Symbology
Hi everyone! I have a question about having multiple attributes in one symbol. Is there a way to have for instance, triangular symbols which get bigger as the magnitude (let's say population) gets bigger, and of which color gets gradually changes as another magnitude (urbanization index) changes. I tried multiple attributes option under Symbology. It doesn't give me what I want. It gives gradual color and the symbols on top of it. So here is the link what I want. Somebody had this question before. I couldn't find the answer. I appreciate any help. Thank you!!

Mapping Center Answer:
The only way to achieve this right now is to make multiple copies of your feature class as separate layers. For each layer, select only those features you want to symbolize and then create a single symbol of the size and color you want. Repeat this for the next feature class to symbolize the next category of data (larger symbol, different color) and so on. So, if you want five differently sized symbols as different colors you need five feature classes, each with a different size and color symbol.
