[mapguide-users] Point (symbol) not scaling larger when zooming in

[Dave Wilson]

You can style the point with either Device space or Map space. Device space is fixed and the default. Map space resizes according to the units you specify. Remember that when using Map space if you set your point to be 1 meter wide (when zoomed in close) it will be invisible at large scales. You will likely have to implement scale ranges and leave your points as Devise space until a certain scale is reached then change to Map space.

Regards,
Dave

Subject: [mapguide-users] Point (symbol) not scaling larger when zooming in


I have provided 2 screen shots.
One at scale 1:29471 showing the green triangle as my point symbol.
One at scale 1:2587 showing the green triangle at the same size. I would
expect this green triangle to scale bigger as I zoom in closer as it would
in other GIS viewers.

I see in Maestro that I can add multiple layer styles setting the scale
range and changing the symbol to be larger for each scale range, but I just
want to make sure there is no other options. 

I don't understand why the line layer zooms correctly (when zooming in, the
line scales bigger) and the point layer doesn't scale.
