GIFFormat

Resumen

The GIFFormat object represents a collection of Graphic Interchange Format (GIF) file properties that can be configured and used with the export method on the Layout, MapFrame, and MapView objects to create an output GIF file.

Debate

GIF files are a legacy raster format for use on the web. GIFs cannot contain more than 256 colors (8 bits per pixel), which, along with optional lossless RLE or LZW compression, makes them smaller than other file formats. GIF files can also define a transparent color. GIFs can be generated with an accompanying world file for use as georeferenced raster data.

The createExportFormat method can be used to create a GIFFormat object if the format parameter is set to GIF. The returned GIFFormat object contains all the properties associated with a generating a GIF file. These properties can be modified accordingly to produce different output results.

Propiedades

Nombre	Explicación	Tipo de datos
clipToElements (Lectura y escritura)	If set to `True`, include the areas of the page that have map or layout element content only, rather than exporting the entire page. This property only applies when exporting a `Layout` object. The default value is `False`.	Boolean
colorMode (Lectura y escritura)	A string constant that represents the number of bits to describe color in a pixel. The default value is `8-BIT_ADAPTIVE_PALETTE`. 1-BIT_MONOCHROME_THRESHOLD—2 possible colors, black and white. The areas which are white and black are determined by the `threshold` value. 8-BIT_ADAPTIVE_PALETTE—Uses 256 of the most commonly-used pixel colors in the image’s palette, thereby minimizing the number of pixels whose color may change during output. 8-BIT_GRAYSCALE—256 shades of gray. All colors are converted to grayscale.	String
filePath (Lectura y escritura)	A string that represents the system path and file name, including the extension, for the exported file.	String
geoReferenceMapFrame (Lectura y escritura)	The MapFrame used to control the coordinate system when the `worldFile` property is set to True. The default value is `None`.	MapFrame
height (Lectura y escritura)	The height, in pixels, of the map area to be exported. This property only applies when exporting a `MapView` object. The default value is `960`.	Double
resolution (Lectura y escritura)	The effective dpi of the output vector data. The default value is 96. Nota: When exporting a `MapView`, the dpi is calculated automatically using system dpi scaling and therefore this value will be ignored.	Integer
showSelectionSymbology (Lectura y escritura)	Show selected features in the map or map frame as selected in the output file. Setting this value to `False` does not affect selection within the view, only in the output file. The default value is `False`.	Boolean
threshold (Lectura y escritura)	Image intensities set above this value will appear white in the output file and all other values will appear black. This property is applied only when the `colorMode` property is set to `1-BIT_MONOCHROME_THRESHOLD`. The default value is `128`.	Boolean
width (Lectura y escritura)	The width, in pixels, of the map area to be exported. This property only applies when exporting a `MapView` object. The default value is `960`.	Double
worldFile (Lectura y escritura)	If set to `True` and a valid `georef_mapframe` is set, a world file will be generated based on the map frame's coordinate system. The default value is `False`.	Boolean

GIFFormat example

The following script exports a layout to GIF format using default property values.

p = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject('current')
lyt = p.listLayouts()[0]

gif = arcpy.mp.CreateExportFormat('GIF', r'C:\Temp\Output.gif')

lyt.export(gif)
