Dear all, I have a problem with the function Kriging. I've searched on the internet and on these forums but I can't seem to find the solution. I have a polygon shapefile and a point shapefile. The points have elevation values. I want to make a surface using kriging, based on the elevation values from the points, and extended over the polygon shapefile. The problem is that the kriging functions creates a 'horizontal' rectangle while my polygon has a different shape. I want the new surface, created with the kriging function, to extend over the existing polygon. Anyone knows how to do this? My workspace exists of many of these polygons with points shapefiles next to eachother and I want to make a surface overview of the elevation values. See the attachment for a simplified image of the problem. ... View more

Hi all, It seems like a simple task but I can't figure out how to do this. I want to manually move a group of layers (points, polylines and polygons) in my map. Just drag it a short distance to a new position. It's important that I move all the layers (or the single group layer) in one go because they have to stay in the same relative position. I'm using ArcGIS 10.0 with SP4. Thanks in advance. ... View more

Hello all, I'm new to the forums and rather new to ArcGIS. I'm using ArcGIS 10.0 with SP4. I'm trying to edit a shapefile but it seems to be not editable. I've searched on these forums for a solution but I couldn't find it. I have a lot of shapefiles in my TOC and I've been editing many of them. All works well, I'm slowly figuring out how the new editing environment works. I learned how to create a feature template (if it doesn't happen automatically) by going into a editing session, clicking 'organize templates' in the create feature window. Then I select the layer and click 'new template'. But here's the problem: one of the layers I need to edit doesn't show in the 'organize feature templates' window. When I unclick 'Editable layers only' it shows and I can see that this layer actually has a feature template. But somehow, the layer is not editable and it doesn't show in the Create Features window. I'm sure the permissions to the files are okay and not set to read-only. The layer is switched on in the TOC. I'm not using any definition queries. So, why is this layer not editable? It is supposed to be the same as many other layers in my TOC (except for the features in it ofcourse). I hope someone can help me. ... View more
