[mapserver-users] MapServer should not collapse geometries in same layer class

[Rahkonen Jukka (Tike)]

Hi,

If the aim is to see objects end, isn't GEOMTRANSFORM END just perfect for that?

http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/style.html
"end: produces the last point of the current feature geometry. When used with ANGLE AUTO, it can for instance be used to render arrowheads on line segments."
