Symbol property
Returns or sets the Pushpin symbol for a Pushpin or Pushpin set; returns the symbol for a data range in a Pushpin or Multiple Symbol map. The table below shows the MapPoint standard symbols and their corresponding integers (0–255). The possible range for custom symbols is 256–32,766. Read-only Integer for data ranges. Read/write Integer for Pushpins and data sets.
Note The table below contains many graphics and may take some time to load.
Applies to
Methods: DisplayDataMap
Objects: DataRange, DataSet, Pushpin
Syntax
object.Symbol
Parameters
Part | Description |
---|---|
object | Required. An expression that returns a DataRange, DataSet, or Pushpin object. |
Remarks
The ToolTip for these standard symbols is the Name property of the Symbol object.
The Symbol property is the same as the ID property for the Symbol object.
The Symbol property is invalid—and returns an invalid value—for DataSet objects with a DataMapType property of geoDataMapTypeTerritory or a HowCreated property of geoDataSetDemographic.
Example
Sub ChangePushpinSymbol()
Dim objApp As New MapPoint.Application
Dim objDataSet As MapPoint.DataSet
Set objDataSet = objApp.OpenMap(objApp.Path & "\Samples\Clients.ptm").DataSets("Clients")
objApp.Visible = True
objApp.UserControl = True
'Change the symbol of the current data set
objDataSet.Symbol = 224
End Sub
Example for data ranges
Sub GetInfoAboutDataMap()
Dim objApp As New mappoint.Application
Dim objDataMap As mappoint.DataMap
Dim objDataSet As mappoint.DataSet
Dim lngSymbolID As Long
'Set up app and objects to use
objApp.Visible = True
objApp.UserControl = True
'Let user create a data map
Set objDataMap = objApp.ActiveMap.DataSets.ShowDataMappingWizard()
If objDataMap.Parent.DataMapType <> geoDataMapTypeMultipleSymbol _
And objDataMap.Parent.DataMapType <> geoDataMapTypePushpin Then
MsgBox "The data map must be a Symbol map " & _
"(Pushpin or Multiple Symbol)."
Exit Sub
End If
'Get information about the data map
lngSymbolID = objDataMap.DataRanges(1).Symbol
MsgBox "First symbol used in the data map: " & _
objApp.ActiveMap.Symbols.ItemByID(lngSymbolID).Name
End Sub
