Name the Merged Feature dialog box

The Name the Merged Feature dialog box allows you to assign labels to the new merged feature.

The Labels table displays information for each key in the map file and allows you to assign a label for each key.

New Label. Enter a new label for the merged feature to assign to the specific map key.

Key. The map key to which you are assigning the new label.

Old Labels. The labels for the features that will be merged into the new feature.

Remove boundaries between touching polygons. Check this option to remove the boundaries from the features that were merged together. For example, if you merged states into geographic regions, this option would remove the boundaries around the individual states.
