Command line syntax - ET_GPCreateTilesExtent
ET_GPCreateTilesExtent <out_feature_class> {out_spatial_reference} <shape_type> {get_extents_from} <Extent> <Size_represents> <Size> {Orientation}
Parameters
Expression | Explanation |
---|---|
<out_feature class> | A String - the full name of the output feature class (A feature class with the same full name should not exist) |
{out_spatial_reference} | The spatial reference of the output feature class. If not specified the output will be created with Unknown coordinate system |
<shape_type> | A String controlling the shape type of the output tiles - "Triangle", "Square" or "Hexagon" |
{get_extents_from} | A String - a layer name or the full name of the a feature class to be used as a source for the extents. |
<Extent> | An Envelope representing the extents - "XMin YMin XMax YMax" |
<Size_represents> | Required. A String indicating the
meaning of the <SIZE> parameter
|
<Size> | A Double representing the size (see above for options) |
{Orientation} | A String representing the tile orientation - "Flat" or "Pointy" - for Square or Hexagon tiles only. |

Parameters
Expression | Explanation |
---|---|
<out_feature class> | A String - the full name of the output feature class (A feature class with the same full name should not exist) |

<shape_type> | A String controlling the shape type of the output tiles - "Triangle", "Square" or "Hexagon" |
<X_origin> | A Double representing the X coordinate of the lower left corner of the grid. |
<Y_origin> | A Double representing the Y coordinate of the lower left corner of the grid. |
<Number_Columns> | A Long representing the number of columns that the resulting grid will have |
<Number_Rows> | A Long representing the number of rows that the resulting grid will have |
<Size_represents> | Required. A String indicating the
meaning of the <SIZE> parameter
|
<Size> | A Double representing the size (see above for options) |
{Orientation} | A String representing the tile orientation - "Flat" or "Pointy" - for Square or Hexagon tiles only. |
