[mapserver-users] Bug or User error? MINSIZE not working

[thomas bonfort]

Steve,
compared to the use-case referred to in the bug, I think things have
changed if you use the cairo or agg renderer as in those cases you
don't end up with a pixel being fully highlighted as gd does.
I wouldn't be against a configurable option to skip small geometries,
but would label this as a performance enhancement rather than a
quality one.

regards,
thomas
