Public Properties
| | Name | Description |
|---|
 | Alias | The alias for this tool's toolbox. |
| attributes | Determines which attributes will be transferred from the input features to the output features. ONLY_FID: Only the FID field from the input features will be transferred to the output features. This is the default. NO_FID: All the attributes except the FID from the input features will be transferred to the output features. ALL: All the attributes from the input features will be transferred to the output features. {ONLY_FID | NO_FID | ALL} (In, Optional) |
| margin | The space in page units surrounding the symbolized input features used to create the mask polygon. Typically, masking polygons are created with a small margin around the symbol to improve visual appearance. (In, Required) |
| mask_for_non_placed_anno | Specifies whether to create masks for unplaced annotation. This option is only used when masking geodatabase annotation layers. ALL_FEATURES: Creates masks for all the annotation features. ONLY_PLACED: Only creates masks for features with a status of placed. (In, Required) |
| masked_layer | The symbolized input layer to be masked. This is the layer that will be obscured by the masking polygons. (In, Required) |
| masking_layer | The symbolized input layer, which will be intersected with the masked layer to create masking polygons. This is the layer that will be more prominently displayed when masking is applied to the masked layer. (In, Required) |
| method | The type of masking geometry created. There are three types: BOX: A polygon representing the extent of the symbolized feature. CONVEX_HULL: The convex hull of the symbolized geometry of the feature. This is the default. EXACT_SIMPLIFIED: A generalized polygon representing the exact shape of the symbolized feature. Polygons created with this method will have a significantly smaller number of vertices compared to polygons created with the EXACT method. EXACT: A polygon representing the exact shape of the symbolized feature. (In, Required) |
| output_fc | The feature class that will contain the mask features. (Out, Required) |
| ParameterInfo | The parameters used by this tool. For internal use only. |
| reference_scale | The reference scale used for calculating the masking geometry. This is typically the reference scale of the map. (In, Required) |
| spatial_reference | The spatial reference for which the masking polygons will be created. This is not the spatial reference that will be assigned to the output feature class. It is the spatial reference of the map in which the masking polygons will be used since the position of symbology may change when features are projected. (In, Required) |
| ToolboxDirectory | The directory of this tool's toolbox. |
| ToolboxName | The name of this tool's toolbox. |
| ToolName | The name of this tool. |
