AW: [Mapserver-users] scaling labels

Tue Nov 4 23:46:46 PST 2003

Hello  Hermann,
try an integer-value with SIZE - the keywords medium, small etc. only refer
to bitmap-Texts.
If this does not work either set LABELCACHE to ON.

Hi,
the use of SYMBOLSCALE,MINSIZE and MAXSIZE has no effect. I tryed to use
truetype Fonds but had problems with it. Here is a part of the map-file.
Maybe i did not understand the real meaning of SYMBOLSCALE,MINSIZE and
MAXSIZE.

LAYER
  NAME 'Beschriftung'
  GROUP 'Beschriftung'
  DATA 'D:/Inetpub/www100UMNMapServer/daten/Kalletal_1/shape/O_m_schrift'
  STATUS default
  TYPE ANNOTATION
  CLASSITEM 'Id'
  LABELITEM 'Z9pt'
  LABELCACHE OFF
#  LABELMAXSCALE 30000
  SYMBOLSCALE 5000
  CLASS # Beschr class
    COLOR -1 -1 -1
    LABEL
      POSITION UC
      OFFSET 0 3
      COLOR 0 0 0
#     TYPE TRUETYPE
#     FONT "arial"
      SIZE MEDIUM
      MINSIZE 5
      MAXSIZE 255
    END # end of label
  END # end of class object
END  # END OF LAYERFILE

Hello,

scaling of symbols and labels is done using SYMBOLSCALE on the layerobj
together with MINSIZE and MAXSIZE on styleobj/symbolobj and labelobj, to
limit dynamic sizing between these values.

Not 100% sure, but i don't think Truetype is required.

Cheers und Grüße,
Michael
