Hi Ahmet,
You can use two styles in your class. Something like:

STYLE #bigger white one
COLOR "#FF"
OPACITY 0.5

ANGLE FOLLOW is subject to MAXOVERLAPANGLE (see

Ah. This seems to be a difference between using ANNOTATIONS vs.

Hello,
I'm trying to understand the new CLUSTER object. I have a feeling that
I'm just expecting things to work differently than they do, but wanted
to confirm.
If you have a CLUSTER object with a GROUP expression in it (e.g. GROUP (
'[type]' = 'car' ), the Cluster:Group feature attribute
in the union layer, the
two source layers must have STATUS DEFAULT for anything to show up
(which, I think, causes them to be drawn twice?).
Am I missing something with how UNIONs and STYLEITEM AUTO work? Or is
this how it was designed?
Thanks,

Hi,
For the railfar symbol, all you need is for the PATTERN to be in the
style (no symbol required). Something like:
STYLE
COLOR 0 0 0

For the rail symbol, you need to move the GAP parameter from the
symbol into the style.

When you say that you could very well use expressions, do you mean
