Template instructions allow products to be more dynamic, allowing them to perform actions during key events like a checkout. There are three types of template instructions controlled by file types: data frame rules, layout rules, and python scripts.
The Data Frame Rules properties allow products to have their data frame settings, such as scale, extent, coordinate system, and rotation, updated based on a product's associated instance AOI(s).
When setting up data frame rules to be used in conjunction with the product library, it is important to note that regardless of the extent setting specified in the data frame rule, the AOIs associated with the product's instances will be used to determine the scale, extent, size, rotation, and coordinate system of the data frames.
It is also helpful to test the data frame rules on different products and have layers in the associated map document to help visualize the expected results.
