[mapserver-users] Symbols.

[Armando Scalise]

Hi.

How shpould symbols size be defined in MS?  Vector type symbols appear as
little tiny dots in my map.  How can I change their display size?

Here is my symbol defintion:

Symbol
	Name 'triangle'
	Type VECTOR
	Filled true
	Points
	 0 1
	 .5 0
	 1 1
	 0 1
	END
END


And this is the the layer definition:

LAYER #
Centers --------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------Centers
  NAME Centers
  TYPE point
  DATA "c:\MapServerData\Testing\centers2"
  STATUS ON
  CLASSITEM 'name'
  CLASS
    NAME "Centers"
    COLOR 0 0 0
    SYMBOL "triangle"
  END
END

Hello,

can any body tell me whether it is possible to identify a certain object

like a town on a map while crossing over it with the mouse?

And if it is possible, how does it work? Has it to be defined in
the shapefiles or has it something to do with my templatefile?

Hope to hear from you mapservers!

Thanks and cheers,

Sven
