[mapserver-users] MapScript scalebar and reference map

[Lowell Filak]

What do you mean by "add a scalebar and reference map"?
If you mean render them in mapscript when the definition exists in the mapfile:

$rimg = $rmap->drawScalebar();
$rimg->saveImage("../html$image_name",$mapscript::MS_PNG,$rmap->{transparent},$rmap->{interlace},0);

$rimg = $rmap->drawReferenceMap();
$rimg->saveImage("../html/tmp/references/$hr$min$sec$spid.png",$mapscript::MS_PNG,$rmap->{transparent},$rmap->{interlace},0);
