[mapserver-users] changing dynamically LABEL BACKGROUNDCOLOR
Hallo everybody, the background color of labels cannot be changed dynamically via attribute binding or CGI parameters, is right? Is there a workaround for this? Regards, Tommaso ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

Re: [mapserver-users] changing dynamically LABEL BACKGROUNDCOLOR
Use one CLASS for each colour used, set them to depend on your attribute and repeat the LABEL definition for each of them. If you the number of colours is limited, this would probably be a solution.

Re: [mapserver-users] changing dynamically LABEL BACKGROUNDCOLOR
Before starting to implement something extensive around label BACKGROUNDCOLOR, you should be aware that this keyword will not be supported anymore starting from version 6.0. it is replaced with a STYLE GEOMTRANSFORM LABELPOLY COLOR r g b END which greatly extends the possibilities of styling the label background (e.g. outlinecolor, symbol, offset, opacity, etc...), as all the keywords relating to STYLE are applicable. regards, thomas On Thu, Jan 27, 2011 at 22:55, Jean-François Gigand wrote: > Use one CLASS for each colour used, set them to depend on your > attribute and repeat the LABEL definition for each of them. > If you the number of colours is limited, this would probably be a solution. > > Jeff > > 2011/1/27 tommaso : >> >> >> On Thu, 2011-01-27 at 16:47 +0100, Julien Cigar wrote: >> >> use SLD ? >> >> Thanks, this were a solution but I should radically change my project.

Interesting, could you point me to the documentation of the GEOMTRANSFORM-stuff? I could not find anything on the net.

Re: [mapserver-users] changing dynamically LABEL BACKGROUNDCOLOR
Stephan, I'm sorry, this isn't documented yet (to my knowledge), but should be rather soon (see http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/3609) the other GEOMTRANSFORM option you can use is LABELPNT, which will apply the current STYLE to a point feature centered on the label point. This should allow to completely remove the need for ANNOTATION layers. regards, thomas On Fri, Jan 28, 2011 at 09:22, Stephan Holl wrote: > Hello thomas, > > thomas bonfort , [20110128 - 08:23:31] > >> Before starting to implement something extensive around label >> BACKGROUNDCOLOR, you should be aware that this keyword will not be >> supported anymore starting from version 6.0. >> >> it is replaced with a >> >> STYLE >> GEOMTRANSFORM LABELPOLY >> COLOR r g b >> END >> >> which greatly extends the possibilities of styling the label >> background (e.g. outlinecolor, symbol, offset, opacity, etc...), as >> all the keywords relating to STYLE are applicable. > > Interesting, could you point me to the documentation of the > GEOMTRANSFORM-stuff?

Been on a short holiday, where did this get left? If you can hack the source it's a very simple change (I think) to maplexer.l to allow the updates you need.

Actually I just ran a test against 5.6 and found I could change a labels background color via URL.
