Re: [mapserver-users] 5.6.1 version and labels
Carlos, glad to hear that your issue is fixed. This is a new feature of MapServer 5.6: the ability to automatically scale the symbology when resolution changes so that the map maintains the same look at each resolution. For more info: http://www.mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms- rfc-55.html What's happen with your mapfile is that you set the resolution to 99 (which means that you wanted an output map of reso 99), but you did not set the defresolution (which tells mapserver the initial resolution your mapfile is supposed to be). In this case, the behavior of mapserver is to scale all the values to preserve the look of the mapfile. Without this functionnality, to convert a mapfile that use initialy a resolution of 72 to a printable mapfile of resolution 300 (example), you would have to convert all the value/size of symbol line etc... manually. regards, Alan On January 12, 2010 03:56:46 pm Carlos Ruiz wrote: > Oh, I tought it was one or the other.
