The lab test was fairly straightforward, at least until I had an error digitizing the new building footprints. It would not allow me to create a new feature because the feature was out of bounds. This was a new error and I wasn't quite sure how to correct it. I did notice I could draw the feature inside where the CAD layer was, just not anywhere else. Not sure if that had to do with the data frame coordinate system. I loaded the buildings shapefile first so the data frame had real world coordinates. I also thought it might be related to the coordinate system of the building footprints layer, but changing that didn't make any difference. I wonder if anyone else had any problems? Maybe Pete can explain?
