Additional Information

This is a known limitation of the 'Extract Multi Values to Points' tool and is not to be addressed. Use the workaround as follows: Before running the 'Extract Multi Values to Points' tool: 1. Make a copy of the Sonar_Contact dataset. 2. Save Label expression and style (Labels are lost too). After running the 'Extract Multi Values to Points' tool: 1. Add the copy dataset to the map. 2. Run Add Representations on the original dataset with: a. The copy dataset map layer as the 'Import Rule Layer'. b. RuleID as Rule ID Field Name (remove _1 suffix) c. Override as Override FIeld Name (remove _1 suffix) 3. Re-add the original dataset to the map from the catalogue. The representations are back. 4. Use saved Label expression and style to re-build the labels. 5. Delete copy of dataset.

Workaround

  • Do not use representation
  • Change Single Symbol so that it is the same as representation
