Purpose
Specifies a symbol style, such as shape, color, and size, to display point objects. You can use this clause in the MapBasic window in MapInfo Pro.
Symbol( shape, color, size )shape is a character, such as a circle or a star, and may be from MapInfo Pro's standard symbol set, see MapInfo 3.0 Symbols.
color is an integer RGB color value, see RGB() function.
size is an integer point size from 1 to 48.
Symbol is a clause and not a complete MapBasic statement. It specifies the settings that dictate the appearance of a point object: Object-related statements, such as the CreatePoint() function, use a Symbol clause to set the display style for an object.
