Use a single symbol

When you add your SAP Dashboards data to a map, Esri Maps for SAP BusinessObjects creates a layer and displays the data using a default style (symbol). These layers, and certain layers added from ArcGIS, can be styled using different icons or shapes, colors, and grouping. One way to style a layer is using a single symbol to represent all of the features in the layer.

For more information on styling layers, see Feature display and style.

Click the Show map contents icon to display the Contents pane.
On the Contents pane, click the arrow to the right of the layer whose style you want to configure.
Click Style.
Click Simple.
Do one of the following depending on the type of layer you are styling:
- For a point layer, decide whether you want to use an icon or a shape. To style your data with an icon, select the icon you want to use. To see additional icons, click the drop-down arrow, click a desired category, and select the icon you want. To style your data with a shape, click the drop-down arrow and select Shapes. Select the shape and color you want.
- For a polygon (area) layer, select a color for the features in the layer.
- For a line layer, select a line type and color. Move the Thickness slider as desired to set the thickness of the lines.
The map automatically updates to reflect the style changes you made.
For point layers, use the Size slider to specify the desired size for the icon or shape.
The map automatically updates to reflect the style options you specified.
Click OK.
