[mapserver-users] Polygon symbols

[Richard Greenwood]

I asked the same question and Sam Paske offered the following answer, which 
works great. Set SYMBOL for the desired hatch pattern and SIZE for the 
desired spacing.

I have gotten transparent fills to work on one of my map sites:
http://www.kapurgis.com/agsmaps/t-cdrbrg/zoning_init.html
I used the ellipse symbol as follows to set up a layer class:
CLASS
    NAME "A-1"
    EXPRESSION 'A-1'
    OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
    SYMBOL 1
    SIZE 1
    COLOR 128 225 185
END
