Hi,<br>
<br>
Background symbols for highway numbers are better done in the
labelling settings, and not with different styles. That you way you
only need one layer and one category - the rest is done with rules
for the individual graphical properties. You can use CASE rules for
having different simple shape or SVG backgrounds.<br>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">I am trying
to add highway route number background symbols to a
transportation layer. There are 9 different unique symbols. I
can only specify one per layer. I tried using Layer
Properties>Feature Subset> query but could only specify
one feature set for the layer. I also tried double clicking
the line symbol for a subset under style and the green plus
sign but that only produced lines drawn with the marker
symbol. Do I need to add 9 copies of the layer, set the
properties for each subset I need and symbolize each
individually?</div>
