Hi all,
I have an annotation layer, it contains a point (feature) and a string to
label this point.
Actually, the string is the title of the map and I want to change it
according to the currently displayed theme.
Is there any feature object which can be set by MapScript? The Class
Reference doesn't mention any. And, how do I change the color of the label?
I always get error messages saying that the property (both color and text)
don't exist or that the function setRGB() is undefined....???
Which objects do have these properties - do I nedd colorObjects?
styleObjects?? How do I create them?
Thanks,
Stefanie
