[mapserver-users] Symbol not showing up in MapServer 6.0.0-beta1 release

[thomas bonfort]

Phil,

what kind of symbology are you trying to obtain. I suspect you're
aiming for a thick line, which now does not require the use of a
symbol, but rather:

style
 width 20
 color 0 0 255
end

regards,
thomas

Below is a simple map file that has a single diagonal line as a feature and two styles; the first should draw a 25-pixel circle, the second a single-pixel line; similar map files worked under 5.6.3. I do not know if this worked under 5.7 circa December 15, 2010.
