Symbology script

Question

Is there a script that can be used to automatically apply the symbology to a new layer from another layer in the same way as Import Symbology?

Thanks to all.

Also, if you run the tool once by hand, you can copy the Python syntax from the geoprocessing history of the tool.

You can take that code and modify it to be your own Python Script tool, see this tutorial:

Apply Symbology From Layer is a Data Management Tool in the System Tools.
It can be run for one Layer or Batch Processed to include multiple layers.

You can use the Apply Symbology From Layer tool via Python. The help topic has sample code.
