In the Point Style dialog box, click the Information Tab. Enter a name and description for the point style.
To define the symbol used to display the point, click the Marker tab. Specify the symbol type and options for size, scaling, and rotation.
To define how the point displays in 3D views, click the 3D Geometry Tab. Specify the 3D Geometry settings.
To define the display properties for the point style, click the Display Tab. Specify the dis-play properties for the symbol.
