Geometric effects and marker placement styles
Marker placement styles determine how representation markers are placed relative to input geometry.
Geometric effects allow you to dynamically alter the geometry of features as they are drawn on your map without affecting their underlying shape or spatial relationships.
Marker placement styles
Input geometry | Marker placement style | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
Point | Rotation on Point | Allows the marker to have a specified rotation (in addition to the marker’s angle) based on either degrees or radians using a specified direction (geographic or arithmetic and clockwise or counterclockwise). The marker is on or in relation to a point based on x-offset and y-offset. |  |
Geometric effects
Input geometry | Output geometry | Geometric effect | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Line | Line | Line extension | Creates a dynamic line that is extended from either the beginning or the end of the line feature at a specified deflection angle and length |  |
Line | Line | Offset tangent | Creates a dynamic line that is offset from either the beginning or the end of the line feature at a specified distance |  |
Line | Line | Suppress outline | Creates a dynamic line that hides sections of line features between two sets of (representation) control points |  |
