Parameters
Expression | Explanation |
---|---|
<input_dataset> | A Point feature class or feature layer |
<out_feature_class> | A String - the full name of the output feature class (A feature class with the same full name should not exist) |
<number_sides> | An Integer defining the number of sides of the polygons to be created. |
<Radius In | Radius Out | Side> | Required. A String indicating the
meaning of the <SIZE> parameter
|
<Size> | A Double representing the size (see above for options) |
<size_field> | A String representing the name of a field in the in the attribute table of the input dataset. The field has the values for the size of the polygons to be created. |
{rotation_angle} | A Double representing the rotation angle (see above) |
