This doesn't work for me. The symbols still appear in
graduated colors, all the same size - and the size doesn't seem
to change when I change the number, although it does between
millimeters and map units. I'm sure there's just something I'm
missing (I'm new to QGIS) but I can't figure it out. Thanks for
your help!
What you can do is go back to the old symbology, and categorize your
symbols as you did at first. Then just double click on each symbol
to individually set it's size (and color, etc). It's a bit of grunt
work, but gets the job done...

Hi Caroline,
If you use new symbology, the option to scale point symbols
is hidden under the button 'Advanced'. With 'Size scale
field' you can select a field. Next you have to change
'Size', to give the symbols the size you want. If the values
are large, and you use millimeters, the symbols get much too
large, even if you use the smallest possible value for Size
(0,01). A better option is to use map units.

Hi,
I'm trying to create graduated symbols for a point
layer, and the only option it will give me is by
color, but I want graduated symbols by size. I was
only able to get the color to work with "old
symbology" because in new symbology the layer would
just disappear altogether and I had to re-add it. So
in old symbology I can get dots of different colors
but not different sizes. Am I missing a plugin or
something? I'm working in 1.7.1 on Win XP. Thanks in
advance for your help!!
