Maps

You can use the Map palette item to create and size maps in a map set.

As you add maps to the Design canvas, the items are displayed in the Outline view. For details about adding and sizing maps, see Adding maps. You must include at least one map in each map set for the BMS map to properly compile.

You can also change the order of the palette by using the Customize window.
