Forcing the Symbol of all Points on an overlay

This is similar to setting the (By Overlay) symbol (see above), except that this procedure makes all points on the overlay use the selected symbol, not just those which use the (By Overlay) symbol.

  1. In the Overlays dialog, select the Styles tab.
  2. Select the overlay for which you want to force the symbol.
  3. Click on the required symbol in the Symbol drop-down list.
  4. Tick the Override checkbox.
  5. Click OK.
