Rotating the localizer when the Localizer Feather geometric effect is applied (Aviation)

With an appropriate representation rule applied, the Localizer Feather geometric effect allows you to customize the localizer feather while retaining the size, shape, scale, fill pattern, and line weight.

There are four default localizer feather symbols included with ArcGIS for Aviation:Charting in the PLTS_ICAO style as representation rules: fill on the top half, fill on the bottom half, fill in the whole feather, and no fill.

Fill options for the localizer feather

To use the localizer feather symbols, you need to have data you want to symbolize as the localizer feather. You can apply the default symbology for the localizer feather provided in the PLTS_ICAO sample style.

Once you have customized the Localizer Feather geometric effect symbol, you can rotate the representation using the tools on the Representation toolbar.

手順:
  1. Start ArcMap.
  2. On the main menu, click Customize Toolbars Representation.
  3. On the main menu, click Customize Toolbars Aviation Editing.
  4. Click the Production Start Editing button Production Start Editing on the Aviation Editing toolbar.
    注意注意:

    The Manage Features and Create Attributes, Update Attributes, or Metadata Attributes windows automatically appear when you start an edit session using the Production Start Editing tool.
