All new Layout Designer with active layout
Prepare professional quality output more quickly and easily than ever before with the new Layout Designer.
- Quickly and professionally lay out the elements of your page with the graticule and guidelines.
- Easily add logos, graphics and images of any type with the new image control.
- Interact directly with your map and browser windows. We call this an “active layout”. You no longer have to switch between the map and the layout to change layers, modify the labels or pan/zoom the map.
