If so, I've recently had the same problem and as always there are probably multiple reasons why and ways to go about trouble-shooting. </P><P></P><P>I have 10.2 as well. What I tried that was ultimately successful was to build pyramids and statistics. This tool can be found in the Toolbox under Raster--&gt;Raster Properties--&gt;Build Pyramids and Statistics. </P><P></P><P>Just setting the scale on the layer in the table of contents didn't seem to have any results for me, though I'm not discouraging you from trying that as well.</P><P></P><P>-Jared</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 01 Jul 2015 00:11:50 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/mapping-questions/map-disappears-when-scale-is-changed/m-p/529250#M5729 jaredpilbeam 2015-07-01T00:11:50Z Re: Map disappears when scale is changed https://community.esri.com/t5/mapping-questions/map-disappears-when-scale-is-changed/m-p/529251#M5730 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I didn't think about it before, but if you mean that some features from a layer (feature class or shapefile) disappear as you zoom in or out, that can indicate a problem with the data's spatial index. Delete it and recreate it (in ArcCatalog).</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 01 Jul 2015 21:56:25 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/mapping-questions/map-disappears-when-scale-is-changed/m-p/529251#M5730 MelitaKennedy 2015-07-01T21:56:25Z Re: Map disappears when scale is changed https://community.esri.com/t5/mapping-questions/map-disappears-when-scale-is-changed/m-p/529252#M5731 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Thank you for the follow-up. I suspect this is what is occurring. I will take your suggestion and also go back to the tutorial information.
