Yes.  Andy is right.  If you're not using tiles then the image type can
be specified.  However, tile generation is currently hardcoded as PNG.

Thanks,
Trevor

I believe you can change the FORMAT= parameter to GIF or JPG in the url
of the RequestMapImage() function in ajaxmappane.templ.  This would
obviously be a global site change, however.

Hi,

is it possible to change the image type used by mapguide from PNG to
JPG?  I thought I saw this option in the system administration tool at
one point but now I can't find it.

Also, is it possible to use different image types?  I have a client who
wants to use tiles and cache imagery as jpg because png is too big, but
png is better for the rest of the app.

Cheers

Paul
