How would you approach this problem? Would you expand each layer in the Contents pane and copy-paste the symbol properties? Import your new map into the old project and start overwriting each color, and line symbol, and label placement, and text symbol?<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the best solution here? If the previous project owner didn\u2019t save any of their symbols to a style, that\u2019s going to take a while.<\/p>\n

Or perhaps they did<\/em> save all those symbols, but the style is missing, or the link to it is broken and you can\u2019t get it back. Crazy things happen to data; we\u2019re only human. Either way, you don\u2019t have the ability to fix old data.<\/p>\n

Well, starting with ArcGIS Pro 3.2, you can export all<\/em> symbols (and more generally, all items) in the map \u00a0as style items and save them to a style<\/a> in a single process. It works similarly to the \u201cExport Map Styles\u201d control in ArcMap \u2013 it has been redesigned and simplified in ArcGIS Pro so you can save time when faced with scenarios like the one above.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":2228792,"id":2228792,"title":"portland","filename":"portland.png","filesize":476918,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/01\/portland.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-pro\/mapping\/export-symbols-and-style-items-from-arcgis-pro\/portland","alt":"A map of the city of Portland, Oregon.","author":"9702","description":"","caption":"A simple map of the city of Portland, Oregon - with lots of symbols!","name":"portland","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":2228772,"date":"2024-01-19 20:53:34","modified":"2024-01-19 20:54:22","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1028,"height":834,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/01\/portland-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/01\/portland.png","medium-width":322,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/01\/portland.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":623,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/01\/portland.png","large-width":1028,"large-height":834,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/01\/portland.png","1536x1536-width":1028,"1536x1536-height":834,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/01\/portland.png","2048x2048-width":1028,"2048x2048-height":834,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/01\/portland-573x465.png","card_image-width":573,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2024\/01\/portland.png","wide_image-width":1028,"wide_image-height":834}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

A dialog box opens where you can choose to save the new style, and whether you want duplicate style items to be included.
