Hi Sarah,

I have had problems with circle symbols with sizeunit meters in the past.  So I presented some of my alternative solutions i a talk at FOSS4G last year.  Here is a link to the presentation: https://github.com/LarsSchy/Mapserver-Circles/blob/main/MapServer-Circles.pdf

The video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlagaZLxekg

Some example code can be found at: https://github.com/LarsSchy/Mapserver-Circles.

I do agree that there exists some problem with circle symbols with size unit meters, that I really can't explain

Have fun!

Hallo,

I configured a point layer with "circle" symbol and sizeunits meters. The circles should have the same size in real world units (meter) for all zoom levels, for example 100 m.

This works for most zoom levels, but when I zoom in closely the circles get smaller (< 100 m).

I don't have configured any maxsize or minsize for the layer.

How can I configure the layer to have the same size in meters for all zoom levels? Like it behaves with polygons?

My layer definition in the mapfile: https://pastebin.com/JVWBvScP <https://pastebin.com/JVWBvScP>

Example screenshots of the layer (as WMS in QGIS):

Circle with correct size (100 m), same as square: https://pasteboard.co/VWmur23PHiir.jpg <https://pasteboard.co/VWmur23PHiir.jpg>

Circle smaller than 100 m (and smaller than square): https://pasteboard.co/SFJZMJgp4j8k.jpg <https://pasteboard.co/SFJZMJgp4j8k.jpg>

Thanks

Sarah
