<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I would like to define symbols with GIF
images. In these images I would set white color as transparent.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The problem is that mapserver draws white parts as
fill white and not as transparent.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In symbol file I define as follows:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>#1007<BR>Symbol<BR>Name 'test'<BR>Type
PIXMAP<BR>Image 'c:\trash\test.gif'<BR>Transparent 0<BR>END</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I also tried to set Trasparent as 1 or 254 or 255,
but nothing changes.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anybody as any suggestions?...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Best regards</FONT></DIV>
