Hi, Michael and everyone,
I'm configuring a water supply network right now, so my contribution maybe is not the most valuable. I realize that, after creatig the geometric network, the Attribute Assistant is a great tool, crucial, to maintain the data. So far, the methods i've used most are:
-ANGLE
-EXPRESSION
-FIELD TRIGGER
-JUNCTION ROTATION
-INTERSECTING FEATURE
I'd like to make a couple of questions:
1.-I realized that tools that validate connectivity just warn you if there is a wrong connection once you use the validate tool. I wondered if the "VALIDATE_CONNECTIVITY" method of the Attribute Assistant would prevent of wrong connections, but I confess I don't understand how it works after scrutinizing the documentation of this method.
I would really thank if someone could share a better example of the tool or, at least, inform about a workaround for what I'm looking for.
2.-The method INTERSECTING_FEATURE works fine when two features of different classes intersect, v.g. a main_pipe feature and a lateral feature. This way it is possible to transfer the "id" of the main to a field in the lateral. But, what if I want to transfer any field value from a lateral to another lateral feature that intersects the first one? I haven't been able to make the INTERSECTING_FEATURE method work fine in this case.
Thanks in advance
