In a previous reply I got from Thomas Bonfort who asked much the same question as you are above, I asked "Are you referring to "Revision 8379: /trunk"?" and "I'm working with version 5.2.1 downloaded with the MS4W package." To be honest, I don't know if this is the latest or not and I don't really know what "trunk code" is :( I also wrote in the same email to Thomas, "If that's the case, I assume that I would have to download and compile the files then overwrite my existing files. This is my first bash at MapServer and it's a steep learnig curve!" Thomas hasn't replied as yet. So, I suppose my questions are still the same i.e. do I have to recompile using the latest code? Yikes! To give you some more info, I also created a square symbol to see how that rotated and it didn't show correctly at all. I've attached a couple of images showing an arrow symbol (not square) which, when rotated, appears to rotate on the bottom left corner. I could live with the symbol rotating on its centre by creating something with the arrow head in the middle and putting a couple of tiny dots in the font character so that it appears to be a large square - Like so (the following probably won't come out right but it will give you an idea): . <- . Not ideal as the dots would show but they would be tiny - as I say, I could live with that. It would be ideal if an anchor point could be specified but how that could be done with a ttf and scaling I do not know :( Many thanks, Regards, Donald -----Original Message----- From: Fawcett, David [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 05 January 2009 20:47 To: Donald Kerr; thomas bonfort Subject: RE: [mapserver-users] Rotated TrueType Point Symbols - Issue Donald, Are you saying that you are using the latest trunk code and you are still seeing this problem?

That doesn't seem to be the case. If I rotate a TTF symbol then it appears offset as per the images I posted to the group earlier.
