Hello guys!
I work with 3D Gis applicate to archeology. I need to create a specific graph.xml into Arc scene (see attachment). It is a graphic block very important in archeology sector.

The goal is create this graph into 3d Gis and link it to 3d model in the scene. I would like develop a specific script in python with my graphic interface that allow to build and manage a graph like this, with specific shapes.

The question is: when I program my script in a general code editor (Notepad ++), then I where have to put this script for allow to visualize into 3d gis?

I would like to insert in ArcToolbox/Data Managemen Tools/Graph the my graphics interface.
It is possible?

Thanks a lot!

Your basic options are

  • create a model using modelbuilder
  • create tools in a custom toolbox
  • create tools in a python toolbox

If what you propose can be translated into python, then you can begin with one of those options.  Other options do exist both to work inside and outside of Pro
