Hi Users
I would like to render a vector symbol along the line in a layer. This
vector symbol should be rotated according to orientation of linesegments
(for example a arrow along one way street). When I use negative GAP with
truetype symbol it work perfectly but I have probelms with vector
symbols to rotate them.
I use this definition of Symbol but it doesn't work:
SYMBOL
NAME "testsymbol"
TYPE VECTOR
POINTS
5 0
2 1
0 2.5
2 4
5 5
5 5
2 6
0 7.5
2 9
5 10
END
STYLE 1 8 1 18 END
GAP -99 # doesn't work
END
I read in docu http://mapserver.org/mapfile/symbol.html that:
"When drawing the symbol along a line segment, a negative GAP will will
add 180 degress to the angle. The TrueType and PixMap symbols are always
oriented along the line."
My layer definiton is:
LAYER
NAME testtest
STATUS on
TYPE line
TRANSFORM false
FEATURE
WKT "LINESTRING (0 0, 100 100, 0 100)"
END
CLASS
STYLE
#ANGLE AUTO
SYMBOL "testsymbol"
COLOR 0 255 0
#SIZE 8
END
END
END
Does vectorsymbol play with negative GAP parameter?
