[mapserver-users] Scalebar label

I'm relatively new to Mapserver and I'm attempting to implement Mapserver as on OGC WMS. I have two problems, so any help would be greatly appreciated. I've attached my mapfile definition at the bottom of the e-mail.

1. I have defined a scalebar, which I'd like to embed in the map. This works fine however, I want to place some text (a copyright notice) next to the scalebar (i.e. along the bottom of the map). To do this I think I need to include a label entry in my scalebar definition, but I can't work out how to set the text I want to display.

2. I have a vector layer which contains 136 polygons (name: 'boarders'). I'd like to make these semi-transparent, so you can still see the raster data in the layer below. Can you do this with Mapserver?

I'm using Mapserver 3.5 on Windows 2000.

Thanks in advance,

Andrew
