Output has Z Values (Environment setting)
Tools that honor the Output has Z Values environment will control whether the output geodataset will store z-values.
Usage notes
- As each feature is written to the output feature class, each vertex that does not already have a z-value will be assigned the value in the Default Output Z Value environment. If the Default Output Z Value environment is not set, a value of 0 (zero) will be set.
Dialog syntax
Same As Input—If the input has z-values, the output will have z-values. If it does not have z-values, the output will not have z-values. This is the default.
Enabled—The output will have z-values.
Disabled—The output will not have z-values.
