Hello,
I am currently working on an automated mapping process in arcpy (using arcmap 10).
What I need to do is import two different ".tif" files into separate dataframes. lets call the first tif file "Tif_1" and the second "Tif_2".
so my TOC would look like the following:
DF1:
Tif_1
DF2:
Tif_2
Tif_1
Tif_1 is a 3 band composite image, and Tif_2 is a single band image that i want to show on top of Tif_1
The script i use is the following:
x=0
for tiff in PLlist:
#Get Name of 'tiff'
desc = arcpy.Describe(tiff)
name = desc.baseName
#Insert TrueColor into TrueColor DF
inTClyr = arcpy.mapping.Layer(TClist)
arcpy.mapping.AddLayer(TC,inTClyr,"TOP")
arcpy.ApplySymbologyFromLayer_management(inTClyr,symbTC)
arcpy.RefreshTOC()
arcpy.RefreshActiveView()
#Insert TrueColor into Plume DF
inTClyr2 = arcpy.mapping.Layer(TClist)
arcpy.mapping.AddLayer(PL,inTClyr,"TOP")
arcpy.ApplySymbologyFromLayer_management(inTClyr2,symbTC1)
arcpy.mapping.UpdateLayer(PL,inTClyr2,symbTC1, True)
arcpy.RefreshTOC()
arcpy.RefreshActiveView()
#Insert Plume into Plume DF
inPLlyr = arcpy.mapping.Layer(PLlist)
arcpy.mapping.AddLayer(PL,inPLlyr,"TOP")
arcpy.ApplySymbologyFromLayer_management(inPLlyr,symbPL)
arcpy.RefreshTOC()
arcpy.RefreshActiveView()
However, the problem i am having is that neither of the true color composites ("Tif_1") have their symbologies updated. They both come into their respective dataframes being displayed as single band stretched images, and even though i have saved a .lyr file with symbology as a true color composite the "Tif_1" images fail to accept the new symbology.
**though the code is incomplete here, no errors are presented when i run the code, the symbology layers just don't apply...
