Example
How to construct a point symbol from a marker
{
CIMMarker marker = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructMarker(ColorFactory.Instance.GreenRGB, 8.0, SimpleMarkerStyle.Pushpin);
CIMPointSymbol pointSymbolFromMarker = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructPointSymbol(marker);
}
How to construct a point symbol from a file on disk
{
//The following file formats can be used to create the marker: DAE, 3DS, FLT, EMF, JPG, PNG, BMP, GIF
//Note: Run within QueuedTask.Run
CIMMarker markerFromFile = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructMarkerFromFile(@"C:\Temp\fileName.dae");
CIMPointSymbol pointSymbolFromFile = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructPointSymbol(markerFromFile);
}
How to construct a point symbol from a in memory graphic
{
//Create a stream for the image
//At 3.0 you need https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Windows.Compatibility
//System.Drawing
System.Drawing.Image newImage = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(@"C:\PathToImage\Image.png");
var stream = new System.IO.MemoryStream();
newImage.Save(stream, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png);
stream.Position = 0;
//Create marker using the stream
CIMMarker markerFromStream = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructMarkerFromStream(stream);
//Create the point symbol from the marker
CIMPointSymbol pointSymbolFromStream = SymbolFactory.Instance.ConstructPointSymbol(markerFromStream);
