Doubts about Symbols in ArcGIS Qt Runtime

Bhargav_KumarK

When I am working with MIL2525C Symbology in ArcGIS Runtime I encountered with esriMultiPartCIMSymbol, CIMPointSymbol, CIMPolygonSymbol, CIMTextLayer. I found out these are useful like we can create a single graphic display them along with name associated with it. For example if we use existing symbols present in ArcGIS Qt API, if we draw a Polygon we can put only one symbol either for drawing or displaying text both we  cannot put at a time. This might be possible with this esriMultiPartCIMSymbol concept, but I am not finding any documention for the above mentioned symbols to use in my ArcGIS Qt Application such that with single graphic object I can display text and drawing.

Thanks Bhargav.

Bhargav-

Unfortunately, there isn't a way to create the types you mention with the API; you can just get them back from the military symbols. We are looking into some new designs for Quartz, but they will likely not make it in for final. Ultimately, a composite symbol that would allow you to take two different symbols and put them together into one symbol would be ideal. You could then define something like a marker symbol and a text symbol with an x and y offset, then put those together into one composite symbol to apply to a graphic. We are also looking to add labelling for graphics at Quartz, so you could label your graphic with whatever information you wanted.

Thanks,

Luke
