Favorites

Favorites organize and save attribute values of often-used features. A favorite consists of a single feature with a user or an administrator pre-determining its attributes. The administrator sets up system favorites in ArcCatalog or ArcMap. Users can view or place (but not edit) system favorites in ArcMap. Users can also create user favorites in ArcMap.

Create a Favorite

Right-click a favorite category and select Create Favorite.
Use the Select a Target window to choose the feature class and subtype for your favorite. Click OK.
Enter a description for the favorite. This is the name that appears in the favorite category. Use the Object Editor grid to edit attributes. Any attributes that have been edited are displayed with blue field labels. If a field does not accept a Null value and no value is assigned, it is highlighted in yellow.
If the favorite has relationships, right click on the relationship to add a related object. Click Apply to save your changes. Click Create to save the favorite. After a favorite is saved, it is displayed in the Features list. Click Close to exit the form without saving.

Edit the favorite's attributes in the object editor grid. Any attributes that have been edited are displayed with blue field labels. The Create Copy button is discussed later in this section.
