Hi, I have a SLD which specifies a line offset using the PerpendicularOffset on a LineSymbolizer. However, this is not working as I expected.
The SLD 1.1 specification says: "The distance is in uoms and is positive to the left-hand side of the line string. Negative numbers mean right." I have the impression that in GeoServer, this is the other way around. For instance: take the 'Offset line' example: https://docs.geoserver.org/maintain/en/user/styling/sld/cookbook/lines.html#offset-line <LineSymbolizer> <Stroke> <CssParameter name="stroke">#FF0000</CssParameter> <CssParameter name="stroke-dasharray">5 2</CssParameter> </Stroke> <PerpendicularOffset>5</PerpendicularOffset> </LineSymbolizer> In that example: the offset is positive, so the dashed line should be on the left-hand side of the original line. However, when I look at the screenshot that comes with the example and also look at the data inside the shp file, the dashed lines are drawn on the right-hand side of the lines. Is that a bug, or am I missing something? Maybe my definition of 'left-hand side' is wrong? For me, 'left-hand side' means: if you start at the beginning of the line and go to the end of it, the 'left-hand side' is the side on your left, correct ? kind regards, Maarten _______________________________________________ Geoserver-users mailing list Please make sure you read the following two resources before posting to this list: - Earning your support instead of buying it, but Ian Turton: http://www.ianturton.com/talks/foss4g.html#/ - The GeoServer user list posting guidelines: http://geoserver.org/comm/userlist-guidelines.html If you want to request a feature or an improvement, also see this: https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Successfully-requesting-and-integrating-new-features-and-improvements-in-GeoServer Geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geoserver-users
