Description:

Used to add static text to an acetate layer.

Restrictions:

Outline and glowing should not be used together; use one or the other.
TEXTMARKERSYMBOL is part of an object in an acetate layer and can only be used with Image MapServices in an HTML viewer.

Notes:

TEXTMARKERSYMBOL is used only in acetate layers. To label features, use TEXTSYMBOL.

Attribute Descriptions for TEXTMARKERSYMBOL:

Attribute	Usage	Back to Top
angle	Angle of rotation in degrees moving counterclockwise; 0 degrees is horizontal.
antialiasing	Used to make edges of labels and symbols smoother. When set to true, antialiasing is active. Note that the time to generate a map may significantly increase when antialiasing is turned on.
blockout	Provides a background behind text. Select color using RGB values.
font	Font name. The name is case sensitive. If font name uses "&", use "&" instead. For example, ESRI Transportation & Civic should be written as ESRI Transportation & Civic. For Feature MapServices, the font must reside on the client machine or else the system default font is used.
fontcolor	Font color using RGB values.
fontsize	Font size.
fontstyle	Font style.
glowing	Glow color around text using RGB values.
halignment	Horizontal alignment of label compared to label point.
interval	Distance between point and printed label.
outline	Outline color using RGB values.
overlap	Determines if labels can overlap this symbol. When true, labels can overlap. When false, labels will not overlap the symbol. If labels are not drawing as expected, check if overlap is set to false for this symbol or any other symbol in the MapService.
printmode	Determines how labels are printed. If "none" is used, no change is made to the label: Welcome to ArcIMS. If "alllower" is used, all letters are lowercase: welcome to arcims. If "allupper" is used, all letters are uppercase: WELCOME TO ARCIMS. If "titlecaps" is used, the first letter of each word in a label is uppercase and everything else is lowercase: Welcome To Arcims.
transparency	Value to set percentage of transparency. 1.0 is 0 percent transparent. 0.0 is 100 percent transparent.
valignment	Vertical alignment of label compared to label point.
