[mapserver-users] Symbol size in meters, width in pixels units

Hi,

I need to make maps showing proportional symbols (the size depends on
an attribute, and is expressed in meters).
But I need the outline width to be constant across resolutions, so I
need to specify it in pixels.

Since both properties have to be expressed in the same LAYER's
sizeunits (whether meters or pixels), it seems impossible.
Of course I need AGG'rendering (PNG & SVG). I have notice that GD
would draw 1px outline anyway.
Is there a solution?

Thanks,

JF Gigand
