Point Styles
Using the Point Styles panel users can configure what symbol will be used to display points of a given type. In addition, the Show Labels for Points of This Type option allows a user to turn point labels off on a type-by-type basis. The Custom Symbols section allows users to create new symbols from their own bitmap and icon files which they can then use as the symbol to display for a given type.
Global Mapper's Point Type Features are listed in the Global Mapper Point Type Features table. Symbols are listed in the Global Mapper Symbols table.
Built - in Attributes
Global Mapper recognizes two field attributes as containing information for the display appearance of a Point Type. They are:
GM_TYPE=Address Label POINT_SYMBOL=Dot - Red
GM_TYPE references the name of the Point Feature Type. POINT_SYMBOL references the name of the symbol
