Interface ICharacterMarker3DSymbol

All Superinterfaces:

IMarkerSymbol, Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

CharacterMarker3DSymbol

public interface ICharacterMarker3DSymbol
extends IMarkerSymbol, Serializable

Provides access to members that control the 3D marker symbol.

Description

ICharacterMarker3DSymbol can be used to create a 3D marker symbol that uses the TrueType fonts or OpenType fonts. You can set/get the Font and CharacterIndex properties to control the font and glyph used. The VerticalOrientation property allows you to set/get the vertical orientation of the 3D character marker symbol.

Use the IMarker3DPlacement interface to set additional properties for ICharacterMarker3DSymbol.
