ArcGIS Pro currently allows symbol properties to vary by attribute for Color, Size, and Transparency, but not Line Style/Pattern.
Utility, telecom, pipeline, water, sewer, and transportation users frequently need to symbolize:
- One field controlling color
- A second field controlling line pattern (solid, dashed, dotted)
Example:
- Phase → Color
- Construction Type → Solid vs Dashed
Currently this requires duplicate layers, combined fields, or large numbers of symbol classes, which creates significant maintenance challenges for continuously updated datasets.
Please add "Line Style/Pattern" as a Vary Symbology by Attribute option alongside Color, Size, and Transparency.
