Create a new feature layer. You can use a feature layer to create new features or edit existing features.
You can save the contents of a feature layer to a HOB file using the Save Active Layer command. If you close a feature layer or exit CARIS, you will be asked if you want to save the feature layer.
This command allows you to specify the spatial extent of the new feature layer.
