[Geomoose-users] Need label opacity independent of vector layer

[Brent Fraser]

I don't think so...

One entry in the mapbook (so only one GM "layer" with a checkbox):

<map title="Parcels" default="true">
     <file>./Parcels.map</file>
</map

but two LAYERs in the Parcels.map file, one with no NAME entry in the CLASS so 
its no included in the mapserver-generated legend.
