Class SimpleMarkerSymbol

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    JsonSerializable
    public final class SimpleMarkerSymbol
extends MarkerSymbol
    Defines a SimpleMarkerSymbol which is a MarkerSymbol based on simple shapes.

    SimpleMarkerSymbols symbolize Graphics and Features that have a Point or Multipoint geometry using simple predefined markers such as a circle. A LineSymbol can be used in combination with a SimpleMarkerSymbol to add an outline. The outline of the SimpleMarkerSymbol can be set once it has been created, but this property is optional.

    Example of creating a SimpleMarkerSymbol: 

     // create points for the line
 Point point = new Point(-1.1579397849033352E7, 5618494.623878779);

 // creates a red circle simple marker symbol
 SimpleMarkerSymbol markerSymbol = new SimpleMarkerSymbol(SimpleMarkerSymbol.Style.CIRCLE, 0xffff0000, 10);

 // add the point with a symbol to graphics overlay and add overlay to map view
 GraphicsOverlay graphicsOverlay = new GraphicsOverlay();
 mapView.getGraphicsOverlays().add(graphicsOverlay);
 graphicsOverlay.getGraphics().add(new Graphic(point, markerSymbol));
    A SimpleMarkerSymbol can be displayed using a Graphic and setting it to a GraphicsOverlay or setting the symbol as a Renderer. 
     GraphicsOverlay.getGraphics().add(new Graphic(Geometry, SimpleMarkerSymbol));
    OR 
     GraphicsOverlay.setRenderer(new SimpleRenderer(SimpleMarkerSymbol));

        public SimpleMarkerSymbol​(SimpleMarkerSymbol.Style style,
                          int color,
                          float size)
        Creates a new SimpleMarkerSymbol with the given properties:
        • Color, interior color of the Symbol.
        • Size, height and width of the area to place the Symbol in.
        • Style, the shape that makes up the the Symbol.

        Parameters:
        style - the marker style for this Symbol, not null
        color - an integer representing the interior color as 0xAARRGGBB
