My points are disappearing when I zoom in past 300,000 in ArcMap. I tried to repair geometry, but it doesn't fix anything?

I also checked the scale extents and those are turned off. I can export the points to a new shapefile/feature class, but I'd like to not have to do that.

I'm using 10.1 on Windows 7 x64.

    Try building or deleting/building the spatial index.

I'm not sure how familiar you are with ArcMap, but do you have a scale range set on the feature? In the TOC right click on the feature and go to properties and view the General tab:

But I'm assuming this is not the case.


In ArcMap, go to the Customize --> ArcMap Options --> Display Cache and clear the cache.


This ESRI Knowledge Base article says to delete and rebuild your spatial index:

  • Yeah, that was the first thing I checked.

    I added a couple other suggestions. Deleting your display cache and ESRI recommends deleting and recreating the spatial index. Good luck.

I ended up exporting the file and starting over with a new shape. It seemed to work. It could have been the spatial index since I ended up starting over.
