Changing the data sources for map layers (Production Mapping)

Data sources can be associated with several components in several Esri 制图和制表解决方案. In addition to feature layers, data sources can be defined for Reviewer checks and map series. All of these need a geodatabase that can be referenced as a data source, which can be a feature class in a personal, file, or enterprise geodatabase.

Properties for each item include the following:

In terms of personal and file geodatabases, you can change the workspace associated with all the items listed in the Set Data Source dialog box or only one of them. For example, if you are missing a data source for a layer, you can associate it with any geodatabase or dataset that contains it, even if it is not the same as the others.

注注:

To change the data sources for all the items listed in the Set Data Source dialog box, the Show "Change Data Source" warning check box needs to be checked. If it is not checked, the data source is only changed for the selected layer. By default, the option is checked so you can choose whether to change the data source for all layers or only one.

步骤:
  1. Start ArcMap.
  2. If necessary, load data in the map.
  3. Add the Set Data Source tool by doing the following:
    1. On the main menu, click Customize > Customize Mode.

      The Customize dialog box appears.

    2. Click the Commands tab.
    3. In the Categories list, click Production Framework.
    4. Click and drag the Set Data Source button Set Data Source to a toolbar.
    5. Click Close.
  4. Click the Set Data Source button Set Data Source.

    The Set Data Source dialog box appears.

    Set Data Source dialog box

  5. Optionally, click the Sources drop-down arrow and choose the source type for which you want to change the data source.
  6. Optionally, to view only invalid data sources, check the Show Invalid Data Sources Only check box.

    This removes any of the valid data sources from the list on the Set Data Sources dialog box.

  7. Choose an item in the table.
  8. If you do not want to change the data source for multiple sources, uncheck the Show "Change Data Source" warning check box.

    Only the layer you choose will have its data source changed.

  9. Click Change Data Source.

    The Select Data Source dialog box appears.

  10. Navigate to the feature class you want to associate with the item you selected.
  11. Click OK.

    The Choose Repair Option dialog box appears.

    注注:

    This dialog box appears only if the Show "Change Data Source" warning check box is checked. If it is not, the path is updated after you click OK in step 11.

    Choose Repair Option dialog box
  12. Choose an option for updating the data source.
    • To update all the sources that have the same path as the data source you are updating, choose the Apply to all matching Paths option.

      For example, if you have tables and feature classes that are in the same workspace, the paths will be updated for both.

    • To update all the sources for all the data sources that match the type you chose on the Sources drop-down list, choose the Apply to all matching Types option.

      For example, if you choose Tables in the Sources drop-down list, only the paths for tables listed on the Set Data Source dialog box are updated. Feature classes that are also listed would not have their paths changed.

    • To only update the path for the data source you chose in step 7, choose the Apply to selected Item only option.
  13. 单击确定
  14. Click OK to close the Set Data Source dialog box.
