Scale-based symbol sizing

MaureenKerr

I have a Pro Project with a layer that has 600 individual points displayed, I would like to be able to use the Scale-based symbol sizing option to allow these points to get bigger as I zoom in but I can only see this option available on an individual symbol level, it does not give me the option to do this in Format all Symbols. Is there something I am missing or has anyone found a work around that means I don't have to edit 600 individual symbols?

Please provide some syntax on how to enable disable this option using ArcPy. Doing this one symbol at the time is rather tedious.

Hi Lori

Sorry I'm only seeing this now. To be honest I was never able to find a solution in Pro. I was lucky as I had to share the map as a webmap and that functionality is available in AGOL.

Sorry I can't be of more help

I also meant to include 2 screenshots. I was hoping to enable scale-based symbol sizing by selecting Format all symbols form the symbology tab:

But enable scale-based sizing is not an option. Is there a reason why that functionality is not available for all symbols? Thanks.

Hi - I wanted to follow up on this topic. I typically have 500+ points (Grocers.lyrx) that I map on a national level and as I zoom in on the map I would like points to get larger. Has there been any update on setting sle-based symbol sizing on a layer (Grocers.lyrx) versus each individual point (i.e. Giant, Stop&Shop, etc.)? Due to the sheer number of points in my file, I have not taken the time to set up the scale-based sizing for each point.

I came across this article about using Python but I am not familiar enough with Python to attempt this solution: Is it possible to work with ArcGIS Pro scale-based symbol classes in code?

Any help would be much appreciated. I am using ArcGIS Pro 3.3.2.

Hi Ramon, scale-based symbol sizing is supported by the ArcGIS Pro app for symbols in map layers. It's not a property of the data, so I don't think it matters how the data is packaged. But if you're consuming the data in other apps, it won't work unless those apps also support scale-based sizing.

@TimOrmsby , Are scale-based sizing supported in MMPK files? I am hoping to use it on my point symbols that are also using custom rotations (from Arcade expression). Thank you.

oh, I see... would setting a reference scale for the map work for you? Map reference scales You can do that on a per-layer basis within the map.

Hi Tim

Sorry I wasn’t clear I meant that one layer is set to unique values and there are 600 unique values. I can see that setting if I go into an individual value but I don’t see it if I try to set it for the layer as a whole.

Hi Maureen, you can apply scale-based sizing to all the symbols in a layer. The option is on the Symbology pane, under Format Point Symbol, on the Properties tab. Described in the help topic Scale-based symbol sizing
