320 | | The following additional schema change has been made: |
321 | | |
322 | | * the default value for !LineUsage.!VertexControl has been changed to '!OverlapWrap' in version 1.1.0 of the !SymbolDefinition schema. |
323 | | |
324 | | The default value for !VertexControl in schema version 1.0.0 is '!OverlapNone'. With this setting symbols are distributed along the polyline according to the offset / repeat parameters, but no symbols are drawn so that they overlap a vertex where the feature geometry changes by more than the !VertexAngleLimit. In the case of dense data (not uncommon in a mapping context) it means portions of many features will be drawn with a default solid line style instead of with the symbol defining a custom line style. |
325 | | |
326 | | Also, in the old stylization the behavior of line styles is effectively the same as with wrapping enabled. |
327 | | |
328 | | Based on these two items we feel that a default !VertexControl value of '!OverlapWrap' is a better choice, and is the value that gives the line style behavior most users are expecting. |

| 327 | The '!OverlapNoWrap' setting is no longer required. Qualitatively it's the same as using '!OverlapNone' but with the !VertexAngleLimit set to 180 degrees or larger. |
