When creating a layout of large area map with a lot of data, I'll sometimes create bookmarks of sectioned areas from the map, all at the same scale. Even at the zoomed in bookmark scale, there is often a need for an inset map to show data at a even more zoomed in scale, but only for certain maps in the series.
I currently have to manually set up the inset map a certain way for one map in the series, and then remove it for the rest, and if any edits are needed I have to restart the process.. I know I can set up guides in the layout, and that there is an option to export the map series one map at a time. However, it would be nice if I could just tell the program that I want an inset to stay a one or more maps within the series, without it effecting all of the maps.
I found this script that I think is going the direction I would like, but I don't want to have dig deep into scripting if I don't have to: MapSeries_LayoutManager_Pro24 - Overview,
If there isn't already an automated way to assign inset maps to a map(s) within a series, I would like to propose this as an idea for ArcGIS Pro, as it would help save me time.
Thank you.
