New Legend Patch

Question

Is there a tool in ArcGIS Pro that you can use to create a new legend symbol patch like there is in ArcMap. I have been trying to overwrite the default legend symbol patches with the shape of my features. In ArcMap, the is this "New Legend Patch Shape" tool. Is there a similar tool in ArcGIS Pro?

Hi Jim,

Currently there is no way in ArcGIS Pro to apply a custom shape to a legend patch. There is an idea on the Ideas site - https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/create-or-import-new-legend-patch-shape/idi-p/1007898 - to which you may want to add your own input. The ArcGIS Pro development team will be monitoring this idea for consideration in a future release.

Thanks for the input,

Tom

Thank you for the response. I have used these shapes before. But I was wondering if there was a way to create a custom shape based on the features boundary.
