Chris, If you are in tile mode, I assume that you probably don't want an embedded legend on each tile.
Have you thought about doing a separate call/request/object for the legend? If you were doing this via CGI, I would recommend doing a separate mode=legend request. David.

After quite a while thinking I could not produce a legend I have realised that the legend is actually there, just off the edge of my map. Now I see that although my map file specifies a map size of 640 x 480 pixels, if in single tile mode the map image being produced is actually 1110 x 660 pixels. Alternatively with multiple tiles I get 12 tiles of 250 x 250 pixels which is 1024 x 768 pixels. It seems that the size parameter in the map file is being ignored (even setting the values to 0 0 or omitting the SIZE parameter altogether makes no difference). MAXSIZE doesn't seem to help either. I can't find a way to get the image size that I want, can anyone help?

Recent examples are hard to find but I found the following dating from 2002 which seemed simple enough: $legend = $map->legend; $legend->set(width,40); $legend->set(height,100); $legend->imagecolor->setRGB(240,220,200); # tan $legend->outlinecolor->setRGB(1,1,1); # black $legend->set(status, MS_EMBED); $legend->set(position, MS_UL); // SET LEGEND LABEL PROPERTIES $lg_label = $legend->label; $lg_label->set(font, "arial"); $lg_label->set(type, MS_TRUETYPE); $lg_label->set(size, 10); $lg_label->set(minsize, 6); $lg_label->set(maxsize, 12); $lg_label->color->setRGB(100,100,100); $legend->set(postlabelcache, MS_TRUE); // DRAW LEGEND $legendImage=$map->drawLegend(); Unfortunately this produces no output. Can anyone give me any clues why? Chris
