[Geomoose-users] configuring scaleLine.js

[Brent Fraser]

Bob,

   As Jim points out, one approach is to use a mapserver layer to create 
an empty map with just a scale bar.  Another approach is to look at 
GeoMoose v2.4 and see where the scale_line object is used in the 
JavaScript.  It basically just configures the OpenLayers scalebar.  The 
advantage of this approach is that it can support the ground distance 
instead of just the map distance by including

     if(CONFIGURATION.scale_line.enabled) {
         :            geodesic: true,

This difference can be significant depending on your map projection and 
where your are mapping.

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser
