Thanks Michael. BUFFER just does what I expected it to do. The labels are farther apart and one of them doesn't get drawn because there isn't room for it. David. -Original Message- From: mapserver-users-boun...@lists.osgeo.org [mailto:mapserver-users-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On

BUFFER used to also expand the size of the billboard, but that's not the case anymore. I don't think it's currently possible to expand the billboard, although it should soon be possible to do so in the near future (we can also imagine rounded rectangle billboards to). (the following is slightly

Hello, I've a doubt about how MapServer handles the EPSG:4326 CRS in WMS 1.3.0. With the CRS EPSG:4326, longitude/latitude are reverted so the map should be rotated by 90° on the right, with latitude on X axis and longitude on y axis . But on the example below the map has longitude on X

I am considering moving from Apache (2.2.x) to nginx. Are there any issues with MapServer CGI + nginx that I should be aware of? Looking forward -- while I am using only MapServer via CGI, I might consider Perl MapScript in the future. Again, would that pose any problem with nginx? -- Puneet
