Hi,
I believe that QGIS has no way to show both points and polygons on the same
layer. MapInfo can do it with its own data but I have no experience on MapInfo
and WFS.
Forget the GIS clients because they only hide what really happens from you.
Send a direct WFS GetFeature request from your browser and see what it sends
for you. The URL is like this
http://demo.opengeo.org/geoserver/wfs?service=wfs&version=1.0.0&request=getfeature&typename=topp:states&maxfeatures=20
Edit the server name to point to your server and typename to be your typename.
Increase maxfeatures little by little. It you can find both kind of geometries
from the GML that comes from the server you have confirmed that the issue is in
QGIS and Mapinfo and their limited capabilities for showing mixed geometries.
If the GML contains only points we must continue our research.

Hi Julia
The points only display when I connect in either MapInfo or QGIS with WFS, but
when connecting with WMS in either MapInfo or QGIS both points and polygons
show.

Subject: Re: [Geoserver-users] WFS Mixed Geometry
Hi,
When you wrote "only the points display in WFS" did you mean that the GML data
that comes from Geoserver has only points or do you have some client software
in the middle which shows only points on the map?

Hello
We have Geoserver 2.4.1 connected to a PostGIS database. I have a table with
mixed geometry (points and areas) which displays fine in WMS, but only the
points display in WFS.
Can anyone enlighten me as to why WFS wouldn't display the areas please? Do I
need to have separate tables for different geometry?
Thanks
Sandra
