Parcel Rename Map 3d 2019 Features

[townest]

Hello,

I have created parcels with Map 3d Features (Not Civil 3d) held in an SDF.  My schema is simple, FeatID (default required), Geometry (default required), and ParcelName (User Input String).  Is there a technique to batch rename ParcelNames for all selected Parcel Features?  I'm thinking along the lines of parcel rename in Civil 3d.  Let me know.  Thank you!

Query all the parcels that are the same that need changing, select them and change the property and check in

Since there are thousands of records, I need an automated solution similar to C3d parcel renumbering, or Express tool renumbering for text.

You know there are no good Autocad tools for manipulating original FDO datasource without import/export.

Autocad Map is good for creating thematics, edit feature geometries, doing some overlay analyzes, but when you have to modify more than one feature simultainously then Autocad is not good at all.

Easiest way is to save this sdf layer as .sqlite  and use "DB Browser for sqlite" to modify properties using  SQL syntax.

Hi @townest,

just an idea.

Create Excel with the new names and add it as FDO ODBC datasource to DWG.

Create a join to the SDF (ID to create the join should be the old name).

Export the SDF layer in Task Pane (via right mouse button) and add the Excel column with the new names to the export.

Result is SDF with new column containing new name.

Other idea might be to create Industry Model (DWG with SQLite) there we have a function called GLOBAL UPDATE allow to change all values of filtered features in one process.

Since we have only 3 attributes and polygon feature class it can be done very easy.

Kind regards

some information is needed.

How are records to be selected? by geographical location, by data in the ParcelNames field, or by other means?

Is each record to be changed differently?

How are the records to be changed?  ie yellow to green, blue to red, pink to black? or by amending the data, i.e. Lot 1  to Lot 1 - Street Name?, Lot 2 to Lot 2 - Street Name?  

Do the records have anything in common such as location, containment in a geographical area, spelling?

Not sure "DB Browser for sqlite" will work because renaming parcels is a spatially visual exercise.  But, I will accept your answer that there is no good way.
