Actually, dealing with "the legend", or the contents of the entire map collar, is non-trivial, however, a library that can render the content within a map's neat line has all the tools necessary to be able to render the map's collar. The difference may be that there would need to be some additional functionality, or different methods of calling the same underlying functionality, in order to make the tasks involved in composing the collar easy.
If you make the map in PDF, you could provide the legend as a floating annotation that can be moved around by the user. If you are using OCG, you also have the Optional Content panel that can be used as a legend and that can be used to make certain layers visible/invisible. All this is fairly easy to achieve in PDF. br, Bruno _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
