Good morning-

I'm trying to apply a consistent range of graduated colors/ramp across 3 data frames.  I have three years mapping polygons on a percent from 0 - 100%.  The problem is year one only has values 14% - 45% and year three has values 35% - 70%.  How can I apply a consistent range of graduated colors across all three?  Thanks in advance.

Hi,  I would use a Equal Interval color gradient instead of Natural Breaks (sometimes called jenks).  Save the layer out as a layer file.  Then use the Import Symbology option for the other years/layers.  Natural Breaks is the default gradient but sounds like you need it to make all 0-10% one color and 10-20% darker etc.
