Maarten,
have a look here:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc46/cartographic-symbols.html
Look at:
Complex symbols, especially signatur4b en signatur5b.

David,
Thank you for your reply. I understand what you are saying. But [:)], I
want to combine these two. I want to increase/decrease the diameter of
the circle, *AND* I want to make the line thicker.
Is this possible?
Regards,
Maarten

Maarten,
When you apply this symbol to a layer of TYPE LINE, increasing the size
parameter will make the line thicker. If, as in your example, it is
applied to a point layer, increasing size will increase the diameter of
the circle.

Yes, I worked with the size-parameter. But if my understanding is
correct, this is the size of the symbol itself, and not the line
thickness when plotting a 'not-filled' circle.
As an example, see the attchment. In Switzerland, there are two blue
'empty circles', with size 17. The size is correct, only I want to
'thicken' the small blue line.
Thanks!

Use in your CLASS the following (5 is the width in pixels):
CLASS
..
STYLE
SYMBOL "emptycircle"
SIZE 5
END
..
END

Hi list,
I am using a symbol file, with (part of) the symbol definition below.
This is working okay, except the line thickness of this circle is (only)
1 pixel.
Is there a way to make the line thickness more than 1?
SYMBOL
Name 'emptycircle'
TYPE ELLIPSE
FILLED FALSE
POINTS 1 1 END
Regards,
Maarten
