[mapserver-dev] Rendering a circle with the specified size as the default symbol

[thomas bonfort]

Tamas,
those kind of inconsistencies (as there are quite a few others) will
hopefully be a thing of the past once we switch to the vtable
rendering architecture. I'd favor leaving things as they are for 5.4
and wait for 6.0 for introducing and documenting these changes.

best regards,
thomas
