Labeling data with unit conversion (Maritime Charting)

You can display values in labels with the appropriate rounding rule applied.

Etapes :
  1. Start ArcMap.
  2. On the main menu, click Customize > Toolbars > Labeling.
  3. Cliquez sur le bouton Gestionnaire d'étiquettes gestionnaire d'étiquettes de la barre d'outils Etiquetage.
  4. Activez la case à cocher située en regard de la couche à étiqueter.

    Vous pouvez également sélectionner la couche et créer des classes d'étiquettes.

  5. Choisissez une classe d'étiquettes sous la couche.
  6. Click Expression.
  7. From the Label Expression dialog box, enter or load the appropriate label expression.

    The following is an example of an expression to apply a rounding rule for labeling. You may have to replace DEPTH_M and DEPTH_M_RR with the field names that apply to your label.

    Function FindLabel ( [DEPTH_M], [DEPTH_M_RR] ) 
      if ISNULL( [DEPTH_M_RR] ) then
        FindLabel = ""
      else
        set ipLabelHelper = CreateObject("ESRI.Production.Nautical.LabelHelperClass")
        set ipRounder = ipLabelHelper.GetUnitsRounder( [DEPTH_M_RR] )
        if ipRounder Is Nothing then
          FindLabel = ""
        else
          set ipValue = ipRounder.Round( [DEPTH_M] )
          FindLabel = "<CLR red='1' green='1' blue='1'><BOL><FNT name=""Arial"" size=""12"">" &  ipValue.IntegerString & "</FNT><FNT name=""Arial"" size=""15""><SUB>" & ipValue.FractionalString & "</SUB></FNT></BOL></CLR>"
        end if
      end if
    End Function
    
  8. Click Verify to make sure there are no syntax errors and click OK.
  9. Click OK to close the Label Manager dialog box.

    Features are labeled with the appropriate rounding rule applied to the destination field. If unit destination values are updated, the appropriate rounding is reapplied for the labels.
