[mapserver-users] PHP mapscript createLegendIcon doesn't follow style maxscaledenom

[Paul Moen]

In case anyone else wants the createLegendIcon to return the image based what would be drawn at the current mapscale, here is what I did.

In the mapserver 7.0.4 source code, mapscript/php/mapscript_i.c line 1116  has scale_independant hard coded to MS_TRUE.  I changed it to MS_FALSE, recompiled and have the behavior that I was expecting.  

Thanks,

I am finding that createLegendIcon returns a different legend item than what is used in the map output when using scaledenom in the style.
 
Below is a test script that produces what I am talking about. 
 
The script will create 4 images.
 
map_scale_873.png -> map->draw output with a 873 scaledenom
map_scale_2618.png -> map->draw with a 873 scaledenom
legimg_scale_873.png -> createLegendIcon output with a 873 scaledenom
legimg_scale_2618.png -> createLegendIcon output with a 873 scaledenom
 
 
I was expecting that the legend image at the 873 scale, legimg_scale_873.png would match the map output, map_scale_873.png.  Can anyone see a problem, is this a bug, or is this expected behavior?
