Defining listing options with the Atlas command

Using the Atlas command, you can obtain a list of the series and map sheets within a map document.

Listing the map series

You can find out what series are contained in a single map document using the Atlas command. When series have been created using MPS-Atlas, multiple series can be created and stored within a single map document.

The syntax for listing the map series is as follows:

Syntax for listing map series in a document

Atlas /list:mapseries /mxd:<map document path>

Pasos:

1. Run the command prompt by doing the following:
   1. Click the Start button, then click Run.
   2. Type cmd in the Open text box.
2. Change the prompt to the location where the Atlas command is located:

   cd C:\Program Files\ESRIProductionMapping\Desktop10.0\Bin

3. Type Atlas /list:mapseries /mxd:"map document path", where the map document path is the local path to the map document that contains the series you want to list.

   For example:

   Atlas /list:mapseries /mxd:"C:\Documents and Settings\Test\Desktop\Doc70.mxd"

4. Press ENTER.

Listing map sheets

You can list the map sheets contained in a single map document using the Atlas command. Multiple map sheets can be contained in a single map document if you choose to store the series in a single map document using MPS-Atlas.

The syntax for listing the map sheets is as follows:

Syntax for listing map sheets in a single map document

Atlas /list:mapsheets /mxd:<map document path>

Pasos:

1. Run the command prompt by doing the following:
   1. Click the Start button, then click Run.
   2. Type cmd in the Open text box.
2. Change the prompt to the location where the Atlas command is located:

   cd C:\Program Files\ESRIProductionMapping\Desktop10.0\Bin

3. Type Atlas /list:mapsheets /mxd:"map document name and path", where the map document path is the local path to the map document that contains the map sheets you want to list.

   For example:

   Atlas /list:mapsheets /mxd:"C:\Documents and Settings\Test\Desktop\Doc70.mxd"

4. Press ENTER.

Listing all map series and map sheets

You can obtain a list of all the map series and the map sheets within them when they are contained in a single map document. With MPS-Atlas, it is possible to create multiple map series within the same map document, so there can be several series that contain map sheets in one document.

The syntax for listing the map series and map sheets is as follows:

Syntax for listing the map series and map sheets in a single map document

Atlas /list:all /mxd:<map document path>

Pasos:

1. Type Atlas /list:all /mxd:"map document name and path", where the map document path is the local path to the map document that contains the series and map sheets you want to list.

   For example:

   Atlas /list:all /mxd:"C:\Documents and Settings\Test\Desktop\Doc70.mxd"

2. Press ENTER.
   Nota:

   Leaving the option blank returns a list of all map series and map sheets, the same result as using the all option, as in the following example:

   Atlas /list: /mxd:"C:\Documents and Settings\Test\Desktop\Doc70.mxd"

   In addition, when leaving the option blank to return all map series and map sheets, the colon after /list is optional.
