Update Annotation Reference Scale (Cartography)

ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | | Help archive

Summary

Updates the reference scale of an existing annotation or dimension feature class.

Usage

  • Before you can update the reference scale of a feature class, the feature class must be upgraded to the current release using the Upgrade Dataset tool.

  • Caution:

    This tool modifies the input data. See Tools that modify or update the input data for more information and strategies to avoid undesired data changes.

  • You can't update the reference scale of versioned feature classes.

  • Changing the reference scale of a feature class is a computationally intensive operation that requires an update of every feature's bounding box geometry.
