I want to create a map with multiple layers that when one layer is turned on, all others are turned off. Is this possible?

I'm not sure if this is a possibility with ArcGIS Online. I would like a map that  allows only one layer to be selected at a time. When you select a layer, the other layers would be automatically turned off. Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks. I was hoping to find a way to do this creating a map though, not a scene. That link gives instructions for arranging group layers in a scene. Do you happen to know if it would be possible with a ArcGIS Online map?

Did you have a look through the help?  It suggests the same applies

Make your first scene—ArcGIS Online Help | ArcGIS then the group layers section

I've read through it, but I don't see "Create Group at the bottom of the layers in Contents" in the map viewer like it's shown in the scene viewer.

there currently isn't a way in the map viewer to group layers together like the Scene Viewer. The only way to leverage group layers in the map viewer today would be to use a dynamic map service with group layers that were authored in ArcMap or Pro and then published to an ArcGIS Server.

Sorry saw I said scene layers in my previous post. Any supported layers in the scene viewer can be grouped together not just scene layer. In the map viewer however there is no option to put layers in groups.

**Updated my previous post to say Scene Viewer.
