Hello,
I have an MXD with two data frames. I want to use Data Driven Pages (DDP) to export this to PDF but have the second of the data frames be one extent ahead. I have the following script to export the two frames with the same extent using DDP. I want to have frame2 be one ahead of the DDP page of the master frame. Any ideas?
#set map document
mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument("CURRENT")
#set master data frame - dataframe with DDP already applied
masterFrame = arcpy.mapping.ListDataFrames(mxd)
#set second data frame to copy master
frame2 = arcpy.mapping.ListDataFrames(mxd,"New Data Frame")
#for loop to process DDP using number of pages
for pageNum in range(1, mxd.dataDrivenPages.pageCount + 1):
#mxd.dataDrivenPages.currentPageID = pageNum
frame2[0].extent = masterFrame[0].extent
arcpy.mapping.ExportToPDF(mxd, r"C:\Users\user\Desktop\a\"+ str(pageNum) + '.pdf')
