Map Series - Can It Show Only The Feature Being Referenced By The Index vs All That Are In The Map Extent?

GRmapper — Wed, 16 Feb 2022 17:31:32 GMT

Hello,

I have a created all the required parts including a layout to support building a map series. Currently when I run Map Series > Spatial I get a series and while each page is the correct extent based on the indexed feature, I see the feature I want but also all the other features in that layer within the extent. I'd like to only see the single feature based on the attribute used in the Layout Properties form (ie one feature ID per series page.

Layout Properties > Map Series

Layer: Index Layer

Name Field: Road_ID

Sort Field: Road_ID

Sort Ascending

Group By: None

There are a couple of ways to do this! You can clip the map series to the index feature or use a page query on the index layer.

Thank you for the reply. I noticed that when in Map Series I have the Best Fit, Center and Maintain and Use Scale from Fields but I never get access to the Clip to Index Feature checkbox.

Any thoughts on that?

Thanks again!

Odd, the checkbox should be there below the radio buttons. What version of Pro are you using? Maybe it's an older version before this feature was added?

I check box is grayed out and unavailable. Hmm.

Is your index feature a point layer?

No. They are lines.

Ah, that's why. You can't clip a map to a linear feature. You'll need to use a page query in this instance.

I'll give that a go. Thank you again.

Yep That did it. One last thought that will likely lead to a new thread. I have text in my layout as well. At the moment that gets updated as did the map BEFORE applying a page query. So one text field on the layout has all the values of the rows in the it references. Is there a Page Query-like equivalent for the standalone tables that populate text fields?

Not for a stand-alone table. If the text is based on an attribute table you can use dynamic table text and filter by map series rows, but stand-alone tables don't have that connection.

Can you clip to a polygon feature? And can this be done using a Bookmark Map Series or only a Spatial Map Series?

Re: Map Series - Can It Show Only The Feature Being Referenced By The Index vs All That Are In The Map Extent?

Bookmark map series don't support clipping at the map series level, you would have to clip them in your map. For a spatial map series you can clip to the index feature which will update for each page.
