Overview

SIMPLERENDERER
Used to display features using one symbol.
refscale optional xs:string
Reference scale to display the TRUETYPEMARKERSYMBOL or SIMPLEMARKERSYMBOL at the specified fontsize using a relative scale such as 1:24000. TRUETYPEMARKERSYMBOLs and SIMPLEMARKERSYMBOLs are scaled relative to the refscale as the map is zoomed in or out.
rotationfield optional xs:string
The field in the table that contains the angle of rotation for a TRUETYPEMARKERSYMBOL.
rotationtype optional Restriction of xs:string
Three methods of calculating angles are available: 1)"arithmetic", An angle of 0 is east, and angles are calculated counterclockwise from east. 2)"counterclockwise", An angle of 0 is north, and angles are calculated counterclockwise from north. 3)"geographic", An angle of 0 is north, and angles are calculated clockwise from north.
visible optional Restriction of xs:string
In an ArcPad map file (.apm), specifies whether the SIMPLERENDERER element overrides the SIMPLERENDERER element in the layer's ArcPad layer file (.apl).
Sequence
COMPLEXLINESYMBOL
Used to symbolize line features. Provides additional symbology options beyond SIMPLELINESYMBOL.
COMPLEXPOLYGONSYMBOL
Used to symbolize polygon features. Provides additional symbology options beyond SIMPLEPOLYGONSYMBOL.
GROUPSYMBOL
Used to symbolize features with multiple symbols acting as a single symbol (e.g., a freeway line symbol consists of a group of 3 line symbols).
RASTERFILLSYMBOL
Symbolizes polygon features using the specified image as a fill symbol.
RASTERMARKERSYMBOL
Symbolizes point features using the specified raster image.
SIMPLELINESYMBOL
Used to symbolize line features.
SIMPLEMARKERSYMBOL
Used to symbolize point features using one of the predefined symbol types: circle, square, cross, triangle, star, X, or diamond.
SIMPLEPOLYGONSYMBOL
Used to symbolize polygon features.
TRUETYPEMARKERSYMBOL
Used to symbolize point features using TrueType symbols.

visibleRestriction of xs:stringoptionalfalse In an ArcPad map file (.apm), specifies whether the SIMPLERENDERER element overrides the SIMPLERENDERER element in the layer's ArcPad layer file (.apl).

Remarks

  • The visible attribute is used in an ArcPad map file (.apm) to override a layer's SIMPLERENDERER element in its ArcPad layer file (.apl). If the value of the visible attribute is "true" in an ArcPad map file (.apm), then the SIMPLELABELRENDERER element in the layer's ArcPad layer file (.apl) is ignored.
