| Menu Command | Description |
|---|---|
| Enable ArcObjects | Loads ArcMap ArcObjects so that ArcMap can run inside of GMS. This command is only available in 32 bit GMS since ArcMap is a 32 bit application. You must have ArcGIS installed with a valid license (or access to a network license). |
| Add Data... | Calls ArcObjects and uses ESRI's Select Data dialog. |
| Delete Layer(s)... | Brings up a dialog where the user can select from the currently loaded layers and remove them from the GIS data. ArcObjects only.
A more efficient way to remove layers from a project would be to select the item in the Project Explorer and select delete. |
| ArcObjects → Feature Objects | Converts ArcObjects vector data to Feature Objects using the GIS to Feature Objects wizard. |
| Shapes → Feature Objects | Converts Shapefile data to Feature Objects using the GIS to Feature Objects wizard. |
| Selection > | |
| Select By Attributes... | Brings up ESRI's Query Wizard for selecting based on attribute. ArcObjects only. |
| Select By Location... | Brings up ESRI's Select By Location dialog. ArcObjects only. |
| Clear Selected Features | Clears all selections of GIS data. ArcObjects only. |
| Interactive Selection Method > | Allows user to select how ArcObjects will process new selections based on the 4 options listed below. ArcObjects only. |
| Create New Selection | Mode for handling interactive selection. ArcObjects only. |
| Add to Current Selection | Mode for handling interactive selection. ArcObjects only. |
| Remove from Current Selection | Mode for handling interactive selection. ArcObjects only. |
| Select from Current Selection | Mode for handling interactive selection. ArcObjects only. |
| Options... | Brings up ESRI's Selection Options dialog. ArcObjects only. |
| Selectable Layers... | Allows the user to choose which GIS layers can have selections. ArcOjects only. |
| Visible Layers... | Allows the user to choose which GIS layers are visible. ArcObjects only.
A more efficient way to change the visibility of the GIS layer is to use the check box next to the item in the project explorer |
| Map Properties... | Brings up the properties for the ESRI map and shows the current coordinate system. |
| Attribute Table... | Brings up attribute table of the selected GIS layer. |
| Join Table to Layer... | Brings up file browser dialog to choose a dbf file to join to a GIS layer. |
| Transparency... | Allows the user to set the transparency on raster layers or, if using ArcObjects, any GIS layer; |
| Properties... | Brings up the properties dialog for the selected layer. |
| Convert to 2D Scatter Points | Converts GIS point layers to 2D scatter points. |
| Add Shapefile Data... | Adds a shape file to the GIS data. |
| Clear All Data | Removes all GIS data from the project. |
