Add Ability to Lock / Freeze Map Series Pages

JamesPoeschel

It would be helpful to have the ability to lock a map series so users could make edits to all pages individually without having changes be synced on all the map pages.

This would allow us to essentially create map series for multiple dynamic map frames per map series page (as that is a current known limitation of map series), since we would be able to create a map series for one of the map frames, then freeze/ disable the sync on the map pages, then manually set the other map extents.

In my example below, I have two map frames on the right that should change on each page. Their extents are shown in the locator map and the next page should be two new view extents. Currently, this type of map is not possible to make a map series: I am limited to one dynamic map frame per map series page, but that'd result in 160 maps, instead of 80 layouts.

That is an interesting case. I would script the page generation. You could have static maps and layouts generate with a script so you can tweak each layout individually (I recently had to do that to the tune of 201 maps and layouts) or you could update the layers in the map and the extents of the single layout then export to PDF so it simulates the map series affect. Setting the extent of a dataframe is a bit roundabout. You cannot directly pan or zoom to a feature but you can get the extent of the feature from its geometry and apply that to the camera property of the dataframe.
