Hello Thomas,<br>
<br>
Thank you for your reply. I tried first with an image, but the output
didn't look so hot, so I created my own symbol by following this guide:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://umn.mapserver.ch/MapServer/en/sym_vector.htm">http://umn.mapserver.ch/MapServer/en/sym_vector.htm</a><br>
<br>
It still doesn't look very nice, but I will tune it from here.<br>
<br>
Thanks again,<br>
Adrian<br>

<pre wrap="">yes, you can definitely do that with an image symbol, although that
won't be very flexible if you want to change the width.
another solution would be with a vector symbol.
in both cases, you'll have to add a negative GAP to your symbol definition.
cheers,
thomas

Hello Thomas,
Thank you for your reply. I tried your solution and it draws a dashed line
paralel to my feature (on each side because the symbol is thicker). This is
nice, but I was wondering if it's possible to draw the lines at an angle
relative to my feature, thus created the "hatch" effect.
If this is not possible with a simple symbol - would it be possible with a
graphical symbol (picture)? And if yes, should I expect a high performance
penalty?
Thanks again,
Adrian

hi,
hatches only apply to polygon layers.
what you are probably looking for is the PATTERN keyword:
symbol
type simple
pattern 2 2 end
name "dashes"
end

Hello,
I'm trying to apply a hatch over a line segment, but it doesn't seem to
work.
My symbol definition is:
SYMBOL NAME 'hatch'
TYPE HATCH END
My layer definition is:
LAYER
TYPE LINE
...
CLASS
NAME "Test"
EXPRESSION ( "[flag]" eq "1")
STYLE SYMBOL 'hatch'
ANGLE 45 SIZE 3 #spacing between
lines
WIDTH 4 #width of each line color "#000000"
END style
color "#fff94d" width 2
antialias true end
END
END
The behavior is the following: mapserver draws the lines using the second
style (a yellowish color), but doesn't draw a hatch over my line.
I've tried with the hatch symbol after the style definition, but it still
doesn't work. The hatch worked for POLYGON layers just fine.
Is there any way I can use it for LINE data?
Thanks,
Adrian
P.S. I'm using mapserver 5.4.1
