Hi:

I am really new in ESRI products, just testing if I am taking a course. Simple question: I have copied a Map Document to another location, the map has a Cities layer and accidentally I change some properties of this layer so now I am displaying the cities in different way (I am displaying now all the cities, before the file was displaying only cities with populations above 300k) so, how is possible to bring all the properties from the original Map Document to my current copy or how is possible to restore the property to see ONLY the cities with more than 300k people?

Thanks

Henry

If you copy a map document to another location it also copies the way the layers are displayed. In case a layer is not displaying all features, but a subset according to a certain condition (population in your case) it is making use of the definition expression. You can read more on this in this Help topic: ArcGIS Help (10.2, 10.2.1, and 10.2.2)
