Hello Steve,
what ist the current status concerning that problem?
I´ve experienced the following problems (ms4w, mapserver 4.10.0) creating a
road sign renderer where I want to align road signs along the street path:
- As described in the previous posts the transparency does not work
correctly when the symbols are rotated. My experience is that the resulting
image is transparent, but overlapping symbols are excluding each other (see
attachment and view roadsigns_rotated.png in a viewer that is able to
display transparency)
- The transparency works fine when the symbols are not rotated using png
export, but when using jpeg output the transparency is gone.

I really hope there is a solution for that ...

Best regards
Peter
