Hi, I guess that your symbol definition of square says filled false, it should be be filled true. Do another symbol. Next thing is that if You would like to do fancy borders symbols along a polygon you could set LAYER - TYPE to line. The syntax becomes easier. Last thing is to get the symbols to rotate with the line you should set gap to a negative value.
I made a small example to show this. Save this to line-with-squares.map and run it with: shp2img -m line-square-test.map -o line-square-test.png /Lars S. _________________ MAP SIZE 1000 1000 IMAGETYPE png24 EXTENT -30 -10 60 30 UNITS DD SYMBOL NAME "square_filled" TYPE VECTOR POINTS 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 END FILLED TRUE END LAYER # Simple polygon STATUS DEFAULT TYPE LINE FEATURE POINTS 5 25 25 20 45 20 35 15 50 0 0 5 5 25 END # Points END # Feature CLASS NAME "Symboltest" STYLE SYMBOL "square_filled" COLOR 255 0 0 SIZE 12 INITIALGAP 15 GAP -30 OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0 WIDTH 2.0 END #STYLE END # CLASS END # LAYER END # MAP --------------------------- -----Originalmeddelande----- Från: "Anton Bakker" <anton.bak...@geocat.net> Till: mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org Datum: 2017-10-11 17:45 Ämne: [mapserver-users] Polygon border with marker line symbol Hi list, I am trying to create the following symbology in MapServer, a marker line symbol on the border of a polygon, see the following ArcMap screenshot (https://i.imgur.com/9qN16tx.png). I tried the two following options, but could not manage to recreate the above symbology: 1. Renders with marker fill on polygon (https://i.imgur.com/sFFznbq.png): CLASS NAME "countries_europe" STYLE ANTIALIAS TRUE COLOR 204 204 204 END STYLE ANTIALIAS TRUE GAP 30 OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0 COLOR 255 0 0 SIZE 6 SYMBOL 'square' WIDTH 1.0 END END 2. Renders with marker line symbol on polygon border (https://i.imgur.com/Qwrw8wP.png), but the marker is missing the fill: CLASS NAME "countries_europe" STYLE ANTIALIAS TRUE COLOR 204 204 204 END STYLE ANTIALIAS TRUE GAP 30 OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0 SIZE 6 SYMBOL 'square' WIDTH 1.0 END END Does anyone know whether it is possible to achieve this symbology? It seems the only way to set a picture line symbol on the border of a polygon is to only set the outlinecolor, but then there is no way to set the fill color for the marker. I could not find any any information about this in the documentation or the mailing list.
