[OpenLayers-Users] OpenLayer map drawing symbols... are there others?

[Arnd Wippermann]

Hi,

You can create your own symbols

http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/graphic-name.html

OpenLayers.Renderer.symbol.lightning = [0,0, 4,2, 6,0, 10,5, 6,3, 4,5, 0,0];
OpenLayers.Renderer.symbol.rectangle = [0,0, 10,0, 10,4, 0,4, 0,0];

Or you use an image as symbol.

Betreff: [OpenLayers-Users] OpenLayer map drawing symbols... are there

Hello,

I am looking at the symbols that can be drawn on the map and have used one
of the OL examples to create symbols via:

var style = createSymbolStyle(SELECTED_SYMBOL_TYPE,
		                      frm.symbol_stroke_color.value,
		                      frm.symbol_fill_color.value,
		                      frm.symbol_radius.value,
		                      frm.symbol_stroke_width.value,
		                      frm.symbol_rotation.value,
		                      frm.symbol_opacity.value);

where the SELECTED_SYMBOL_TYPE = star, cross, x, triangle, square, or
circle.

Our customer wants to have a shape symbol palette, such as what you might
find in Powerpoint, for example.  My question is whether the OL
createSymbolStyle function knows about other symbols than I referenced
above, or what else might be done to add more symbols options.

Any thoughts?

Thanks - Peter
