@Matt: I doubt I can use the standard symbol features of Mapserver. Maybe. The hatch symbol is but one example. I have approx 10 - 20 image-based fills of all different types. These were created for our published, standardized geologic maps. Our web-based maps need to look identical to our publications. Thanks for the suggestion.
@Havard: Thanks for the info. I'm glad there's a fix for this in 6.2. I can wait until then. - John *********************************************** John Callahan, Research Scientist Delaware Geological Survey, University of Delaware URL: http://www.dgs.udel.edu ************************************************* On Thu, Mar 29, 2012 at 1:00 AM, Matt McClelland <m...@wildwalks.com> wrote: > Hi John > > I can't answer you question specifically I have not tried that feature > > But can you use standard symbols to do the hatch-fill instead?
