[mapguide-users] PNG/PNG8 question regarding overlay transparency

That RFC has been implemented (that page wasn't updated properly) but
apparently PNG8 transparency isn't working for you.  I'd consider this
either a defect (if transparency is supposed to work for PNG8, which
would make sense given the use case for GETDYNAMICMAPOVERLAYIMAGE) or an
enhancement if it isn't.  Either way, the only way to be sure that
developers are aware of the issue is to post a ticket, preferably with
screen shots, URLs, etc that allow them to easily replicate.

I found this...

http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/wiki/MapGuideRfc38

...which includes the following line:

Include support for "PNG8" in the FORMAT parameter of
GETDYNAMICMAPOVERLAYIMAGE.

So, I'm resisting opening a new ticket.
