[Mapserver-users] bug on PHPDynLegend wiki post?

[cpurvis@asg.sc.edu (Charlton Purvis)]

Hi, Chip:

Infinite thanks for your dynamic legend PHP post
(http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?PHPDynLegend).  It's
great!

I have one thought, though.

You draw the map . . .

  $img = $map->draw();
  $url = $img->saveWebImage(MS_PNG, $map->transparent, $map->interlace,
50);

. . . at the very beginning of your .php -- before you run down the
legend checkboxes where you turn layers on and off.

Shouldn't this be toward the end, say, near the . . .

  include($path_to_legend . "legend.php");

. . . line after you've set the layers in the $map?

I might be missing something, but w/o moving the draw(), all I got was
whatever the .map file defined.

Again, thanks, and apologies if I've goofed.

Charlton

Hi,

Is there a known problem in using TrueType symbols in MapServer version
3.6.4?
The symbol definition in my mapfile  is given below. I tried to debug and
found that it is successfully able to recognize type ELLIPSE and VECTOR, but
when it comes to TRUETYPE, it stores 0 in the symbol->type
Any help on this will be appreciated.

Regards,

 SYMBOL
   NAME "circle"
   TYPE ELLIPSE
   POINTS 1 1 END
   FILLED TRUE
 END
 SYMBOL
   NAME "triangle"
   TYPE vector
   POINTS
     0 2
     1 0
     2 2
     0 2
   END
 END
 SYMBOL
   NAME "s1"
   TYPE TRUETYPE
   FONT arial
   FILLED true
   ANTIALIAS true
   CHARACTER "&#65;"
 END
