How to shade area between 2 circle polylines

ecorf — Sun, 24 Dec 2023 20:52:41 GMT

I'm using ArcGIS Pro 3.2.1 on my desktop. I want to create a few maps with 2 circles drawn from various distances from the center source. In this example, 0.50 miles and 0.75 miles from the source. I have a circle for each distance. Each circle is a layered polyline. Is there a way to color shade the area between the two circles to further highlight this area?

use a multiring buffer around a center point

Thanks Dan! That got me closer to what I was looking for. I can't get that inner circle to be clear, the same color as the map - because the outer layer color always bleeds through. But, this will probably be workable. Thanks again.

I was able to manipulate the colors a bit to make it very close. This should work fine. Once again. I appreciate it. I made the outer ring hex color: 0064FF 92% transparency and the inner ring hex color: FFEBBE 70% transparency and that made the inner ring mostly match up with the map background. Big Thumbs Up! Thanks again!
