Gorup turn on and turn off of graphic layers in the layout view

When in the layout view, I wish there was a way to select multiple graphics and have a turn on or turn off option - instead of manually having to turn each on/off. We can select multiple layers in a map and turn them on/off, however, it doesn't appear this option is available for graphics in layouts. This would save time in workflows.

Hi @Emily_Jenkins

I'm pretty sure you can already do this. After you have you graphics selected press the CTRL on your keyboard, and with the this key pressed, click the checkbox next to one of the items you have selected in the Contents pane. This should toggle the visibility for all the selected elements. It should be the same experience you have with toggling the visibility of multiple, selected layers in a map.

Please let us know if this doesn't fit into your workflow or it you had something more specific in mind.

Thanks,

Tom

Hey @Emily_Jenkins!

I will be closing this Idea as it is already offered. Like @TomBole mentioned below, you can accomplish this by holding the Ctrl key on your keyboard and clicking on the checkbox of one of the elements you would like to turn on / off.
