Hi Pedro,

Actually I tried yesterday with that same world countries mapfile that was used in the map images for the examples in the documentation, and I was unsuccessful for your exact requirements. (but I did notice a mistake on that documentation page and fixed it yesterday!) So your question helped improve the documentation, but I am sorry to report that I don't believe it is possible with MapServer.

Hi Carlos,

Using C-style formatting string, I can only use %g, %f, etc., but it is
applied to Degrees component.

What I need is something like "%gº %3.2f", in whitch %gº is for the
Degrees, and %3.2f for the decimal Minutes.

Unfortunately, LABELFORMAT "DDMM" gives only the integer part of Degrees
and Minutes.

Thank you very much.

Best regards,
Pedro

    Well, current Mapserver documentation guide says the following:

    LABELFORMAT [DD|DDMM|DDMMSS|C format string]

        Format of the label. “DD” for degrees, “DDMM” for degrees
        minutes, and “DDMMSS” for degrees, minutes, seconds. *A C-style
        formatting string is also allowed, such as “%g°” to show decimal
        degrees with a degree symbol. The default is decimal display of
        whatever SRS you’re rendering the GRID with.*

    This sounds like that is what you are looking for.

    Cheers

    minutes format

    Hi all,

    I would like to use a GRID [0], but in degrees decimal minutes
    LABELFORMAT. Something like:
    40 46.817 -7 4.327

    Is this somehow possible in actual Mapserver version?

    Thank you very much!

    Best regards,
    Pedro Venâncio
