Shapefile layer filter to sort objects ?

[Laurent Jégou]

Hi list,

I'm using the SIZEITEM parameter of the STYLE object to generate 
proportional symbols based on attributes values. It's working nicely 
since i discovered that the SYMBOLSCALE parameter of the LAYER object 
must be present. I'm now wondering if there's a way to sort the symbols 
objects in decreasing order, to have the small ones drawn above the big 
ones. With a database geometry source i can use a FILTER parameter, but 
with a shapefile source ?

Thanks for your help,

Laurent
