[mapserver-users] Rotating map makes layer disappear

[Matthias Buchs]

Hi David,

Thanks for answering! I tried both of your suggestions, but 
unfortunately neither works :(. Zooming-in the generated map (a pdf file 
actually) revealed that MapServer paints some pixels at the right 
places. They are nearly invisible in the chosen scale (60) though.
So the situation is that as long as no rotation is set, everything works 
fine. As soon as any rotation is set (even 0.01°!) all layers are drawn 
correctly, except the one I mentioned. The only difference that I can 
see between the layers is that this one contains the style information 
in the data source. A very strange behavior...

Regards Matthias
