Hi folks,
=20
Quick question from a newbie: is there a way to change the
size/intensity of the highlighting of query results? In my map file =
I=92ve
defined a Querymap layer, set to hilite in a bright yellow colour, but
I=92ve noticed that for polygons layers where I=92ve only defined an
Outlinecolor and no fill color, only a narrow outline gets highlighted,
not the feature itself. As a result you have to squint at the screen to
determine what features are actually =93highlighted=94. I could change =
my
map file so that all polygon layers are filled, but this seems extreme.
Is there an other way to highlight the whole feature, or change the
highlight outline to a thicker line?
=20
Thanks.
