[MAPSERVER-USERS] Setting offset on a symbol within STYLE

[Philippe Kruschitz]

Hi,

I'm trying to move my icon, which is a small flag, to fit correctly on my
map. I'm reading the geometry from a PostGIS table. Displaying the icon
works, except for the offset, which doesn't work at all. MS sytematically
puts the icon on the point (i.e. the point is in the "middle" of my icon). I
tried all possible values for OFFSET, negative/positive, but it just won't
move. I'm working on Mapserver 5.0.0. Did anyone know why this happens?
Maybe I'm doing something wrong? I read the documentation and found a thread
in the forum dealing with a similar problem, but it didn't help me much.

Here's an example taken from my mapfile (the icon is 22*31px):

CLASS
  EXPRESSION ([idstatus] eq 2)
  SIZE 24
  STYLE
    SYMBOL 'etc/icons/pos/ti_icon_tourende_pos.gif'
    OFFSET 11 15
  END # style
END #class


Thanks,

Philippe
