[mapserver-users] symbology rotation

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
