Using ArcMap 10.3.

I am trying to change 100+ annotation values from "Placed" to "Unplaced" as quick as possible.

I have tried to select them and use field calculator, but keep getting an error for Empty Values. The only way I can get it to change is to individually click each attribute and use the drop drown box to change it to place/unplaced.

  • You can do it in the attribute table -> sort then select all unplaced -> use calculator to change values. The values are numeric -1,1 and 0 don't remember exactly. Commented Mar 13, 2017 at 16:05

Figured it out.

In the editing bar > attribute button > attribute tab

Just like you would do a bulk text size chang. Select the annotation file title and select unplace/place.

This will change all selected.

use your field calculator. unplaced = 0 placed =1.
