MapServer 5.0.0 released!

Thu Sep 27 14:12:23 EDT 2007

Thomas,

If I don't use the "aliased" symbol the legend key images show up fine,
even with MIN/MAXSCALE, as I have this on other layers without issue.
The example I gave you is for a few layers that I wanted to use the
"aliased" symbol and for those the legend key images don't show up.

Tim,

is the legend icon not appearing happening *only* when using the
"aliased" symbol ?
the mentionned bug would kick in also if you've defined a
minscale/maxscale on the layer level, but from your snippet this
doesn't seem to be the case.

thanks for helping out on this...
