Should I use File Geodatabase (*.gdb), Personal Geodatabase (*.mdb) or shapefiles? It is important to note that the 2GB limitation is the only disadvantage of PGDB while on the other hand FGDB is very limited in SQL querying capabilities. PGDB allows users to take advantage of the full underlying RDBMS while File Geodatabase is very simplistic. Fundamental keywords such as "DISTINCT" or "ORDER BY" do not work with File Geodatabases. ESRI has been promising to add this functionality since FGDB conception but it is still not available. |

What does this style of line on Topographic maps indicate The official topo maps for the citu in which I live are made in AutoCAD and in these maps the line with the Xs is a fence. Not sure about the blue line but since this is almost certainly an AutoCAD map you might want to look at some autocad topographic symbology standards. |

Convert multiple lines into single line This is the solution. If you are unable to merge multiple lines on a single layer then there are other problems with either ArcMap or the data itself. Export your layer into a new file geodatabase, run repair features, create a new map document, load this single layer, start editing, select all featured and merge (editor menu) |

Is there a way to improve the render quality of ESRI basemaps when exporting a map to PDF or JPG? Export to tiff then convert tiff to PDF using Acrobat Pro. (cannot be jpeg or a bitmap. Acrobat renders tiff really well resulting in the best quality and smallest file size.) Seems like a very static and a cumbersome procedure but it is the best way to produce a PDF from ArcMap. Only Adobe Acrobat rendered and Nitro 7 and greater (not 6) yield good results. No other 3rd party tiff to PDF converter works as well. |

Methodology for creating accurate drainage networks (and catchments) from high resolution LiDAR DEM? @DIG - of course I zoomed in before i posted this question! Also the fact that the resulting basis have so many gaps obviously means that there are no segments to generate the missing basins from. |

How can I suspend default shortcut menu and substitute with a custom menu in the TOC? Thanks @KirkKuykendall. Edited the post. I want to focus on substituting the shortcut menu when a layer in the TOC is right-clicked. |

ArcGIS key numbering labels for every feature in one layer That's the only way I can see you can do this. ESRI is on the right track with this tool but it needs some work. What I meant by removing strategies was to uncheck them. If uncheck the strategy is not applied even if it is still in the order list. This way you can make maplex ignore all fitting strategies but the Key Numbering. It will still only do this in very dense area after placement has failed so I don't see any other way but manual. You could have another point layer with the list string in a field then un-check stacking and use vbnewline in the expression. |

How can I “reset” SketchUp origin after importing DXF with “Preserve Drawing Origin” option enabled? Thanks. I need to retain the geo-reference. I need to move the Sketchup origin to where the model is while preserving the origin of my imported DXF meshes. |

Is there a way to add a PDF to ArcMap as data? Thanks. That will work for vector but most PDFs I get are image PDFs, scans, etc. Still, I am looking for a plain easy solution - just add ANY pdf to map as data. |

Is there a way to add a PDF to ArcMap as data? I can't find pricing info on their page. I bet its quite a bit. Also don't see the "Add PDF to Map" feature there. Does it only add geopdf ar any pdf to ArcMap? |

How can I edit/create new Normal.mxt template in ArcGIS 10.1? So I guess only the existing template can be customized and then in only a very few ways. Enabling or disabling specific style files from loading into a new document is then not possible. "...your administrator would customize the Normal template, then copy that Normal.mxt file to the..." Seems like a step backwards from being able to create templates. But so is not being able to save VBA customization in the Normal template anymore. |

Is there a line symbology that also shows vertices? Thanks! Good idea. I did ask for a trick with representations so I will mark this as answered. (I do have ArcEditor but to be honest though I am not a big fan of cartographic representations.) I will probably not go trough the trouble of exporting lines to representations unless I am doing a big job. |

Is IPolygon2.QueryExteriorRingsEx Method not working in ArcGIS version 10.1 SP1? Yes, true. What I meant is that it incorrectly states that this only occurs in C#. So either this is a typo in the documentation or a bug. Thank you both for your help. Most thorough! |
