GIS Inspector

This command displays all or portions of the data attached to drawing entities in real-time. How much of the attached data is displayed is set by the command GIS Inspector Settings. When you move the cursor over an entity with GIS data, selected fields are displayed in a tooltip box next to the cursor. For data attached to closed polylines, you can move the cursor anywhere inside the polyline to show the data. Polylines that are closed will highlight with a solid fill as you inspect each one. Open polylines, such as road centerlines, will highlight with a solid fill generated along the length of the polyline. The solid fill color for all highlighting is set in GIS Inspector Settings.

The routine starts by prompting you to select entities. The entities that you select will be used by GIS Inspector. In the case of a large drawing, this selection allows you to limit the entities for inspector to a local area instead of having to process the whole drawing. Then after reading the entities, you can move the cursor around the drawing to inspect the GIS data. You can also use the arrow, page up and page down keys to pan and zoom the display. Pressing enter ends the routine.
