New Post: Shape layer Point Type probem - always dimond

Thanks Sergei, and thanks for the quick reply, wow!
Worked like a charm.
If anyone is looking at this, then just for reference my updated code now looks like this:

            Dim options As New MapWinGIS.ShapeDrawingOptions
            options = sf.DefaultDrawingOptions
            options.PointSize = Size
            options.FillColor = Colour
            options.SetDefaultPointSymbol(MarkerType)

Where Size, Colour and MarkerType are suitably typed variables.


One other, tiny thing I notice, on the documentation page you gave the link to (which is excellent BTW), there code for the points example used the Utils class before its declared.

Shapefile sf = some_shapefile;
 ShapeDrawingOptions options = sf.DefaultDrawingOptions;
 options.FillColor = utils.ColorByName(tkMapColor.Red);
 Utils utils = new Utils();

Not sure if this is OK in C#, but it cant be done in VB
Thanks again, you guys are great.
