Similar to how you can toggle the visibility of a graphic element, like a photo, based on the map series via page query, it would be helpful to extend this to an inset map. 

 

For example, I have a map series of 20, each map is showing soil samples along a river. The map series are created at standard scales that make the majority of samples readable without adding too many maps in the end. This often means that in some situations there are samples that are too close together and are not readable. For only map series where this happens, I need to add inset maps to show the samples at a larger scale. I do not need these inset maps to show up on all map series. 

I know this functionality can be done with graphic elements where we can toggle site photo placeholders on/off depending on fields inside the map series layer. I've read that there is python coding that can toggle layout elements on/off but it is complicated. Instead having this querying available in the UI (as what happens with graphics) would be most helpful.
