<div class="MsoNormal">On second thought setting the TYPE to LINE does not fit my usecase exactly. I would like to achieve the following for a polygon layer: <a href="https://i.imgur.com/3stwHw4.png">https://i.imgur.com/3stwHw4.png</a> . So the two requirements for the symbology are:<o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div>
<div class="MsoNormal">- Marker line symbol on border<o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div>
<div class="MsoNormal">- Polygon fill<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">With setting the type to line I can only achieve the marker line symbol, but I cannot specify a fill: <a href="https://i.imgur.com/tk6vJ4b.png">https://i.imgur.com/tk6vJ4b.png</a> . Do you know if there is a way of achieving this effect? <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">Hi,<br />
<br />
I guess that your symbol definition of square says filled false, it should be be filled true. Do another symbol.<br />
Next thing is that if You would like to do fancy borders symbols along a polygon you could set LAYER - TYPE to line.<br />
The syntax becomes easier. Last thing is to get the symbols to rotate with the line you should set gap to a negative value.<br />
<br />
I made a small example to show this. Save this to line-with-squares.map and run it with:<br />
shp2img -m line-square-test.map -o line-square-test.png<br />
