Edit the thematic map

The desktop product supports access to Unique-values Map, Graudated Colors Map, Thematic Label Map, Custom Thematic Map, Statistical Thematic Map, Graduated Symbols Map, Dot Density Map, Custom Thematic Map, Grid Unique-values Map, and Grid Graudated Colors Map. That is to say, the user can directly modify the Geometry in the thematic map that has been made. There is no need to edit the DataSource first and then make it into a thematic map again.

Instructions for use

  • When the Source Data of the Generate Thematic Maps and the thematic map layer exist in the same Map at the same time, editing the thematic map layer is actually editing the Source Data of the Generate Thematic Maps layer. For example, if you translate a Geometry of a thematic map layer, the corresponding Geometry in the Source Data layer will also move.
  • Because the thematic map depends on the source data of the Create Thematic Map, the Source Data will change when the thematic map is edited. If you do not want to destroy Source Data, please backup the data in advance.

Operation steps

  1. Create a thematic map for a vector or Raster layer in Layer Manager.
  2. Click the edit button in front of the thematic map layer node to enable the editable function.
  3. Edit the Geometry in the thematic map layer. The editing method is the same as that of normal Geometry. For Geometry editing, see the Edit the object .
