Add graphics with renderer

A renderer allows you to change the style of all graphics in a graphics overlay by referencing a single symbol style.

Image of adding graphics with renderer

Use case

A renderer allows you to change the style of all graphics in an overlay by only changing one copy of the symbol. For example, a user may wish to display a number of graphics on a map of parkland which represent trees, all sharing a common symbol. A renderer will only effect graphics that do not specify their own symbol style.

How to use the sample

Run the sample and view graphics for points, lines, and polygons, which are stylized using renderers.

How it works

  1. Create a GraphicsOverlay and add it to the MapView.
  2. Create a Graphic, specifying only a Geometry.
  3. Create a single Symbol such as a SimpleMarkerSymbol.
  4. Create a renderer with the Symbol such as new SimpleRenderer(symbol).
  5. Set the renderer on the GraphicsOverlay with graphicsOverlay.Renderer = renderer.

Relevant API

  • Geometry
  • Graphic
  • GraphicsOverlay
  • SimpleFillSymbol
  • SimpleLineSymbol
  • SimpleMarkerSymbol
  • SimpleRenderer

Additional information

To set unique symbols across a number of graphics (e.g. showing graphics of individual landmarks) see "Add graphics with symbols" sample.
