[Mapserver-users] Mapserver 401: Reference image bounding box

[Julien, Heryk]

Hi to all,
Thanks for your replies,
I found a solution to the bug but I don't understand why it worked!
I opened my "8 bit indexed gif" reference image in Corel Photo-Paint and
selected the option "optimize for web" and saved it in the same format (8
bit indexed gif). The new image works!
I see a bounding box!

Anyone understands what is going on?

Furthermore, does the reference map and main map ratio have to be identical
in order for the reference image to work correctly? My main map is 400X400
pix (1:1) while my reference map is 175X117 pix (1.5:1).

Thanks again

What size is your map?  Does the map aspect ratio match 175/117?
