You have just added three new layers to the map. Now you need to adjust the symbology<br />

for the layers you added. You will change the railroad layer you added to use a common<br />

railroad symbol. You will similarly change the building footprints. Finally, you will adjust<br />

the road centerlines, so they are symbolized based on their condition:<br />

1. Right-click on the bldg_footprints layer and select <strong>Pro</strong>perties.<br />

2. Click on General located in the pane on the left-hand side of the <strong>Pro</strong>perties window.<br />

3. Change the name to Buildings and click on OK. Note what happens to the layer in<br />

the Contents pane.<br />

When you right-clicked on the bldg_footprints layer, did you notice what<br />

happened to the ribbon? The FEATURE LAYER contextual tab automatically<br />

appeared providing access to the tools it contains. You will now use those tools to<br />

make adjustments to the Building layer you just renamed:<br />

4. In the FEATURE LAYER contextual tab, select the APPEARANCE tab.<br />

5. Click on the Symbology tool and, if necessary, select Single Symbol. This opens the<br />

Symbology pane on the right-hand side of the <strong>ArcGIS</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> interface. The Symbology<br />

pane allows you to make changes to the symbology settings for a layer.<br />

6. Click on the small rectangular symbol located under Current symbol to open the<br />

Symbol Gallery.
