Jeff, should this be considered a bug? --Steve ________________________________________ From: mapserver-users [[email protected]] on behalf of Jeff McKenna [[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, March 08, 2017 4:55 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [mapserver-users] Mapserver GRID in degrees decimal minutes format
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. -jeff -- Jeff McKenna MapServer Consulting and Training Services http://www.gatewaygeomatics.com/ On 2017-03-08 6:42 PM, Pedro Venâncio wrote: > 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 > > > > 2017-03-08 2:46 GMT+00:00 Carlos Ruiz <[email protected] > <mailto:[email protected]>>: > > 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.
