With the September 2021 release of ArcGIS Online, we added a new capability to Map Viewer called Effects. Effects bring Photoshop-like capabilities to your layers in your web maps. ArcGIS Online makes it very easy to try out simple visual effects that make your maps stand out and get noticed. In this example, you’ll see how easy it is to apply a blur effect to soften county boundaries in the background, apply a light drop shadow to the arrows on this map, apply a bloom to the state borders to ensure bordering counties’ patterns are seen, and apply a blend that brings out small towns as well as urban areas within counties.
