[mapserver-users] Difference in GD vs AGG PNG output -- seams in my shape files.

[Mark Deneen]

Steve,

I had just tried adding an outline before I received this message.  It
helps, but at the expense of my coastline.  This is, however, not a
terrible issue because you can still see the detail as you zoom in further.

Thanks,
Mark

I remember reading about it awhile back in discussions about  alternative algorithms and recall it being prominent with vertical edges. Have you tried setting an outline color to the same value as your fill color? That may help.

It doesn't do it for all of them, but I see it a lot, especially when the seams are not straight N/S or E/W.  I feel that it has something to do with AGG's antialiasing, but I've not been able to pin it down.
