[postgis-users] View area

[Sean M. Montague]

Strk, I really appreciate your help.  My geometries return valid, 't'.
I've imported a new shape file, Colorado counties in StatePlane NAD83.
Below is the full SQL statement I'm usisg.  I can send you the SQL file
for importing the table or the shape file itself if it'll help.

SELECT AsSVG(intersection(the_geom, setSRID('BOX3D(2705381 1688914,
2915183 1534212)'::box3d, 2332)),0,8) 
AS the_geom 
FROM counties 
WHERE the_geom && setSRID('BOX3D(2705381 1688914, 2915183
1534212)'::box3d, 2332);

Are you input geometries valid - check isvalid() ?
Can you reproduce the *bug* with a single, full contained
( and possibly small ) sql script so I can take a look at it ?
