[mapguide-users] Using Symbols strange behaviour... BUG?!

[Willem Schwarte]

We now installed Mapserver Enterprise on Linux (RedHat), and strangly
enough the symbols are shown correctly here?! Isn't that strange? I
packaged the map from the windows server and loaded it on the linux...

 

Also, the Linux version is about 3-4 times more quickly than the windows
server. The linux now has a PIII proc, while the windows has a Xeon.
When map loading time on Windows is about 15-20 seconds (depending on
the map of course) the same map on the Linux server loads in 8-13
seconds!!! 

 

I now have set up a map that loads in 5 seconds. Zooming and panning
takes about 2 seconds. And it has not failed to load yet! 

 

I only hope that we can still use access databases...

Okay, also some new info on this one.

 

Seems the rotation now goes as expected (symbolen_refpoint.jpg). Except
the reference point setting does not work as expected, no matter where I
set the point, the image always displays the same on the map.
(symbolen_setting.jpg for the settings).

 

The textlabel shows the correct reference point. I would have expected
the center of the symbol on the start of the textlabel.

Hi,

 

 

I am trying to use symbols (png) but it does not quite work as I would
like it to.

 

The normal.jpg is the map with symbols loaded normal, but when I change
the reference point in studio, the symbol stays at the same spot?

 

If I use a rotation angle (rotated.jpg) the symbol gets a black colored
part in it?

 

When importing rijdende-afzetting3.png in symbol library, the
transparency is lost? Is this not supported? 

 

Code_b.png is the original picture.

 

Willem
