Creating vector symbols:
Unless you have a formulae, you will have to measure.
In 6.2, precise placement of symbols is easy using SYMBOL
ANCHORPOINT. It is therefore possible to split a complex
symbol into more manageable parts (for instance some parts
using lines and some parts using polygons), and then combine
them using STYLEs.

Hello Håvard,
Thanks for your answer, I tested yesterday in my 5.6 version and it also works well, the
problem is that after changing the values during many hours I couldn't set properly the
right value to get that "opened v", so I think just doing random changes here
and there won't help me to draw well this figure. I was thinking about some tips to draw
this image, I think first I should take a piece of paper and draw this image and then
take the measurements from it, is this the right, easy way to do it? those values in
v-poly were calculated in this way?

Dear Gary,
The v-poly symbol should be OK (I just tested it with
6.2 and 5.6.6). If you want an open V, you should
use only outlinecolor:
STYLE
SYMBOL "v-poly"
SIZE 30
OUTLINECOLOR 0 255 0
END # STYLE
