Hi all
I want to fix the size of the points through Symbols.
The default format is that the Symbol size changes with the map scale.
Can it be fixed ??
Thank you

You can turn off the scale based option. There’s also other links about working with symbols at the end of the documentation.

You might also want to look into the Reference Scale options.  Right-click the map, itself, at the top of your Contents pane, and click 'Properties'.

I forget the exact location off the top of my head, but I believe it might be under "Extent Options" in the General setttings.

 

Zoom your map to what looks reasonable to you, note what that zoom level is, and put that zoom level in the reference scale box mentioned above.  Then, no matter how much you zoom in or out, all of your symbols will stay the same size, relative to that zoom.

Reference scale is set in Map properties, not by layer.
