Option Styles

Defining Styles from Text Matching Options

You can create styles for a Data Layer that simply needs to specify that selected data items are present. If a data item is present, it is visible on the map in the colour that you pick for that data item’s style.

Note

A style or style rule defines the rule applied to data fields used to trigger the chosen style colour. If no style rules trigger for an item, the item will not be shown in the layer

For a full description of all of the stages involved in creating a Data Layer, see Creating a Data Layer - Process Overview.
