Ideas inspired by Excel UI useful for effective work and flexible data manipulation in Attribute Table window: Copy data attributes from selected fields, records or cells easily and Paste them freely to another location in same or different Attribute Table (only copy record possible, no paste). Move or Copy selected attribute values in fields, records or cells by mouse Drag and Drop to other location in the same or different Attribute Table, same or other ArcGIS instance or another application (like Excel, Word). Populate or clear multiple fields, records or cells selected with one keyboard entry at once (no need to use Field Calculator). Improve multiple fields handling: reorder multiple fields, hide/unhide multiple fields, etc. On mouse hover automatically highlight corresponding column and row for better visual orientation. Multiple Cell Selection – select block of cells anywhere in a database with the possibility to cut/copy/paste/move/delete selected block of data, easy populate cells with mouse stroke. Automatically display SUM, Average, etc. values of selected numerical attributes. Provide Start/Stop Editing button on Table window toolbar. Mouse shortcut on cell/record/field to quickly start an Edit Session. Visible and clear indication of ongoing Edit Session in Table window tabs (differentiate edited/non-edited tables with color or font) and inside edited Attribute Tables (small pencil is easily overlooked). Missing text cursor in cell while editing. Enhance field and record selection display – add or subtract selection color in cells where Row Selection and Column Selection intersect. Use color add/subtract also when Field Highlight and Field Selection overlap to see both. Related idea: Excel like Attribute Table formatting and control ... View more

Enhance manipulation possibilities with Feature Templates: Move or copy Feature Templates freely between layers in an edit session or import their settings form outside. Provide transition mechanism if database structure or geometry doesn’t match (like symbology). Merge template settings of two or more Feature Templates (user controlled). Save template settings to separate file or append them to Layer File. Feature Templates management accessible outside an edit session for working purposes. Create or rename Feature Template quickly in Crete Features window (no wizard). Set dynamically generated attributes in Template Properties like current date etc.   ... View more

What You See Is What You Get label formatting and display in Label Expression Builder with user friendly formatting options (like MS Word, restrain use of text formatting tags). Adjust formatting directly on desired output sample (choose specific records for preview). Interactive preview in Dataframe window (without permanent redraw of underlying layers). Syntax assistant. ... View more

Favor mouse Drag and Drop functionality instead of cumbersome arrow buttons used for item organization in dialog boxes. While already present in Fields tab in Layer Properties, still missing everywhere else. Partially requested in Draggind Legend Items, this idea suggest to remove this inconsistency in functionality throughout the ArcGIS, especially in: Layer Properties, Symbology tab Bookmarks Manager Legend Properties, Legend Items tab Label Priority Ranking Group Layer properties, Group tab Improve inner dialog box drag and drop functionality and extend it beyond single dialog box extent to provide better and flexible interconnection between workspace elements. For example: D&D layer from TOC to Legend, D&D layer to/from Layer Group dialog, D&D layer in Legend dialog Items tab from Map Layers to Legend Items etc. ... View more
