[Mapserver-users] possible cause of rendering problems

[bartvde at xs4all.nl]

Hi list,

we had some rendering problems in which we would have around 10 classes in
a LAYER. Not all of the polygon outlines would be drawn.

The problem was caused by using the following CLASS syntax:

        CLASS
            EXPRESSION /654[23]/
            NAME "dok"
            COLOR 255 255 255
            STYLE
                SYMBOL 0
                OUTLINECOLOR 255 0 0
                SIZE 2
          END
        END

So the COLOR was outside the STYLE object.

When we moved the COLOR into the STYLE object, everything worked as expected.

So bottom line: never mingle the old way of doing symbolization with the
new STYLE way of doing it.

Best regards,
Bart
