[mapserver-users] Raster layers with partial transparency

[Jason Beverage]

Hey Chris,

Thanks for the guess, setting transparent to 0 doesn't get rid of the issue,
just makes the background default to white with full opacity.

I found the issue, I was setting PROCESSING=BILINEAR which apparently
doesn't work well with partially transparent pixels.  Going back to nearest
seems to work fine.

Thanks!

Jason
