Hi, Looks like there is no LABELITEM set on layer descriptions. Document "An introduction to MapServer" (http://www.mapserver.org/introduction.html) does mention LABELITEM but that part of text is messy. Perhaps it should be reviewed.

Hello, I installed HostGIS, and used the mapserver example1 as my template. My data is in an shp file. The layer with all the tracks (roads) is displaying correctly. What I am unable to do is display the road/track names on top. This is my own shp file, the tracks have several features, one called "road_name". I have googled, and read most of the related stuff I could get my hands on, and tried several 'ways' without luck. I am pasting my cleaned up mapfile below (in the real file, my extent has the actual lat/long values). I would appreciate any help or suggestions on how to display the road name field. (I am using the Windows versions of Quantum GIS and GPS TrackMaker to look at those fields in the shapefile). Thanks. ============== my Mapfile =========================== MAP NAME mytown SHAPEPATH /var/www/manual/examples/mytown/data SIZE 700 500 UNITS dd EXTENT x1 y1 x2 y2 PROJECTION 'proj=longlat' 'ellps=WGS84' 'datum=WGS84' 'no_defs' '' END IMAGECOLOR 255 255 255 IMAGEQUALITY 95 IMAGETYPE PNG OUTPUTFORMAT NAME "png24" MIMETYPE "image/png" DRIVER "AGG/PNG" EXTENSION "png" IMAGEMODE "RGBA" TRANSPARENT off END FONTSET "../fonts/fonts.list" WEB MINSCALE 1 MAXSCALE 100000 IMAGEPATH "/maps/images.tmp/" IMAGEURL "/images.tmp/" # WMS server settings METADATA 'wms_title' 'mytown' 'wms_onlineresource' 'http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=wms.map&;' 'wms_srs' 'EPSG:4326' END END REFERENCE STATUS ON IMAGE refmap.png SIZE 240 157 EXTENT x1 y1 x2 y2 COLOR -1 -1 -1 OUTLINECOLOR 255 0 0 END LEGEND IMAGECOLOR 255 255 255 KEYSIZE 12 12 LABEL TYPE truetype FONT "LondonTube" SIZE 9 COLOR 0 0 0 END STATUS embed POSITION ul END SCALEBAR STATUS embed TRANSPARENT off INTERVALS 4 SIZE 200 3 UNITS kilometers COLOR 250 250 250 OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0 BACKGROUNDCOLOR 100 100 100 STYLE 0 POSTLABELCACHE true LABEL COLOR 0 0 90 #OUTLINECOLOR 200 200 200 SIZE small END # Label END # Reference # # Start of layer definitions # ############################################################################### # Road tracks LAYER NAME 'mytown' TYPE LINE DATA '/var/www/manual/examples/mytown/data/mytown.shp' METADATA 'wms_title' 'mytown' 'gml_include_items' 'all' END DUMP TRUE STATUS DEFAULT TRANSPARENCY 80 PROJECTION 'proj=longlat' 'ellps=WGS84' 'datum=WGS84' 'no_defs' '' END CLASS STYLE COLOR 102 0 0 SIZE 2 SYMBOL "line_solid" END STYLE COLOR 204 51 51 SIZE 1 SYMBOL "line_solid" END LABEL TYPE truetype FONT "PerspectiveBlack" SIZE 11 END END END # layer road tracks ############################################################################### # # LINE TYPES # SYMBOL NAME "line_solid" TYPE ellipse POINTS 1 1 END FILLED true END END # end of mapfile ================================================================= -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/mapfile%3A-displaying-a-feature-from-a-shapefile.-tp2213523p2213523.html Sent from the Mapserver - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
