Adjust size automatically - Point Symbol - in Map Viewer with Unique Symbols - different point sizes

AndreaB_ — Mon, 07 Oct 2024 19:37:46 GMT

Hi all,

I have my point style in Map Viewer set to Types (Unique symbols) and different colors for each point. I want 2 of the points to be larger in size than the other 3. But I also want them to "Adjust size automatically" (because that's a great feature!). It seems this isn't possible? If I click "Adjust size automatically" then all of the points change back to the same size.

This current isn't possible. The "adjust size automatically" will have the sizeinfo outside of each class in the types style and is stored in the visual variables vs. when its disabled contains an independent size for each symbol. This will have a size + scale stored for multiple levels.

Adjust Size uses this to drive the logic

When disabled it would use the size inside the class

Ok, thank you for the explanation. That helps! Do you think it's worth putting in an Idea post? Or do you think it wouldn't be rewritten?

No harm in putting one in. This one is a little complex with how it works and where things are stored but doesn't mean new patterns cannot come out.
