[Geomoose-users] LEGEND SYMBOLOGY

[Jim Dahl]

I will have to call the quest for symbology off till the workshop on the
16th.  I still cannot make it work.  I would be happy to write up a
summary of how to put all of the pieces together so they can be found in
one easy spot.  "How to symbolize the legend.'  
 
I have Named the Class.
The legend is ON.
 
The odd part is - it appears too easy.

	All,
	 
	I think someone already noted this, but . . .
	 
	You need to have a value for the NAME parameter inside the LAYER
definition for a Legend graphic to be generated.  If the NAME parameter
is not present or set to a value, there will be no legend graphic
created for that layer.

	If I remember correctly, there are two types of legends that
mapserver is capable of producing: HTML and Bitmap. I think (unless this
has changed recently) that GeoMOOSE is expecting an Bitmap legend. 


	This is the legend section used at the city: 


	  LEGEND 

	    STATUS ON 

	    KEYSIZE 20 12 

	    LABEL 

	      TYPE BITMAP 

	      COLOR 0 0 0 

	      SIZE MEDIUM 

	    END 

	  END

	I have the classes all defined to show up in the map
thematically, and the only thing that seems to make sense is the status
on in the mapfile.  It is ON.  For clarity, the statedemo comes with
only the County Boundaries in the legend, and I cannot see where it
tells mapserver how to turn on the legend other than status ON.  I used
the county map file as a template and the new layer show the symbology
in the legend so it must be in the map file, but where? 


	

	Thanks,

		That's all Mapserver Mapfiles...
		
		See if any of this documentation helps...

		The SYMBOL and NAME from the class are used to generate
the legend images.

		What seems like an easy question has taken a lot of time
for me to try figure out.  I want to know what file to edit to add the
symbology in my classes in the mapfile to the legend in the GeoMoose
display.  Any takers?
