3.10.4.7 Applying Custom Map Symbols to a Map Layer

You can apply custom map symbols for styling your map layer.

However, note that if a point dataset is being styled by custom symbols, then it can no longer use any of the built-in symbols. Essentially, you cannot mix both custom and built-in symbols on a map layer in the map visualization.

Perform the following steps to style your map layer using custom map symbols.

The instructions assume that a map layer is displayed on the Active Project page and the custom map symbols are already added in Spatial Studio by the administrator user. See Uploading a Map Symbol for more information.
  1. Click Menu Icon against the map layer in the Layers tab of the Layers list.
  2. Select Settings in the context menu.
  3. Configure Style and select Symbol as the Render Style.
  4. Click the image button next to the Symbol drop-down list.
    The Symbol set drop-down appears.
  5. Select Custom under Custom symbols in the Symbol set drop-down list.
    The uploaded custom symbols list appears.
  6. Select the required custom symbol.
    The symbol gets applied to the map layer as shown in the following figure:
