Adding dynamic points; clicking on point not working

[Hoeven, Maarten van der]

Dear Bart,

thank you for your response.

Yes, I did. It is not mentioned anymore (testing what will help) in my mapfile below, but I had it for some reasonably time. But that didnt help...

Anymore clues/tips?

Regards,
Maarten

Did you try setting a TOLERANCE on your LAYER?

eg:

TOLERANCEUNITS PIXELS
TOLERANCE 3

Best regards,
Bart
