Generating multiple maps in a project

ECMap includes a feature that allows you to generate all the maps in a specific project or all the maps in all projects, rather than generating maps one at a time. The ability to generate multiple maps simultaneously can save you a great deal of time since you can normally generate only one map at a time from the Build menu on the main ECMap window. This capability is particularly useful when you are upgrading maps from one version of the software to another.

StepsGenerating multiple maps in a project

  1. Choose Options>Generate Maps>All Projects from the Map window menu.

    The Generate Map window displays.

  2. Choose All Projects from the Generate Maps submenu.

    The Generate Map window displays. No project name appears on the window, but an Options section appears.

  3. Select Run to generate the maps.

Select View Log and the Generate Log window displays where you can see the results of the map run.

See Chapter 16, “Generating Maps,” for more information about generating maps.
