SIMPLERENDERER Element

Used to display features using one symbol.

SIMPLERENDERER

Used to display features using one symbol.

refscale optional xs:string

Reference scale to display the TRUETYPEMARKERSYMBOL or SIMPLEMARKERSYMBOL at the specified fontsize using a relative scale such as 1:24000. TRUETYPEMARKERSYMBOLs and SIMPLEMARKERSYMBOLs are scaled relative to the refscale as the map is zoomed in or out.

rotationfield optional xs:string

The field in the table that contains the angle of rotation for a TRUETYPEMARKERSYMBOL.

rotationtype optional Restriction of xs:string

Three methods of calculating angles are available: 1)"arithmetic", An angle of 0 is east, and angles are calculated counterclockwise from east. 2)"counterclockwise", An angle of 0 is north, and angles are calculated counterclockwise from north. 3)"geographic", An angle of 0 is north, and angles are calculated clockwise from north.

visible optional Restriction of xs:string

Sequence

COMPLEXLINESYMBOL

Used to symbolize line features. Provides additional symbology options beyond SIMPLELINESYMBOL.

COMPLEXPOLYGONSYMBOL

Used to symbolize polygon features. Provides additional symbology options beyond SIMPLEPOLYGONSYMBOL.

GROUPSYMBOL

Used to symbolize features with multiple symbols acting as a single symbol (e.g., a freeway line symbol consists of a group of 3 line symbols).

RASTERFILLSYMBOL

Symbolizes polygon features using the specified image as a fill symbol.

RASTERMARKERSYMBOL

Symbolizes point features using the specified raster image.

SIMPLELINESYMBOL

Used to symbolize line features.

SIMPLEMARKERSYMBOL

Used to symbolize point features using one of the predefined symbol types: circle, square, cross, triangle, star, X, or diamond.

SIMPLEPOLYGONSYMBOL

Used to symbolize polygon features.

TRUETYPEMARKERSYMBOL

Used to symbolize point features using TrueType symbols.

visible	Restriction of xs:string	optional	false

The visible attribute is used in an ArcPad map file (.apm) to override a layer's SIMPLERENDERER element in its ArcPad layer file (.apl). If the value of the visible attribute is "true" in an ArcPad map file (.apm), then the SIMPLELABELRENDERER element in the layer's ArcPad layer file (.apl) is ignored.

Layer Definition File

One symbol must be specified. Only one is allowed.
