I try to export a bunch of layers with the arcpy.mapping.ListLayoutElements function. Each layer should be exported as a single .jpg-map and each with a legend. Because not all layers have the same number of classes the legends have different sizes. To approach this issue, i wanted to use the following piece of code:
Here I was obviously inspired by the 2nd legend example on the official help page: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/...00000041000000
But i get the followong error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "H:\Desktop\Masterarbeit\Python scripts\map_production_test 6.py", line 98, in <module>
while legend.isOverflowing == True:
AttributeError: 'LegendElement' object has no attribute 'isOverflowing'
>>>
Does anyone see, what I do wrong? I use ArcGIS 10.1... (even if it seems i've got an older version)...
To better convey to the relationship i post here my whole code. But tob e honest, i dont think that is necessary (and i has still several constructions sites..)... Even the print messages or some comments are sometimes in german: Sorry for that...
Code:
#LEGENDSTUFF:
print "legende generieren"
legend=arcpy.mapping.ListLayoutElements(mxd,"LEGEND_ELEMENT","Legend")[0]
legend.autoAdd = True
while legend.isOverflowing == True:
legend.elementHeight = legend.elementHeight +0.1But i get the followong error message:
