<SymbolLayer />

SymbolLayer is a style layer that renders icon and text labels at points or along lines on the map.

Styles

symbolPlacement

Label placement relative to its geometry.

Type
enum
Default Value
point
Supported Values
  • point: The label is placed at the point where the geometry is located.
  • line: The label is placed along the line of the geometry. Can only be used on `LineString` and `Polygon` geometries.
  • line-center: The label is placed at the center of the line of the geometry. Can only be used on `LineString` and `Polygon` geometries. Note that a single feature in a vector tile may contain multiple line geometries.
Expression Parameters
zoom

symbolSpacing

Distance between two symbol anchors.

Type
number
Default Value
250
Units
pixels
Minimum
1
Expression Parameters
zoom

symbolAvoidEdges

If true, the symbols will not cross tile edges to avoid mutual collisions. Recommended in layers that don't have enough padding in the vector tile to prevent collisions, or if it is a point symbol layer placed after a line symbol layer. When using a client that supports global collision detection, like VietMap GL JS version 0.42.0 or greater, enabling this property is not needed to prevent clipped labels at tile boundaries.

Type
boolean
Default Value
false
Expression Parameters
zoom

iconAllowOverlap

If true, the icon will be visible even if it collides with other previously drawn symbols.

Type

If true, text will display without their corresponding icons when the icon collides with other symbols and the text does not.

Type

Expression Parameters

iconRotationAlignment

In combination with symbolPlacement, determines the rotation behavior of icons.

Type
enum
Default Value
auto
Supported Values
  • map: When `symbol-placement` is set to `point`, aligns icons east-west. When `symbol-placement` is set to `line` or `line-center`, aligns icon x-axes with the line.
  • viewport: Produces icons whose x-axes are aligned with the x-axis of the viewport, regardless of the value of `symbol-placement`.
  • auto: When `symbol-placement` is set to `point`, this is equivalent to `viewport`. When `symbol-placement` is set to `line` or `line-center`, this is equivalent to `map`.
Requires
iconImage
Expression Parameters
zoom

iconSize

Scales the original size of the icon by the provided factor. The new pixel size of the image will be the original pixel size multiplied by iconSize. 1 is the original size; 3 triples the size of the image.

Type
boolean
Default Value
false
Requires
iconImage
Expression Parameters
zoom

iconOffset

Offset distance of icon from its anchor. Positive values indicate right and down, while negative values indicate left and up. Each component is multiplied by the value of iconSize to obtain the final offset in pixels. When combined with iconRotate the offset will be as if the rotated direction was up.

Type
array
Default Value
[0,0]
Requires

Expression Parameters
zoom, feature

textRotationAlignment

In combination with symbolPlacement, determines the rotation behavior of the individual glyphs forming the text.

Type
enum
Default Value
auto
Supported Values
  • map: When `symbol-placement` is set to `point`, aligns text east-west. When `symbol-placement` is set to `line` or `line-center`, aligns text x-axes with the line.
  • viewport: Produces glyphs whose x-axes are aligned with the x-axis of the viewport, regardless of the value of `symbol-placement`.
  • viewport-glyph: When `symbol-placement` is set to `point`, aligns text to the x-axis of the viewport. When `symbol-placement` is set to `line` or `line-center`, aligns glyphs to the x-axis of the viewport and places them along the line.
  • auto: When `symbol-placement` is set to `point`, this is equivalent to `viewport`. When `symbol-placement` is set to `line` or `line-center`, this is equivalent to `map`.
