Just simply wishing to increase the size of data points on my map. For example I have wildlife sightings mapped across a landscape and wish to enlarge the points for visual clarity. I cant seem to see a way to do this. Thank you

Assuming you are referring to the literal point that is drawn on the map. You can click on the point as shown in your contents menu (not the point on the map). Make sure to click on the actual icon and not just near the icon or on the line containing the feature class name. That will open the Symbology pane. From the symbology pane you can adjust the size under "Appearance".

Thankyou FlightDeck, yes that is exactly what I wanted to do, much appreciated.

Now Im wondering is there a way to enlarge all points under a category at once. For example I have over 20 observations of different plant species shown as points, using above method it seems I have to enlarge each point one at a time? can I select all?

Appreciate the response, obviously this is basic stuff but I really struggle with this software so thanks for the tips - Thank you

Do you have the display settings set to adhere to a reference scale?
