Spatial References |
Enterprise Architect helps you to model Spatial Reference information for your ArcGIS schema, including the selection of predefined coordinate systems and associated values. |
Setting ArcGIS Coordinate Systems |
Show/Hide System Attribute Fields |
The ArcGIS elements provided through the Toolbox pages contain a number of system-assigned attributes that define the «AttributeIndex», «SpatialIndex» and «RequiredField» stereotypes. When you drag an element onto a diagram from the Toolbox, these attributes are not visible in the newly-created structure. If you want to show these system attributes, right-click on the element(s) and select the 'Specialize > Technologies > ArcGIS > Show or Hide ArcGIS System Fields' ribbon option. Similarly, if you have exposed the attributes and want to hide them, select the elements and select the menu option again. This option does not operate on attributes or stereotypes you have added to the selected elements, nor on elements that you have not selected. If you do not select any elements, the option is grayed out. |
