Use queries to add objects
Use Draw mode queries to retrieve information in attached drawing files and
add them to your drawing. In this lesson, you use two types of Draw mode
queries:
■
Property queries — Retrieve objects based on properties such as color,
linetype, or layer.
■
Location queries — Retrieve objects based on location conditions such as
boundaries and buffer distances.
Alter object properties with a query
A special type of query allows you to alter the properties of the objects as you
add them to the map. For example, you can break out objects into layers,
changing the layer property for the objects as you add them to your map.
Exercise 1: Attach source drawings
In this exercise, you open a drawing for the city of Redding, California. You
attach three source drawings that contain parcel, sewer, and drainage
information. Even though the drawings are attached, no objects appear until
you perform a Quick View or a Preview mode query.
