Overview

The Symbol Properties dialog box is used to define the symbology for shapefile, AXF, and graphics layers. For shapefile and AXF layers, you can access the Symbol Properties dialog box by double-tapping a symbol on the Symbology tab of the Layer Properties dialog box. For graphics layers, you can access the Symbol Properties dialog box by tapping the Feature Symbol button on the Text/Style Feature Properties dialog box.

The Symbol Properties dialog box always has Styles and Scale tabs, as well as a Point Style tab for point features, a Line Style tab for line features, and a Polygon Style tab for polygon features.
