Rép. : [MAPSERVER-USERS] PNG Image for symbol

[SIMON MERCIER]

Hi aloha
 
what is your output format image? ... maybe you can try PNG and insert the RGBA imagemode in your mapfile... Mapserver use a the PC256 imagemode by default...
 
    OUTPUTFORMAT
        NAME "png"
        MIMETYPE "image/png"
        DRIVER "GD/PNG"
        EXTENSION "png"
        IMAGEMODE RGBA
        TRANSPARENT ON
    END
 
good luck

Aloha,

I am trying to use a PNG image for a symbol on a point layer.  The problem I
am running into is that the background of the PNG image is filling in with a
greyish blue color.  The PNG image was created using photoshop and the
background was transparent.  I've placed the symbol in my symbol file and
the mapfile is referencing the symbol.
# Symbol File #
SYMBOL
  NAME 'arson2'
  TYPE PIXMAP
  IMAGE '/home/mapserv/proj/pmap/arson2.png'
  TRANSPARENT 0
END

# MapFile #
STYLE
  SYMBOL 'arson2'
  COLOR 0 0 0
  OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
END

Here is what the image is supposed to look like:

Has anyone experienced this issue?
