Example: Create Atlas Route Sets

Goal: You want to combine two or more route layers to create a single set of layers. You will combine the route layers Samuel's Circuit and Saul Searches for His Donkeys into a single route set.

Note Atlas sets are created by grouping multiple layers. This procedure is the same for Sites, Regions, Routes, and User Layers.

Create a User Set by doing the following:

1. Open a 2D Atlas tab. An Atlas tab can be opened via the Library, the File menu, or the Workspace toolbar.
2. Select Define Route Sets from the User Layers pop-up menu. The Define Route Sets dialog box appears.
3. Click New at the top of the Define Route Sets dialog box. [New set] appears in the Name of set field.
4. Double-click Samuel's Circuit in the Route Layers area of the Define Route Sets dialog box. Samuel's Circuit is displayed in the Layers selected box.
5. Double-click Saul Searches for His Donkeys in the Route Layers area of the Define Route Sets dialog box. Saul Searches for His Donkeys is displayed in the Layers selected box.
6. Give your new route set a unique name in the Name of Setfield by typing Samuel & Saul.
7. Click OK. The Samuel & Saul route set is created and displayed in the 2D Atlas tab.

The new route layer can now be displayed by selecting Samuel & Saul from the Routes pop-up menu.
