Basemap Scale Changes

Question

Hi,

How do you change the point at which one of the stock basemaps changes scale? I would like to be able to use one of the smaller scale basemaps but zoomed out at a point where it naturally reverts to a larger scale basemap. Any help with this would be great!

Thanks,

Luke

This solution looks like it needs to be adapted for ArcGIS Pro 2.3.0 - see https://gis.stackexchange.com/a/310709/115

You're correct.  In Pro, it will "update basemap."  To get around this, go to the Project Pane, click Portal, click the cloud icon and search for a new basemap - USA_Topo_Maps for example and add it to the current map.  Now you have two basemaps.  From there, you can set scale dependent displays on both layers.

Hi Robert,

Thanks for your quick reply. I am referring to the ESRI default basemaps yes... how do you add one twice? I can only change the basemap, not add two in ArcGIS Pro?

Thanks,
