[mapserver-users] How do I make a shapefile polygon thicker within UMN Mapserver

[Dean Gadoury]

I don't think you can change the thickness of  a polygon's outline. You may
have to draw the layer twice, once as TYPE POLYGON, then again ad TYPE LINE.
MapServer actually allows you to draw polygon features as lines. With line
layers you can change the thickness of features.

Your second layer could be done like this:

LAYER
  NAME stlouisxdrive
  GROUP "gv:stlouisxdrive"
  PROJECTION
   "init=epsg:26915"
  END

  TYPE LINE

  DATA "C:/TEMP/64Resolution"

  STATUS ON
        CLASS
          STYLE
COLOR 255 0 0
        END
 END
