I tried your, kamkashem, proposed version. After importing "os", one error message disappeared :D. But the problem of over writing each output ("str(X)") with the next one is not solved yet. So, How can i accomplish that str(x) is something like Str(Xi) for i=1...80     Or even nicer i = name of group layer. Because the jpeg format is more sympathetic to me, i inspired me also from this thread: http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/63173-Problem-accessing-ModelBuilder-variable-in-a-python-script (especially the record from  07-27-2012 08:40 PM ). my actual piece of code is the following: # --------------------------------------------------------------------------- # map_production.py # # Description: "Should" generate jpg layout outputs of the input layernames # --------------------------------------------------------------------------- print "START map production" print "arcpy and os importieren" import arcpy import os, sys, string, arcgisscripting print "done arcpy and os and so on import" gp = arcgisscripting.create(9.3) scriptVar=gp.GetParameterAsText(0) outfile = "test" + scriptVar +".jpg" print "specify mxd" #Specifies mxd  mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument(r"H:/Desktop/Masterarbeit/test/Besprechung_Schmitten_Neu_6.mxd") print "done mxd spezifizieren" print "specify dataframe" #Specifies dataframe of interest df = arcpy.mapping.ListDataFrames(mxd, "Layers")[0] print "done specify df " #Turns all layers off print "turn visibility of all layers off" for lyr in arcpy.mapping.ListLayers(mxd,"",df):    lyr.visible = False    arcpy.RefreshTOC()    arcpy.RefreshActiveView()    print "visibility = False  " #Turns backgroundlayers on print "turn backgroundlayer on: Visibility = true" for lyr in arcpy.mapping.ListLayers(mxd, "hillshade*", df):    lyr.visible = True    arcpy.RefreshTOC()    arcpy.RefreshActiveView() print "background = visible" print "start withE_95CI" #Loops through the layers given in the quotas (eg. beginning with E_95CI) and creates a list of Layers: for lyr in arcpy.mapping.ListLayers(mxd, "E_95CI", df):     print" produced list"     #For Each: Turn it on:     lyr.visible = True     print " visible: on"     arcpy.RefreshTOC()     print " TOC refreshed"     arcpy.RefreshActiveView()     print " Active View refreshed"     print "exporting for each layer starting with ""E_95CI"" a JPEG map within the folder map_export and the name construction ""outfile"" "     arcpy.mapping.ExportToJPEG(mxd, r"H://Desktop/map_export/" + outfile, df,df_export_width=1600, df_export_height=1200) print "done_" mxd.save() print "done_ 20" #Deletes the reference to the mxd from memory (not the actual mxd file) del mxd While it is possible to generate a the list E_95CI, the export to jpeg fails.

I tested it empirically. The solution is 3 layers can be input in a single query, but you can list many query in a row... ... View more

Hi there, I have got aswell some problems with the Extract multi values to point tool. I exported the pythonscript of the tool and expanded it up to 72 inputlayers. Like that, it crashed. When I alter it in the manner, that just 3 Layers should be evaluated, it worked fine. So i ask myself: is there a maximum number of attachable layers to this tool? If so: How many? Thanks Cheers! ... View more

Hi Mel, I got the problem, why it stopped after two layers: it was due to the mxd.save() after every second layer symbolisation. Thanks a lot for all your Help and your Time you have invested! Now i can really work with the data, compare them and make useful maps! ... View more

Hi, to load the layers to the mxd wasn't that hard. But instead of altering the code for each of the 20 (i recounted them:cool:) and dispatch them all one by one, i thought it should be possible to nest them. The result is the following code. First the nice thing about: the script worked totally through, all the 20. "dones" were printed. But when i opened afterwards the mxd i realised, that just the symbology of sourceLayer1 and sourceLayer2 were adapted. Do you see the fault or problem? # --------------------------------------------------------------------------- # iteration durch raster_und symbol.py # Created on: 2012-12-31 01:39:43.00000 #

Wow cool, this script worked well:), Thanks!! I asked for looping through a folder, because i haven't loaded yet all raster-layers into the .mxd. This is a bit extra work, because i have to generate sub- and sub-sub-folders. But by now, i have prepared my seven different .lyr-source files. Next step will  be to load all layers into the map and then i will apply the script again to all layers with all different source layers... ... View more

Hi Melanie, Thanks for your reply and the remark, that the "iterations" just works within the modelbuilder. The mentioned for-loop construction within a map document (.mxd) would be useful, even better would be one within a workspace or folder. But as far as I can assess it (-> ListLayers), this is not possible this way. Thanks for your help, I would really appreciate a code example... 🙂  i'm trying and trying... but dont get anywhere... ... View more
