[mapguide-users] point layers and dwf

[Jonathan Rizzo]

Hello List,

I have been having problems with creating DWF files in MapGuide for a long time (http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/mapguide-users/2012-September/028411.html), and I think I have finally narrowed down the cause.  I have a points layer that I styled with an image.  When I generate a dwf file with this layer turned off, the resulting DWF file opens just fine.  If I turn the layer on, the resulting dwf file crashes Design Review.

The images that I used to stylize this layer are all 32 bit png files with transparent backgrounds.  If doesn't matter which image I use - they all seem to cause the problem.  If I replace the stylization of this layer with one of the basic symbols that ships with MGOS, the resulting dwf file opens just fine in design review.

I guess my first question would be whether anybody else has done this successfully (ie: style a point layer with a 32 bit, transparent background png and then generated a dwf using the mapguide API).  I don't know if this is a Design Review issue or a MapGuide issue, but I was hoping that someone on this list can guide me to the next step and/or help me verify what I am seeing.

Regards,

Jon
