I found this old thread as I was searchin for a solution to my problem. Did this feature ever emerge in geoserver? (did not find it in the documentation).
I have a need to fill polygons with (small) symbols (small compared to the size of the polygon). I want there to be a spacing between the symbols, around 10 times the size of symbol. Is this possible? or is the best solution to include that spacing into the symbol (svg)? thank you in advance, Jakob aaime wrote > > TJMartin ha scritto: >> Hi Andrea >> >> I have posted the first issue as a bug on Codehaus.
