Hello,
I am working on a small add-in that will retrieve information about feature layers (symbology, definition queries, etc.), which will allow users to import / export these settings between map documents. I am looking for some guidance in collecting the symbology properties per feature layer. I have the following code that is hit for each feature layer in a map document:
Is it possible to collect symbology properties (i.e. in an .XML file), to reload into new feature layers in a new MXD? I was looking at the IFeatureRenderer's as well - is this a better method of obtaining symbology properties?
Any advice / direction is much appreciated! Thanks
