[The Mad Mapper]

Hello Fellow Mappers!


I have a mostly carto type job in GIS. I have been at it for a little over a year. I am now at a point where I want to increase my efficiency.

One thing that I would like to get better at is managing my styles. I use the Style Manager but am still pretty inneficient at it. I find that I always seem to have too many of my own styles in there, and am having a hard time organizing them.

I was wodering if anybody had any suggestions on reading materials/online tutorials that would be helpful.

Thanks a million!

First thing what software are you using?

Style Manager is an ArcMap thing...

There's nothing much more to do with the Style Manager than putting them that, but you could always create new style files (.style) and copy in them only the one you use on different type of projet or different clients, then only load the one or two you'd need.

That helps, to a certain degree...
