The are two modes to edit the appearance of grid lines: Custom and Graphic Style. Grid line, line label, and cell reference options will differ depending on the grid or graticule chosen.Ĭlick the grid line and grid border style links to open the Edit Appearance dialog box.
When a grid or graticule is added or chosen, options will appear to the right of the list. An option to load grid settings from an existing configuration file is available. Three types of grids are available: an index grid, a graticule, and a measured grid (if the coordinate system is not geodetic). Multiple grids can be created and edited in one collection. In the Grids & Graticules dialog box, the left hand panel lists the grid collection (grids and graticules created for a single object). To edit an existing grid, select it and click the Grids and Graticules button on the MAPublisher Toolbar.
Measured Grids cannot be generated for geodetic coordinate systems.Ĭlick the Grids & Graticules button on the MAPublisher Toolbar or from the main menu Object > MAPublisher > Grids & Graticules. Graticules and Index Grids can be generated for any coordinate system. The MAP View must have a coordinate system assigned in order to plot a grid. Alternatively, use the Custom mode to choose the style options directly in the dialog box. Custom graphic styles should be created before (Window > Graphic Styles) before using Grids & Graticules.

A new legend layer will be created automatically if one is not present in the document. Grids and graticules must be created on a MAP Legend layer.
