How do I color code my elements in the ArcMap and ArcGIS Pro integrated versions of WaterGEMS, SewerGEMS and HAMMER. As of version 10.03.02.75, only WaterGEMS integrates with ArcGIS Pro.
Using Layer Symbology
1. Ensure that the field you would like to color code on is added to the respective GeoTable.
2. In the WaterGEMS tab, go to Join Geotables > Add Joins (Geotables). This will update the attribute table with data from the GeoTable.
3. Select the layer that you want to color code from the Contents menu
4. To open the Layer Symbology window, either go to the WaterGEMS tab and choose Join Geotables > Initialize Symbology or right-click on the layer name in the Contents menu and choose Initialize Symbology.
5. Configure the color coding as desired and click "OK".
Note:
Using ArcMap features/tools
This method uses GIS features/tools to color code the elements.
2. Right-click on a layer in the Contents menu and choose Symbology.
3. Select the best method from the left and then pick corresponding options on the right.
4. Click Apply > OK.
2. From the main WaterGEMS menu > View > and make sure that "Auto Refresh" and "Apply WaterGEMS Renderer" both have check marks next to them.
3. Next select the layer that you want to color code for by left clicking on it once it the table of contents. It should highlight in blue.
4. Go to the main WaterGEMS menu > Tools > Layer Symbology. This will open the familiar WaterGEMS color coding dialog window.
2. Right click on a layer > Properties > Symbology
The attributes available to color code and annotate on are based on the attributes included in the GeoTables, which is a special type of Flextable. For this reason, some property fields may need to be added to the element GeoTable first before you are able to add color coding or annotations.
To add fields to the FlexTables, open the FlexTables manager. In ArcGIS Pro, go the WaterGEMS tab or the Water-View tab and choose FlexTables. In ArcMap, click the product menu (Such as Bentley WaterGEMS), then select View > FlexTables.
In the FlexTables manager, scroll to the"GeoTables" section and open the table corresponding to the element type in question. The fields shown in this table will be linked to the geodatabase (MDB or GDB file created when first setting up the project in ArcMap mode) and thus will be available to ArcMap for symbology. Click the Edit button at the top of the FlexTable to add or remove attributes. The following link has more information on doing this: Customizing FlexTables for viewing and reporting data - Moving, adding, and removing columns.
