Is there a way to pause the map update (using code) that I can incorporate in my script?
The best option I have found so far is to use arcgisscripting.
Using before the intermediate creations:
gp = arcgisscripting.create()
gp.AddOutputsToMap = False
Then before the final featureclass:
gp.AddOutputsToMap = True
Does the job, shame to have to resort to the old library
If you are in ArcMap and hit the pause button in the lower left corner, can you still run the tool?
... or ...
have you tried to change the environment setting?
arcpy.env.addOutputsToMap
