awali Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Hi,I'm from Indonesia. In my country, we usually use BT instead of E, BB for W, LU for N and LS for S on direction grid label. That is annoying cause every time i create a map, i have to convert graticule to graphic so i can edit those labels. Is there a way to customize direction grid label without convert it to graphics? so it is still a dynamic grid. I'm using ArcGIS Desktop 10. can anyone help...

Lurker Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 yes, after you make default grid, open the grid properties, located on data frame>properties>grid>properties under the label tab, there is an format option, check the drop down menu, you will see "corner label" option choose it, and under additional properties on principal digit, you can edit Easting and Northing suffix regards, MODERATOR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awali Posted April 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Got it.thanks But corner format only show on measure grid.not on graticule grid. When I change coordinate system on measure grid to geographic wgs1984,it show 114 BT not 114 00' 00" BT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awali Posted April 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Uh,that's right... Maybe I'll just clear the grid label and put text "BT" and "LU" on map corner... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
