How to make it?
Based on the above marker symbol design, the steps for making the marker symbol is as follows.
- Draw a regular trapezoid. Since the function of directly drawing a trapezoid is not available in the marker symbol editor, you can draw by other methods. Here, we draw a rectangle and then use the clip function to get a regular trapezoid;
- Draw a circle with the radius of 8, and the position of the circle is consistent with that is required in the design;
- Implement the union of the trapezoid and circle to make it to be a region stroke, and then set the border style and fill style of this region stroke.
