Configuring the Activate Contents View command

In Task Assistant Manager, you can associate ArcMap commands with a step in the workflow. The Task Manager Utilities category in the Command Item Editor contains commands that may be useful during workflow creation. Commands are associated with specific workflow steps and allow a specific function to occur when you run that step in the task assistant workflow.

The Activate Contents View command allows you to activate a view in the ArcMap table of contents when a user executes a step in the task assistant workflow. This changes the current view of the table of contents, even if the Table of Contents window is not displayed in ArcMap.

Remarque :

The Activate Contents View command will work with both ArcGIS for Desktop and any custom Contents view.
