How to create an Inset Map only on specific pages in a Map Series

JamesBooth — Fri, 10 Mar 2023 20:19:37 GMT

I currently have a Map Series that was generated using a Polygon Grid with a "Name" attribute that defines each map series page. On some of these pages, I'd like to add an Inset map with a larger scale to show further detail on that map page. I would like that inset map frame to disappear if I navigate to a different page in the map series (one without an inset). Any suggestions?

For further clarity, I believe this is essentially what I'm trying to achieve, but I want to do this in ArcGIS Pro, not ArcMap....

Creating a map book with inset maps—ArcMap | Documentation (arcgis.com)

It must be possible in ArcGIS Pro! Anyone out there attempt this?

You should be able to script this. I don't have an exact script, but I like use these examples as starting points https://www.arcgis.com/home/group.html?sortField=modified&sortOrder=desc&id=398a345905c845e38229c15f5353d4e9&view=list&rsource=https%3A%2F%2Fesriurl.com%2Farcpy.mp%2Fsamples#content

Maybe one of them can help?

Unfortunately, I have not yet. Would really love to get this working though!
