Map Grid layering issue

Anonymous User

Hello,

My map grid is interfering with the text on my map, that is, it is layered on top of the text.  I was wondering if anyone has a method of ordering the grid so the text/annotation falls on top of the grid.

Hi Alex!

My workaround to that is to convert the grid into graphics on Grids Tab of the Layer Properties, Ungroup the converted graphics and then play with the ordering of that specific grid line that's interfering with your annotation (send to back maybe).

Another way is to apply mask in that specific annotation but it's up to you as the cartographer. 🙂 Let me know if the first one worked.
