Whether it affects other functions beyond just editing I don't know but if so it appears to be anything in the map window. Has anyone else come across this or know why it would occur? I've not actually used PerfAQ Analyzer yet. Therefore I don't fully understand how it works and how to use it. Would I have done something in the program to cause this behaviour? Kind regards Tim

Thank you for your reply vangelo I'm not 100% certain of the storage format off hand. Also I don't have access to SQLplus myself at the moment and I can't check in ArcGIS because geometry checks on the SDE are not allowed. However I was able to do a dissolve geoprocess of the feature class and it said it successfully completed it. It may be that null geometries are allowed when running dissolve geoprocess. Thus it may not actually matter going forward that they are stored as null. Kind regards
