How to copy annotation from one subclass to another.
Answer:
One option is to use the DUPLICATE command in ARCEDIT. This copies any selected pieces of annotation into a new or existing annotation subclass.
ARCEDIT: EDIT FEATURE ANNO.SOILS
ARCEDIT: SELECT MANY
ARCEDIT: DUPLICATE DIRT
/*This creates an subclass called 'dirt' if it does not.
/*exist, or allows you to append to a subclass called
/*'dirt' if it already exists.
Another option is to use the ARC command COPYFEATURES.
ARC: COPYFEATURES COV1 ANNO.SOILS COV1 ANNO.DIRT
The COPYFEATURES command can also be used to copy annotation into a subclass
from annotation not in a subclass, or copy annotation not in a subclass to annotation in a subclass.
ARC: COPYFEATURES COV1 ANNO COV1 ANNO.SOILS
ARC: COPYFEATURES COV1 ANNO.SOILS COV1 ANNO
Note:
The PUT and GET commands in ARCEDIT and the COPYFEATURES command at the ARC prompt can be used to move annotation from one coverage to another.
