Personally, I do not feel strongly either way, other than being hesitant to change something that's been in place for 8 years. Perhaps an option could be added to control the type of icon to generate?

    Folks,

    According to a client's report, the current behaviour of drawing the
    legend images may be confusing, as the polygon layer with no fill
    shows line thumbnail (zigzag) in the legend image.
    I've been tracking down the changes in SVN and came to the conlusion
    that this behaviour has been introduced with
    http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/changeset/2172 8 years ago.

    I'd be curious to know if this approach is satisfactory for all
    users, or would it be more convenient to show an empty rectangle in
    these cases? I would personally be in favour of drawing a rectangle
    in order to make it clear that the layer type is polygon and not
    line. Or is there any other reason that I'm not aware of, which
    makes the current approach more compelling?


    Best regards,

    Tamas
