Remove 3D Formats From Multipatch tool illustration

Usage

  • The 3D object feature layer enables a multipatch feature class to display its mesh geometry by visualizing effects using the texture and material capabilities supported in one or more associated 3D model formats. The 3D object feature layer is a feature class extension of a multipatch geometry that supports multiple associated tables to allow materials rendering, better performance, and 3D industry standard formats.

  • Many of the 3D formats associated with a multipatch can be edited in a variety of specialized applications. If the material information is no longer needed and all subsequent edits have been completed, consider using this tool to remove the association between those 3D formats from the multipatch.

Feature Layer
Use multipatch materials
(Optional)
Note:

This parameter is no longer supported. The option to control whether multipatch materials were used was removed to improve this tool's usability. Materials will always be used when they are available through the 3D object feature layer, and they will be automatically removed when the 3D object feature layer capabilities are removed from the multipatch. Additional parameters are available using the dedicated API for multipatches.
