AbstractCustom Rendering in ArcInfo 8 Using Feature Class Extensions Track: Cartography and Map Production Author(s): Barry Elliott A very powerful feature of the geodatabase data model is the ability to assign custom behavior through the use of a feature class extension. This paper discusses how to integrate a custom renderer with a feature class extension so that the feature class is automatically rendered with user-defined symbolization when it is loaded into ArcMap or previewed in ArcCatalog. Developed for the U.S. Army's Digital Topographic Support System, the application allows users to specify the desired symbolization by changing properties of symbols in a style file that is linked to the custom renderer.
