Update user guide content for Maestro 3.5. We should really have more information about the Symbol Definition Editors, but this should suffice for now

+Composite Style Rules
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Clicking the **...** button beside the previewed area style on the rule editor control will display the Symbol Instances Dialog
+
+.. figure:: images/ldf_vector_composite_rule.png
+
+ *A Composite Style Rule control*
+
+This dialog allows you to include references to existing Symbol Defintions or define such Symbol Definitions inline.

+
+ *The Symbol Instances Dialog*
+
+For each symbol definition you include (referenced or inline), you can provide override any parameter values that are exposed. You 
+can use FDO expressions for override parameter values.
+
+The inline symbol definitions use the same editors as the normal symbol definition editor. See :ref:`symbol_definitions`
+ 
+.. note::
+
+    Unlike Point/Line/Area styles, the preview is blank because rendering composite symbolization preview is not currently supported. The only
+    means of previewing your composite symbolization settings is trial and error with the current edited layer defintion.

+
+Understanding Symbol Definitions
+================================
+
+Symbol Definitions provide signifcantly advanced stylization options for map features as opposed to the stylization options provided by the Layer Definition.
+
+A Symbol Definition exists in two forms:
+
+ * A Simple Symbol Definition, which supports the definition of a symbol based on vector geometry, an image, or text. Simple Symbol Definition resources can also contain usage context settings which specify how it is applied when used to stylize point, line, or area geometry. Additionally, stylization settings can be parameterized and exposed in the form of parameter definitions, which can be overridden on a per-layer basis.
+ 
+ * A Compound Symbol Definition allows multiple Simple Symbol Definitions to be combined into a composite symbol.
+
+Components of a Simple Symbol Definition
+----------------------------------------
+
+A Simple Symbol Definition is composed of the following components:
+
+ * A collection of graphics
+ * A collection of 0 or more symbol parameters
+ * A point, line or area usage context
+ * Advanced symbol settings
+ 
+The Simple Symbol Definition Editor provides the user interfaces to edit all aspects of the Simple Symbol
+Definition.
+
+The Simple Symbol Definition Editor
+-----------------------------------
+
+General Settings
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The **General Settings** section of the editor allows you to specify the name and description of this symbol
+
+.. figure:: images/ssym_editor_general.png
+
+Graphics
+^^^^^^^^
+
+The **Graphics** section of the editor allows you to specify the visual elements of the symbol. 
+
+.. figure:: images/ssym_editor_graphics.png
+
+You can add 3 different types of graphics:
+
+ * Text Elements
+ * Images
+ * Geometric Paths
+
+Symbol Parameters
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The **Symbol Parameters** section of the editor allows you to specify parameters for this symbol. 
+
+.. figure:: images/ssym_editor_parameters.png
+
+Nearly all properties in the Simple Symbol Definition can reference a symbol parameter instead of specifying
+a hard-coded value. Such parameters can be specified on a per-layer basis via FDO expressions, allowing for
+symbols whose stylization behaviour is driven by the underlying feature data.
+
+Symbol Usage
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The **Symbol Usage** section of the editor allows you to define which geometry types this symbol can be
+used with
+
+.. figure:: images/ssym_editor_usage_contexts.png
+
+.. note::
+
+    You must specify at least one usage context. Otherwise, your symbol is not usable in any layer definition.
+
+Advanced Settings
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The **Advanced Settings** section of the editor allows you to specify resize box settings of the Simple Symbol Definition
+
+.. figure:: images/ssym_editor_advanced.png
+
+The Compound Symbol Definition Editor
+-------------------------------------
+
+The Compound Symbol Definition Editor allows you to combine multiple Simple Symbol Definitions into a single composite symbol.
+
+.. figure:: images/csym_editor.png
+
+The Simple Symbol Definitions you combine can be either:
+
+ * A reference to an existing Simple Symbol Definition
+ * An inline Simple Symbol Definition
+
+Inline Simple Symbol Definitions use the same Simple Symbol Definition editor, embedded within the existing Compound Symbol Definition Editor.

+Understanding Watermarks
+========================
+
+Watermarks allow your Maps and Layers to be "branded" with text or images of your choosing
+
+The Watermark Definition Editor
+-------------------------------
+
+The Watermark Definition Editor allows you create your own watermarks
+
+.. figure:: images/wmd_editor.png
+
+Watermarks can be either text or images and in terms of appearance can be a single instance at a specific position, or tiled at repeat horizontal and vertical intervals of your choice.
+
+Previews are supported by the Watermark Editor. Previewing the watermark will launch an empty map with your watermark settings
+
+.. figure:: images/wmd_preview.png
+
+The Watermark Instance Collection Editor
+----------------------------------------
+
+The Watermark Instance Collection Editor allows you to attach watermark definitions to a Layer or Map Definition. If the schema version of the Layer or Map Definition supports Watermarks ( >= 2.3.0 ), the respective resource editor will include this Watermark Instance Collection Editor allowing you to attach watermarks to the respective layer or map.
+
+.. figure:: images/wmd_collection_editor.png
+
+Each Watermark instance you add can have its appearance and/or positioning settings be overridden with values specific for this layer or map. 
+
+.. figure:: images/wmd_instance_dialog.png
+
+If you add Watermark instances without overriding any appearance/positioning settings, the default settings from the originating Watermark Definition will be used.
