Shape
The Shape property settings determine the shape or set of shapes of markers in a marker layer. These shapes can be fixed (the same for all markers), or they can vary depending on the value of a specified column. The marker shapes, along with their colors, sizes, and drawing order, can convey meaning to the users viewing the map.
Property setting | Default value | Description |
---|---|---|
Fixed shape | Selected; displays a filled circle. | Specifies that all markers have the same shape. By default, the shape is a filled circle. Change the shape by clicking the drop-down arrow and selecting another shape. |
Shape by column values | Cleared, default of None. | Specifies that the shape is determined by the column value selected from the drop-down. This option is useful if the column does not have many values and shapes can be easily distinguished or do not need to be repeated. |
