Display renderers

Purpose
This sample demonstrates how to use the feature renderer objects to display symbology for a feature layer. The renderer objects correspond to the LayerProperties Symbology dialog box in ArcMap.
 
This sample uses the following renderers:
  • SimpleRenderer
  • UniqueValueRenderer
  • ClassBreaksRenderer
  • ProportionalSymbolRenderer
  • ChartRenderer
  • DotDensityRenderer
This sample also uses the following:
  • Symbols
  • Color ramps
  • Data statistics
  • Table histogram
  • Classify objects
The ArcObjects MapControl is used as the map canvas and the USA states shapefile is loaded into it at run time.

How to use

See How to use ArcGIS samples for help on running the sample. If the sample has associated data, you will find that the sample's zip file includes a "data" folder alongside the language folders. However, you will need to update the sample to point to the location of the data once you have extracted all the files.

  1. Run the sample application.
  2. Symbolize your data using the renderers provided.
