Modifying Symbology in Quickmap

Modifying the symbology of the map enables you to configure Quickmap to look and feel how you want it to. This section explains how symbology is implemented using Quickmap, and how you can modify it to meet your purposes.

Themes

Themes have been created for different uses.

Note: You must be in a Theme under “My Themes” to modify symbology.

Opening the Symbology Editor

To use the Symbology Editor, press F9, or select Tools → Symbology → Edit from the main menu.

Symbology Editor

Using the Symbology Editor

The Editor displays the Graphics Parameter (GP) number for any particular feature.

  • Click the list box on the right-hand side to change the currently edited GP to the one you require.
  • Rename an “Unused” GP to meet individual requirements.
  • Once a change has been made to the GP, click the Apply button.

To change the appearance of a selected feature, refer to Selection GP.

Tip: To find the GP code for any feature in Quickmap, select an example using the Info tool and press F9. The GP will appear in the title bar of the Symbology pop-up. For example, a parcel boundary may show as GP2 (or GP14 for post Land Online parcels).
