[mapserver-users] missing symbol file on mapserver.org
There's a broken link on http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/symbology/construction.html The symbol file which is referenced throughout the document is missing: http://www.mapmedia.de/dokumente/umn_signaturen_howto/vortrag_demo.zip Arnulf appears to be on travel, so I thought I'd toss it out here.

[mapserver-users] map server wms request
Hello everybody; I am trying to learn how WMS working with cmpatible with MapServer. So I set up MapServer OGC workshop package. But I have a problem when I want to send WMS Get capabilities request, there is a wndow asking me if I want to save mapserv.exe or run it. In mapserver documnetation there is written that problem can be solved by *You could configure your web browser to handle the application/vnd.ogc.wms_xml MIME type a certain way (i.e.open in Notepad, etc.). * *What should I do for configuring my browser?

AW: [mapserver-users] map server wms request
Hi, there is nothing wrong. Save mapserv.exe and open the file with an ascii editor (notepad) by yourself. The contents should be the GetCapabilities document or if something failed an error message. The configuration of the browser only allows you to open the document immediately without saving the response of your request. But the result is the same.

Re: [mapserver-users] Problem with transparency overlays
If you're using IE6 you'll probably need to add 'alpha:true' as a layer
option to get the browser to handle transparent png images.
ie change {isBaseLayer:false});
to {isBaseLayer:false, alpha:true});

Subject: Re: [mapserver-users] Problem with transparency overlays
Hi Rafael,
Here's what the doc has to say about the TRANSPARENT option in the MAP
object :
TRANSPARENT [on|off]
Use FORMATOPTION “TRANSPARENT=ON” in the /OUTPUTFORMAT/
http://mapserver.org/mapfile/outputformat.html#outputformat
declaration to specify if the output images should be transparent.
Deprecated since version 4.6.
So you should use OUTPUTFORMAT, for example like this :
OUTPUTFORMAT
NAME agg
MIMETYPE image/png
DRIVER AGG/PNG
EXTENSION png
IMAGEMODE RGBA
TRANSPARENT ON
FORMATOPTION INTERLACE=OFF
END
(the above example uses the AGG driver)
Then, in your Openlayers layer's definition, use this param :
roads = new OpenLayers.Layer.MapServer( Roads,
http://192.168.1.100/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=us_states.map;,
{layers: 'us_roads', map_imagetype: 'agg'}, {isBaseLayer:false});
The transparent option has no effects on a Layer.MapServer. It would
have on a Layer.WMS though.
Be sure to look at the OUTPUTFORMAT documentation to pick the right image
type you want to use.
Hope this helps,
Alexandre

Due to performance problems in this mode, using this workaround is not
recommend with OpenLayers.

[mapserver-users] label FOLLOW and OFFSET
Hi all, I have been playing with the FOLLOW label directive. What I am trying to achieve is a label that follows the street that is also OFFSET so that the label does not land on the line for the street, but instead 'above' it. Below is the LABEL directives that I am using, but note that I have also tried using the POSITION UC as well as the OFFSET 0 -6, but both give the same results. Please see the attached JPG image, you can see that 'M PARDO' is correct but that 'JR JUNIN' is not. LABEL COLOR 0 0 0 OUTLINECOLOR 255 255 255 TYPE TRUETYPE FONT ArialBold SIZE 7 ANTIALIAS TRUE ANGLE FOLLOW PARTIALS FALSE MINFEATURESIZE 40 MINDISTANCE 50 OFFSET 0 -6 BUFFER 7 END Any ideas as to why this is not working? I took a quick look in maplabel.c, but could not see anything obvious . . . thanks tim Tim Norris inline: example.jpg___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
