Polygon outline width

[Gilles Bassière]

Hi Flavio

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, it has no effect on my map. I tried 
to set this value for OUTLINE in the CLASS element, then in the STYLE 
element but rivers still appear very thick on my map when the scale in 
large... Actually, the same map is produced with OUTLINE -1 0 0 or 
without. =(

As explained in the FAQ, I tried to set up a circle symbol but it seems 
to work only for true lines, not for polygon outlines.

Any other idea ?
