symbols offset

[Gernot Katzlberger]

Hi list,
I have two questions about the symbols in mapserver:

1. I have a point file and want to place symbols with an offset on the
points (like drawn in the attachment). Can I change the position of the
symbol like the offset in the label object?

2. I have a symbol file with 3000 different pixmap-symbols and one layer
with 3000 classes in the mapfile. Each class has one symbol defined. I also
changed the MS_MAXCLASS and the MS_MAXSYMBOLS in the map.h/mapsymbol.h file.
Now Mapserver renders 700 classes in 1 second. With more than 700 classes
Mapserver crashed. Is there another MS_MAX-SOMETHING to define?

Thanks,
Gernot
