Automatically save length and areas in spatial db?

Have a look at the Geospatial Administrator Tips on this page:  communities.bentley.com/.../3346.aspx

Thanks guys.

How can I automatically write feature length into database?

I have a column length in DB and want to update feature length automatically when I draw.

Try adding this in your Feature Definition in the Geospatial Administrator:

• Create a Feature -- Add Properties

• Add a New Initial Value for the Property

• Key = editing | Synch Preference = OFF | Value Type = cexpression |

• Value = [([FeatureName.Length])]

It does not work for me. I don't get feature length in the database.

Here are steps that I do:

-  My DB table has 3 columns, id, geometry and length.

- I register the feature from database.

- I add Initial Value for Length text property.

 Key = editing | Synch Preference = OFF | Value Type = cexpression |

 Value = [([FeatureName.Length])]

- After run workspace and draw new line, can I see that a new record is created with geometry, but there are no length.

What is wrong???

Deniss, please attach the GSA Schema .xml file and we'll take a look to see what might be causing the problem.
