Learning ArcGIS Pro

Congratulations! You have created your first step. You are not done yet. You have more
steps that need to be created to complete this workflow.
Step 3 – selecting the street segment
Now you need to add a step that instructs the user to select the road segment, which will
be repaired. You will use the Select by Rectangle tool and instruct the user to select the
road from the map.
1. Click on the New Step button in the Tasks pane to create another new step.
2. Compete the general parameters as follows:
Name: Select Road Segment
Tooltip: Select road segment which will be repaired
Instruction: Click on the Run button to start this step. Then using the Select by
Rectangle tool, select the road segment from the map which is scheduled to be
repaired. If you have already selected the road segment, you may skip this step.
Run/Proceed Instructions: Once you have selected the road segment that is
scheduled for repair, click on the Next Step button.
Step Behavior: Manual
Enable Optional to allow the user to skip if they have already selected a road
segment.
3. Click on the Actions option at the top of the Task Designer pane.
4. Move your mouse pointer to the area that says and click on the Record icon.
5. Click on the Select tool located in the MAP tab. Make sure that it is the Select by
Rectangle. Note that this tool is automatically added as the action.
Since you will have the user select a feature on a specific layer in this step, you want to
limit the selectable layers available when they run this step. As you learned earlier, you
can do this through the Contents settings in a step.
1. Click on Contents located on the top of the Task Designer pane.
2. When this task is run, you want to make sure that the Streets layer is visible and
selectable. Click on the – locate next to Streets under the Visibility column until it
becomes a green check mark. Do the same for the Select column.
3. To ensure that no other layers are accidentally selected, you want to set the remaining
layers to none selectable by clicking on the – in the Select column until they all have
a red X.
Your Task Designer pane should look like this when you are done:
