Additional Information

This is by design. The reason behind this behavior is Scene Viewer derives the size of a 3D symbol from the height or vertical axis and applies the size proportionally to all other axis. When measuring the height of the object, it is exactly as defined in the Length attribute.

Workaround

  • Use an attribute that contains height values (if available), or calculate a field where the height is a function proportional to the length (given a specific symbol proportions).
  • Use ArcGIS API for JavaScript for additional controls on symbol sizing.
