Stefano,

You need to provide more info.  Are you displaying your layers in
lat/lon or is it being reprojected?  Are you using shapefiles or some
other vector format?  I'm asking these questions to establish a context
to your problem.  If you are using shapefiles, it could be that your
data has different "regions"...  if this is the case, I don't know how
to fix it other than running shapearc and regionpoly in arc/info before
exporting it as shapefile again.  Anyway, that's a wild guess but I've
seen it happen to a lot of people.

If it is projection issues, you'll need to tell us more about your
projection.

Subject: [mapserver-users] MAP EXTENT

I have yet presented this problem but nobody answered me, please:

say me if this is a too stupid question ...

I have a map (North Italy) and I'm trying to display it with Mapserver.
The map is displayed but only a "fragment" of the map appear on the
screen.
If I want to see the remainder of the map I have to use the pan
function.

How can I do in orther to view all the map?

This is my map file (a fragment):

NAME DEMO
STATUS ON
SIZE 600 600
EXTENT 6.174567 42.975424 14.815678 47.143435

UNITS DD
SHAPEPATH "data"
IMAGECOLOR 255 255 255
SYMBOLSET "/Program Files/Apache
Group/Apache/htdocs/Nord/symbols/symbol.sym"
FONTSET "/WINNT/Fonts/fonts.list"

If I try to modify the EXTENT nothing happen, another fragment of the
map is
displayed (but not the entire map)

Somebody can help me? I hope so ......


Thanks,

Stefano B.
