[mapguide-users] Printing Shortcomings Especially Legend Rendering

[Keith Campbell]

The quality of print output has been talked about before. I'm investigating
what options there are to improve this.
Perhaps the main issue is the legend output. With both the AJAX and DWF
viewer, the legend is rendered with layers set to not display in the legend
included, and Group headings included even if these are don't include any
visible layers. Besides looking rather messy, this behaviour also means that
a complex map with many layers/groups soon overflows the legend area.
The API only sems to have one method dealing with the legend,
RenderMapLegend, and this seems to be the call that produces the behaviour
already described. There doesn't seem to be any methods that allow greater
control.
I'd be interested to hear from others on how they may have overcome these
problems.
