Editing chart annotation (Maritime Charting)
In most instances, the automated labeling process will leave you with text that overlaps important symbols, as well as other annotation obscuring important information. In this case, you will need to displace the annotation to remove the overlaps and improve that chart's legibility.
Follow the steps below if you need to move annotation.
- Start ArcMap.
- Open the product map document.
- On the main menu, click Customize → Toolbars → Production Editing.
-
Click the Production Start Editing button
on the Production Editing toolbar.
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.
ヒント:If the Create Attributes, Update Attributes, or Metadata Attributes window does not appear when you start an edit session, click the Show/Hide Attributes button
on the Manage Features window. - If necessary, add the Nautical Editing Cartography toolbar from the main menu by clicking Customize → Production → Toolbar Settings → Nautical Chart Production.
-
Click the Edit Annotation tool
on the Nautical Editing Cartography toolbar and select a piece of annotation.
-
Drag the annotation to a location where it will not conflict with other features.
Changing annotation text and moving annotation may need to be repeated as the chart goes through the QA/QC process. Annotation edits will make up the majority of the finishing process, so it is import that you understand how to edit annotation. For more information about editing annotation, see About creating and editing annotation. In some cases you may need to split the annotation into multiple parts. For more information, see Converting annotation to multiple parts.
