The behaviour of the GAP parameter has changed - before 6.2,
it specified some variation of the distance between the
bounding boxes of the symbols.  In 6.2 it specifies the
centre to centre distance between the symbols.

This change is described in the migration guide for 6.2,
which I can not find on mapserver.org/trunk (for some reason,
it is the 6.0 migration guide that is there).

thomas,

So are the differences between the two images attached to my OP
expected/intended when switching from GD to AGG rendering?

Thanks,
Rich

If you haven't specifically enabled GD (--enable-gd) then GIF will be
rendered with AGG in 6.2.

Steve -

Same OUTPUTFORMAT for both, and I don't even have an OUTPUTFORMAT
definition for GIF so I'm using whatever the defaults are. Might my
issue be related to GD versus AGG rendering? In other words, is the
default GIF rendering done with GD in 6.0 and AGG in 6.2?

Thanks,
Rich

I'm having a problem with the rendering of one of my layers with 6.2.
It's probably not a bug but rather that I'm doing something wrong. My
map file:

SYMBOL
    NAME 'solid'
    TYPE ellipse
    POINTS 1 1 END
    FILLED true
END

LAYER
    .....
    CLASS
      NAME "Zone X Shaded"
      EXPRESSION /^X, SHADED/
      STYLE
        SYMBOL 'solid'
        COLOR 128 128 128
        GAP 1
      END
    END
END

See the two attached images for the different renderings.
mapserv-6.0.gif is the desired rendering, mapserv-6.2.gif is the
rendering of the same map file with MapServer 6.2 beta2.

Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Rich

The MapServer Team is pleased to announce the release of MapServer
6.2.0 beta2. This is the second beta on our way to a final 6.2 release,
and contains several fixes that we encourage you to test. Our initially
planned date of a release beginning of August has slipped a bit, the
updated release plan that can be viewed at


https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/MapServer-6.2-Release-Plan

We however have only a few bugs left to resolve for our final release,
so we hope this beta phase will be over in the next couple of weeks.

The changelog since beta1 can be consulted here:


http://www.mapserver.org/en/development/changelog/changelog-6-2-0-beta2.html

The source for this release can be downloaded at:

     http://mapserver.org/download.html
or
     http://download.osgeo.org/mapserver/mapserver-6.2.0-beta2.tar.gz

The binary distributions listed in the download page should be updated
with binaries for the new 6.2.0-beta2 release in the next couple of days.

Once again we need your help to ensure a high quality product, so
please help out by testing your applications with this new code base.

Thanks! - The MapServer Team
