ArcFM Solution Configuration Guide
Troubleshooting: How do I set up the Auto Angle Setter AU?

Version: 10.2.1c and 10.2.1.c SP3

Resource Center Home

To configure the Auto Angle Setter autoupdater:

  1. In ArcCatalog, right-click the feature class and select the ArcFM Properties Manager.
  2. Select the Field Info tab.
  3. Select the field that contains the angle value by which the feature should be rotated (e.g., SymbolRotation).
  4. For the On Feature Create and On Feature Update events, select ArcFM Auto Angle Setter.
  5. Click OK.

 

This enables the Auto Angle Setter for the feature class in ArcMap. However, you still need to set the symbol rotation style in ArcMap.

  1. In ArcMap, right-click the feature class on the Display tab of the table of contents.

  2. Select Properties.

  3. Click the Symbology tab.

  4. Click the Advanced button and choose Rotation.

  1. In the dropdown select the field to which the ArcFM Auto Angle Setter autoupdater is assigned (e.g., SymbolRotation).

  2. Select a rotation style: Geographic or Arithmetic.

  3. Click OK.

 

Unless you save the properties of this layer in a map document, layer file, stored display, or document, you will need to set the symbol rotation field each time you add that layer to a map.
