Hi,

I've been looking for python code that would be able to assign a PNG image as the logo/symbol for an ArcGIS Pro feature class; but I have been unable to find any examples of this being done. Is this possible using python/arcpy? If so, could someone please share the documentation/code with me?

I was looking for an arcpy function related to Symbology, but if that doesn't exist then I may just need to symbolize my feature classes by hand and then save them as a layer file. That way I could use my apply symbology from layer script for future projects where I need to use the picture marker symbols.

You have to poke around... some things have properties and methods that allow for a degree of customization or application
