As Feature Builder is a component of Feature Editing, it is only available for OGC Layers i.e. where the data is held in a PostgreSQL database. The PostgreSQL database can be on either the Local iShare server or a Remote server such as a the iShare SDW. Feature Editing is allowed across all schemas in the PostgreSQL database not just the public schema. Permission is granted via the Layer Roles tab on the Roles node in Studio. In addition, the Map Source in which a Layer resides must be secured with one or more Roles before a Layer is editable - see Applying Roles to Map Sources for more information.

There is a new Add Polygon button on the Editing Toolbar in Feature Editing to allow you to add a polygon to an existing selection. There is also a Remove Polygon button to remove it.

Using Feature Builder

Once you have selected to Edit Features for your Polygon Layer and selected the New feature button, you will see the Feature Builder switch under the Feature Editing heading. It will also be enabled if you select an existing Polygon feature using the Select feature button and clicking on the existing polygon on the map.

If you click on non-adjacent features, you may end up with a shape that contains multiple parts and the Save button will be disabled.
