Object Model

Syntax

C#
Visual Basic (Declaration)

public class CIMCharacterMarker : CIMMarker, System.ComponentModel.INotifyPropertyChanged, System.Xml.Serialization.IXmlSerializable

Public Class CIMCharacterMarker 
   Inherits CIMMarker
   Implements System.ComponentModel.INotifyPropertyChanged, System.Xml.Serialization.IXmlSerializable

Remarks

The shape of a marker is defined by a glyph in a font. The marker is drawn using the specified size and color. Each marker has a defined frame around the glyph that is considered when the size is applied. As a result, character markers of the same size may appear different sizes if the glyphs frames are different sizes.

Example

Modify a point symbol created from a character marker

//create marker from the Font, char index,size,color
var cimMarker = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructMarker(125, "Wingdings 3", "Regular", 6, ColorFactory.Instance.BlueRGB) as CIMCharacterMarker;
  var polygonMarker = cimMarker.Symbol;
  //modifying the polygon's outline and fill
  //This is the outline
  polygonMarker.SymbolLayers[0] = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructStroke(ColorFactory.Instance.GreenRGB, 2, SimpleLineStyle.Solid);
  //This is the fill
  polygonMarker.SymbolLayers[1] = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructSolidFill(ColorFactory.Instance.BlueRGB);
  //create a symbol from the marker 
  //Note this overload of ConstructPointSymbol does not need to be run within QueuedTask.Run.
  var pointSymbol = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructPointSymbol(cimMarker);
