The GIS menu appears when GIS data has been loaded into GMS. The menu has a submenu, the Selection submenu, which contains its own submenu, the Interactive Selection Method submenu. The following commands are available in the GIS menu:

  • 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.
