<font face="Georgia">Greetings, David.<br>
I followed your instructions and I am making some progress. I now have two categories with individual symbologies for the Mile Marker point layer.<br>
However, there seems to be a problem with my CSV file or something else. The layer is not displaying the first </font><font face="Georgia">Mile Marker</font><font face="Georgia"> point and I cannot see why.<br>
The first point displayed is M2, not M1.<br><br>
Here are the beginning entries in the CSV file<br><br>
Lat Long Mile Style<br>
-79.92445 39.70958 M 1 1<br>
-79.936296 39.698546 M 2 1<br>
-79.939802 39.68499 M 3 1<br>
-79.958298 39.683171 M 4 2<br><br><br>
The layer does not display M1. The first point displayed is M2.<br>
I verified M1 coordinates are correct.<br><br>
There are screen shots here:<br><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://photos.app.goo.gl/UuBvw1Y6XNNahb5aA">https://photos.app.goo.gl/UuBvw1Y6XNNahb5aA</a><br><br>
Any idea of what the problem might be.<br>
Thanks,<br>
WV-Mike<br>

<font face="Georgia">You can style markers differently, even if they are in the same layer. I would add a new integer column to the CSV file "style". Points that are to receive the same styling get the same integer value. For example, red markers are 1, blue are 2, etc. Or square are 1, round are 2, etc. Then in the properties->symbolize tab, select "Categorized" for the styling method, and select the new style field for value. Then set the style for each category.<br></font> <font face="Georgia"><br>
I think this approach has two advantages:<br>
1. Easier import of the point<br>
2. Better control over grouping points with similar styling.<br></font> <font face="Georgia"><br>
There are probably other, perhaps more powerful ways that someone else can suggest. <br></font> <font face="Georgia"><br></font> <font face="Georgia"><br>
