gvSIG-Desktop 1.9. User manual

by Victor Acevedo last modified 2011-04-19 16:42

There are various types of symbols: raster fill symbols, gradient fill symbols, simple line symbol, etc. The extension adapts the majority of the symbols generated by ArcIMS. Table 1 shows the ArcIMS symbols and indicates whether they are supported by gvSIG.

Label Description Supported
CALLOUTMARKERSYMBOL Balloon-type label NO
CHARTSYMBOL Pie chart symbol NO
GRADIENTFILLSYMBOL Fill in with gradient NO
RASTERFILLSYMBOL Fill with raster pattern YES
RASTERMARKERSYMBOL Point symbol using pictogram YES
RASTERSHIELDSYMBOL Customised point symbol for US roads NO
SIMPLELINESYMBOL Simple line YES
SIMPLEMARKERSYMBOL Point YES
SIMPLEPOLYGONSYMBOL Polygon YES
SHIELDSYMBOL Point symbol for US roads NO
TEXTMARKERSYMBOL Static text symbol NO
TEXTSYMBOL Static text symbol YES
TRUETYPEMARKERSYMBOL Symbol using TrueType font character NO

Table 1: ArcXML symbol definition labels

In general, the most common symbols have been successfully “transferred”. Some of the symbols cannot be obtained directly from gvSIG (at least in the current version), such as the raster fill symbol or they need to be “adjusted” such as the different types of lines. This means that a raster fill symbol is not a symbol that can be defined by the gvSIG user interface, but it can be defined by programming.
