Different Legend symbols

MikeWissner — Thu, 17 May 2012 18:20:40 GMT

Greetings All,

Does anyone know how to create a single legend with different style patches for different layers? For example, I'd like to have a single legend that uses the "Water Body" patch for a water layer and the "Urbanized Area" patch for a land use layer.

thanks,
m

In case you are not aware, you can also create your own custom patches:

You can use a legend wizard..

By using legend tool, you can make many combination style.
