[Mapserver-users] Outlinecolor of a MS_LAYER_LINE Type

[woodbri at swoodbridge.com]

Daniel,

Does not look like any of the OVERLAY* attributes of the CLASS object 
are documented in the PHP/Mapscript. Can you tell Nicol if they are 
supported in the code?

Nicol,

You might try to just set them in mapscript like any other object 
attribute:

$classObj->set("OVERLAYCOLOR", $colorObj);
$classObj->set("OVERLAYSIZE", 3);

It may just work and not be documented.
