Hi list,

Is the recommended way to create a diagonal point fill such as http://www.mapserver.org/_images/diagonal-area-symbol.png to use a pixmap fill? This doesn't allow configuring size and color through STYLEs. The page at http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/symbology/construction.html provides a vector symbol (coords below), but it is long/complex (with a central circle and a quarter in each corner), and isn't easy to change spacing between the points. The circle edges are also slightly jagged.

SYMBOL
  NAME "diag_dots"
  TYPE vector
  FILLED true
