Thanks Kenneth. I have just begun using the Maestro API. Thanks again for all your work on this.
Using this API to access the layer properties does sound easier than using a layerfactory to generate the LayerDefinition XML. So I think I will need to create the VectorLayerDefinition, VectorScaleRange, PointTypeStyle, PointSymbolization2DType, MarkSymbolType, PointTypeStyleType, and FillType. Then put all these pieces together into a LayerDefinition. Am I missing something? Do you have any maestro code snippets that will jumpstart my dev on this?

PointTypeStyle? LineTypeStyle? And some providers return the wrong results. Rather than using the layerfactory method, have you tried the MaestroAPI: http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/wiki/maestro/MaestroAPI Using the MaestroAPI, you can access the "PointTypeStyle" (and all other properties), as a class rather than Xml. Regards, Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S Jackie C. Ng skrev: Look at the class definition of the feature source it (the layer) is referencing. More specifically, look at the geometry property and see what geometry types it supports. This will correspond with what styles you can have in your layer. - Jackie Greenhough, Jamie wrote: I'm trying to programmatically add shape files as a FeatureSource, and then use a .NET layer factory (ported from PHP) to add a LayerDefinition to the MapGuide repository. I can add the shape files and create a MapGuide FeatureSource just great. I'm stuck with how to determine if the FeatureSource contains Line or Point data. Specifically the <PointTypeStyle> and <LineTypeStyle> nodes in the LayerDefinition.xml. Does anyone have experience with this? Thanks!
