How to add an image/text on map at a desired position dynamically

ShaningYu — Thu, 19 Jul 2012 13:03:55 GMT

In one of previous thread, http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/625...sired-position, I questioned how to add an image/text on the map at desired position. From the response, I used the approach of adding a static image. It works. However, I also plan to print/export this image/text with the map. Using ESRI's PrintWidget (V3.0), the static image/text is filtered out. Now, I have to add a dynamic image/text on the map at a desired position in order to get it printed/exported with the map. How can this be easily coded? Is there any good sample? Thanks.

There is no easy way to code that.

There is no sample.

In theory, you might be able to figure You would have to add the image/text as a graphics layer (in the right map location). The easier, and better, way is to use ArcMap to create a custom layout that already has your image/text in the proper location.
