[mapserver-users] complex symbol

[Matt McClelland]

Hi Sev

Yes you can.

If you can get a handle on this page
http://mapserver.org/mapfile/symbology/construction.html
You can do some pretty amazing things.

Here is what I did for cliffs
This example puts the detail to the right of the line, you can change it to
move it to the left side.

    CLASS
        EXPRESSION 'cliff'
        STYLE
          COLOR "#868f72"
          WIDTH 2
        END # STYLE
        STYLE
          COLOR "#868f72"
          SYMBOL "cliff"
          SIZE 20.0
          WIDTH 1
          #ANGLE 25
          GAP -20
        END # STYLE
    END



SYMBOL ## triangle option
  NAME "cliff"
  TYPE vector
  FILLED true
  POINTS
    0 5
    3 10
    6 5
    0 5
  END # POINTS
END # SYMBOL

SYMBOL ## line option (a little different from your, but you can do it
still)
  NAME "cliff"
  TYPE vector
  FILLED true
  POINTS
    0 5
    0 10
  END # POINTS
END # SYMBOL

Hope that helps

Matt  :)
