Data Driven Pages

JustinBierschwale — Tue, 22 Feb 2011 01:31:35 GMT

I'm starting to learn a little about setting up multiple layouts utilizing the Data Driven Pages in ArcGIS 10. I have a polygon feature class that contains approximately 250 seperate polygons that will be created. The polygons are very close to each other; in some cases sharing actual boundaries.

Is there a way to setup the pages so that only the active polygon is shown on a single page? In other words, right now when I run the tool, it may have 5 polygons showing with the one the page focuses on being in the center. Is there a way to make the other 4 transparent on that particular page?

Thanks.

Right click on the data frame and select Data Frame Properties. Go to the Data Frame tab and then at the bottom of the window you should see "Clip Options". There you can select to clip to the current extent of the index polygon, and include or exclude any other layers in that clip.
