  1. Customizing ArcGIS

  2. Why learn customization? • Make the software suit your preferences • Automate repetitive tasks • Use tools from other sources • Increase the power of the software • Looks great on a resumé

  3. Customization “levels” • Project-specific – saved to the .mxd • Profile/installation-specific – saved to the normal template (normal.mxt) • Extensions – Windows dll (need a compiler to create these)

  4. Normal template vs. mxd • Normal.mxt is stored in your user directory C:\Documents and settings\chrisg\Application Data\ESRI\ArcMap\Templates\ • Anything saved in normal.mxt is available in all projects • Anything saved in the .mxd is only available in that project • It’s important to make sure you’re saving customizations where you want them!
