If you assigned a Symbol Name to a custom symbol in XSym and placed the symbol
on the map, the Symbol Name displays in the demographic information area when
you right-click the symbol and select Info.
Importing a Bitmap
You can import a bitmap into DeLorme XSym to use as a symbol, but any bitmap you
import must be 24 x 24 pixels or less. You can assign a new category name for the symbol
to help locate it under the Find tab in the DeLorme mapping program.
To Import a Bitmap
Use the following steps to import a bitmap to use as a symbol.
1.
Click the Draw tab.
2.
Click and hold the Symbol/MapNote/Text Label/Image tool
to view its hidden options. Select the Symbol tool
.
3.
Under Symbols, click Edit.
The DeLorme XSym dialog box opens.
4.
Under Symbols in Set, click New to clear the Symbol Editing Grid.
5.
Click Import to display the Open Bitmap File dialog box. Browse to the location of
the bitmap and click Open.
The imported bitmap displays in the Symbol Editing Grid. See important Notes
below.
6.
Use the tools in the
Draw Tool Box
and under
Transparency
and
Anchor
to edit the
symbol.

To undo the last action, click the Undo button
under Edit Symbol.

To repeat the last action, click the Redo button
under Edit Symbol.
7.
To assign a symbol name to the current symbol, type a name or phrase in the
Symbol Name text box under Edit Symbol.
Note Once you assign a name to a symbol in a symbol set, each occurrence of that
symbol you place on the map retains the new symbol name in addition to the default
symbol name of "symbol."

Click OK when finished.
Notes
•
If you attempt to import a bitmap larger than 24 x 24 pixels into XSym, a message
box warns you the selected bitmap is larger than 24 x 24 pixels and the image is
reduced.
•
If the bitmap is less than 24 x 24 pixels, the remaining area is filled to the edge of
the Symbol Editing Grid with one of the symbol pixel colors.
•
As you create a symbol, an image preview displays to the upper-left of the Symbol
Editing Grid. You can make edits to the symbol in either the Image Preview or the
Symbol Editing Grid. Any edits done in one view are mirrored in the other view.
