Symbology Fields

Hi All,

I need some help on symbology if at all possible. My data has two key fields, management and year. I have taken a screenshot of the current data symbology and attached it. Where the management type is "1" I need to symbolise against 2 (both) fields. Where the management type is anything other than "1" I only need to identify against 1 field, the management type field.

I'm hoping the attached file will explain the issue more thoroughly. Essentially where its management type 1 I need it to symobolise differently for each 5 year period and this is where the felling year field is utilised. Where the management type is anything other than 1 I just need it to symbolise based on the management type and the felling year can be ignored.

Can this be done?

Thanks

Dan

To do this somewhat statically, you could add a Symbol field, select your records where Management = 1 and concatenate Management + Year into that field. Then switch the selection (where Management not equal to 1) and populate the Symbol field with just Management.

You could achieve this without adding a new field to the data, and have it work dynamically by using Arcade.
