[mapserver-users] symbology rotation

[Fawcett, David]

You are using a very old version of MapSever.  Are you sure that 4.1 supports symbology rotation?  I can't remember when that feature was added.  
 
I suggest upgrading to a more recent version of MapServer.

	Hi list (sorry if it is reposted - I´m not sure, if the first mail got around)

	 

	Currently I´m using mapserver 4.10 to display tab-files. Due to the fact, that I´m unable to get mapserver to display the right symbol (I use my own true type font) 

	I´ve mapped the neseccary symbols like this

	 

	SYMBOL

	  NAME "mysymbL" 

	  TYPE TRUETYPE

	  FONT mytruetype

	  FILLED true

	  ANTIALIAS true

	  CHARACTER "L"

	END

	 

	Then  in the different layer definitions I do like this:

	LAYER

	  NAME Water 

	  

	  TYPE POINT

	  STATUS OFF

	  CONNECTIONTYPE OGR                   

	  CONNECTION "/.../water.tab"

	  METADATA

	     "themename" "Water"

	  END

	    

	  TOLERANCEUNITS meters

	  TOLERANCE 4

	  TEMPLATE "dummy.html"  

	 

	    CLASSITEM "W_TYPE"

	    CLASS   

	       EXPRESSION "waterL" 

	       COLOR 0 0 255 

	       SYMBOL "mysymbL" 

	       SIZE 1

	    END

	END

	 

	My problem is that MapServer ignores the symbology angle used in the tab file. Does anyone have any suggestion to this problem

	 

	TIA

	Kaare
