ITextSymbolEditor Interface

Provides access to members that control a dialog for editing Text Symbols.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Desktop.

Description

The TextSymbolEditor provides an ideal way to allow a user to edit all the properties of a specific, preexisting TextSymbol.

The EditTextSymbol method takes an ITextSymbol parameter, which must be an existing TextSymbol object. This object is passed by reference and will be directly changed depending on the selections made in the dialog box. The EditTextSymbol method call will open the TextSymbolEditor dialog box. The Title property sets the title of the dialog box displayed, and the ShowUnits property determines if the Units option is shown to the user, allowing them to set size properties in units other than points.
