■ Click New ➤ Map Book From Settings. ■ Select the settings file you saved. Where you are now You previewed and generated the map book, producing multiple tiles that each contain a portion of the original map. You used the layout tabs to view individual tiles, and the adjacent arrows (page 309) to move between tiles. To continue this tutorial, go to Lesson 4: Create an Inset (page 193) Lesson 4: Create an Inset You will create an inset (page 312) on one tile (page 315) in the map book. The inset is a new viewport that you set up to display a particular area and zoom level. Exercise 1: Draw a viewport for the inset You can create your own viewports, as well as customizing the ones that appear on the template (page 315) by default. In this exercise, you will draw a viewport on a map tile (page 315) to show a zoomed-in detail. NOTE This exercise uses the map you modified in the previous lesson (page 186). To create the viewport 1 Click the layout tab for the tile on which the inset (page 312) will appear. In this example, the inset appears on B-25. 2 At the Command prompt, type vports. The Command prompt appears as soon as you begin typing anywhere within the map window. 3 On the New Viewports tab of the Viewports dialog box, in the Standard Viewports list, select Single and click OK. 4 Place your cursor over the blank area next to the main viewport. 5 Drag to draw the viewport on the layout, and click when it is the size you want.
