symbol height.
I guess that the following should work:
STYLE
SYMBOL wavy_line
WIDTH 1
SIZE 2
GAP -6
COLOR 0 0 0

Since you have y values from -1 to 1, and x values
Given that there's alot of undefined behavior with vector symbols, the
documentation for anchorpoint is pretty clear about what is supported:
quote
ANCHORPOINT can be used with SYMBOLs of TYPE ellipse, pixmap, svg,
truetype and vector. To ensure proper behaviour for vector symbols,

Hello, I'm trying to understand symbol orientation and (maybe) use of
