Rethinking the Symbol Experience:An ArcGIS Pro Case Study

A Symbol LegacyA long graphical history

Symbols
• Symbols
• Collections of graphical shapes, strokes, and fills
• Applied to geographic features to locate, categorize, classify
• Almost every GIS workflow relies on symbols
• Wide spectrum of complexity and requirements

Working with symbols ArcMap
• Three common usability obstacles
• Selecting symbols vs modifying symbols
• Endlessly recursive model
• Modal dialogs covering the map
• Legacy concerns
• Adapt to an existing user base
• Convert existing symbolized maps

Getting it RightToward a new symbol experience
![Page 9: Rethinking the Symbol Experience: An ArcGIS Pro Case Study Edie Punt @ epunt Product Engineer ArcGIS Pro Team Richard Caballero @ richc117 UX Designer.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bf721a28abf838c7ebf9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
ArcGIS Pro
• A new structural symbol model
• Updated UI
• Support 2D & 3D simultaneously
• Design for the past: support conversion
• Design for the future: support still-unimplemented functionality

Selecting and Modifying Symbols
• Place symbol selection (Gallery), and
symbol modification (Properties) on the same pane
• Neither gets precedence
• Sticky pane- you return to the last side used
• Properties divided into three tabs
• Symbol: quick, easy edits to basic properties
• Layers: access all properties of all symbol layers
• Structure: change the symbol structure (layers & effects)

Committing Symbol Changes
• Truly modeless? Or commit with an Apply button?
• many small related symbol modifications made at once
• build a logical undo/redo stack
• robust, interactive preview

Stop the Madness
• Limit recursion
• access only the basic properties of component symbols
• vector markers
• halos
• Mitigation:
• better style experience
• more styles online
• vector marker editor

Collaborating on Designs and Experience
• Dev Team:
• subject matter experts
• know the legacy, the users, the use cases
• Creative Team
• user interface experts
• understanding of the UI of the whole platform

Did We Get It Right?
• On-going Holistic Testing
• Internal and External
• Full workflows
• Usability Testing
• Intuitive
• Discoverable
• Delightful
