Hiding a selected layer type (Defense Mapping)

When you are working with several layers in a map, you may need to hide some of them so you can focus on a specific group of data layers in the map. The Hide Selected Layer Type tool allows you to choose a layer type and hide all the layers of that type so you can see other features more clearly in the map. For example, to work with features in the map, the annotation layers could be hidden so the underlying features are not obscured.

Etapes :
  1. Start ArcMap.
  2. If necessary, load data in the map.
  3. On the main menu, click Customize > Toolbars > Production TOC Manager.
  4. Click the drop-down arrow on the Production TOC Manager toolbar and choose a layer group.
    • All Layers—Includes all layers currently in the table of contents, whether or not they are currently visible in the map
    • Point Layers—Only includes the point layers in the table of contents, whether or not they are currently visible in the map
    • Line Layers—Only includes the line layers in the table of contents, whether or not they are currently visible in the map
    • Polygon Layers—Only includes the polygon layers in the table of contents, whether or not they are currently visible in the map
    • Group Layers—Only includes the grouped layers in the table of contents, whether or not they are currently visible in the map
    • Visible Layers—Only includes layers in the table of contents that are currently visible in the map
    • Annotation Layers—Only includes annotation layers in the table of contents, whether or not they are currently visible in the map
  5. Click the Hide Selected Layer Type button Hide Selected Layer Type on the Production TOC Manager toolbar.

All the layers in the selected layer type are unchecked in the table of contents, and they are no longer visible in the map.
