[Mapserver-dev] Draw line with antialias

[Steve Lime]

Send your mapfile definition. You can tell if it's working by the time
it takes to generate a
map. Antialiasing is SLOOOOWWWW.

There are also some caveats to the GD support- these are GD issues, not
MapServer issues.
For example, styled symbols (i.e. dashes) cannot be antialiased, nor
can brushed lines. Overall
I was pretty disappointed with the support as it sits now. I'm sure it
will bet better over time.

It doesn't work :-(...I use a shapefile layer only with lines...the
problem
can be in SYMBOL definition?
