Symbol
Implements the anchor of a symbol layer, including placement mode and x, y, z anchor values. SymbolAnchor contains the properties necessary to define the anchor for a symbol layer. These anchor properties define both the anchor values (x, y, z) and the placement mode. This object can be passed to MarkerSymbolLayer objects to control marker anchor properties.

Constructors
Creates a symbol anchor and sets up the properties. The function sets up the SymbolAnchor with the provided arguments.
Properties
The anchor placement mode of the symbol anchor object. The SymbolAnchorPlacementMode determines how Runtime interprets the SymbolAnchor anchor values. See the SymbolAnchorPlacementMode documentation for a description of the effects of each mode. The default mode is 'relative.'
The x-component of the symbol anchor object. The x-component of the SymbolAnchor can be any real number. The units of the value depend on the anchor placement mode of the SymbolAnchor. The default value is 0, regardless of placement mode. A positive x-component will adjust the anchor point of the symbol in the positive-x direction. This has the visual effect of pushing the marker in the negative-x direction, since the anchor remains on the location of the marker.
The y-component of the symbol anchor object. The y-component of the SymbolAnchor can be any real number. The units of the value depend on the anchor placement mode of the SymbolAnchor. The default value is 0, regardless of placement mode. A positive y-component will adjust the anchor point of the symbol in the positive-y direction. This has the visual effect of pushing the marker in the negative-y direction, since the anchor remains on the location of the marker.
