Civil 3D object type that is created from the ArcGIS layer.
- Layer Name
- Displays the name of the ArcGIS layer in the dataset.
- Title
- Displays the title of the ArcGIS dataset.
-
Imported Objects
- Displays the number of
Civil 3D objects created from the imported ArcGIS data.
- Added Objects
- Displays the number of
Civil 3D objects that were added to the ArcGIS layer using the
Move to ArcGIS Layer command.
- Layer URL
- Displays the URL of the dataset on ArcGIS. You can right-click the cell and select Copy Value to Clipboard to copy the URL so you can paste it into a browser.
- Import Date
- Displays the date the ArcGIS dataset was imported.

- All objects in the selected dataset layer are saved back to ArcGIS, regardless of whether they were modified in
Civil 3D or not.
-
Civil 3D objects that have been added to an ArcGIS layer are saved back to ArcGIS. You can add new objects to an ArcGIS layer by using the
Move to ArcGIS Layer command.
- Geometry and property set data is saved back to ArcGIS.

To Save Back Datasets to ArcGIS.
Support for saving back changes to ArcGIS
Some object types that are created by importing an ArcGIS dataset cannot be saved back to the original ArcGIS layer. If you want to be able to save back changes later, you can assign the
Civil 3D object types that support Save Back when you bring an ArcGIS dataset into a drawing.
