I think this can be solved with fonts. So create your own font with the symbols. But i havn't tested it.<br><br>Roy Braam<br>B3partners BV<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(0, 0, 255); padding-left: 5px; margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 0px;"><hr><b>From:</b> Richard Duivenvoorde [mailto:rdmailings@DUIF.NET]<br><b>To:</b> MAPSERVER-USERS@LISTS.UMN.EDU<br><b>Sent:</b> Thu, 28 Jun 2007 20:55:28 +0200<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] transparency of rotated GIF files<br><br>Hi Roy,<br>
<br>
I've been fiddling with this also, but was not successfull. I found that <br>
it's only possible to rotate 90, 180 and 270 degree's WITH transparency, <br>
but only with png24 (not png8), all other degrees will result in some <br>
semitransparent block around the symbol.<br>
Somebody suggested problems with the underlying gdlib at that time?<br>
<br>
If you (or somebody else) manage(s) to get this working: please let <br>
me/us know.<br>
<br>
for example see:<br>
