topic Update layer properties of mxd in ArcGIS Explorer Desktop Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-explorer-desktop-questions/update-layer-properties-of-mxd/m-p/79701#M484 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hi!</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I have many maps (mxd) that contain the same layer. Now I changed the Layers Properties (e.g. change the colour of a road) and save the layer under the same name as before&nbsp; but the layers in all other mxd do not automatically change. In fact they only change if i delete the layer and reload it into the mxd again. As i ve plenty of maps and frequently change the layer properties I am looking for a way to update or reload the layers automatically. Any suggestions how to solve this issue?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>best regards</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>christian</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 01 Apr 2011 09:38:31 GMT chriss_ 2011-04-01T09:38:31Z Update layer properties of mxd https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-explorer-desktop-questions/update-layer-properties-of-mxd/m-p/79701#M484 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hi!</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I have many maps (mxd) that contain the same layer.
