Some basemaps included in printed output legend

Question

Some, though not all, basemaps are being included in the printed (esri default print service) output legend from EB. For example, the imagery basemap will include 6 items, while the vector topo includes none. The non vector topo shows World_Hillshade in the legend. There is no symbology tile - just the text.

I haven't discovered anyway to control this in Map Viewer or EB (turning 'Show in Legend' off in Map Viewer basemap properties doesn't stick). Is there a solution to this - I don't need basemaps to show in the legend.

Hi @Juan_Toro-Killion

I can confirm that the solution does work for me.  I also am running Enterprise 11.5 on Windows.  Please check each of your sublayers.  In the follow screenshot I toggled off "Show in basemap legend" 4 times, once for each sublayer and main map layer service.  I did find that even though I had toggled off the main map layer service, I still needed to go back and toggle off each sublayer in order for the layer not to show in the legend.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Heath

Hey Heath,

I just tried your workaround for the same issue that the original poster was experiencing and it did not resolve the problem for me. Can you confirm that this works for you?

Hi @AndrewSpencer ,

I am not sure if this has been answered yet but I believe I have a the solution for you.

For each web map in your basemap gallery you will need to toggle the "Show in basemap legend" off.  If you have 7 web map basemaps in your gallery group, you will need to do that 7 times and for each layer within the web map.  I have road centerline a top of aerials so i need to turn each of those off both the Reference centerlines and the Base raster imagery.  Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Heath
