Scatter Symbols

 

 

 

Use this tool, located on Tools Menu > Show Map Editing Tools > Advanced Tools > Cleanup and Conversion Tools, to separate clusters of symbols. This is sometimes necessary when, for various reasons, two or more symbols have been placed on top of each other and it is hard to work with them independently.

 

To scatter symbols

1) Select this menu item from the  menu.

2) Answer Yes to continue.

3) Select a layer to work with

 

Notes:

Any symbols exactly on top of each other or within 3 feet of each other will be shifted 6 feet in a random direction.

Symbols do not need to belong to the same feature to be separated.
