Thanks, looks like it. In QGIS setting color and opacity plus stroke does only work if the *.svg is edited to allow by setting variables such as these below: style="fill:param(fill) #000000;fill-opacity:1;stroke:param(outline) #000000;stroke-width:param(stroke-width) 1;fill-opacity:param(fill-opacity) 1;stroke-opacity:param(outline-opacity) " I guess a simple approach could be to allow setting colors for svgs in MapServer if the svg has the style color set to fill="currentColor" in order to be styled
For now seems that MapServer vector symbols seem to be the way to go Cheers Karsten _____ From: Seth G [mailto:se...@geographika.co.uk] Sent: Thursday, March 28, 2024 00:06 To: karsten; MapServer Users Subject: Re: [MapServer-users] setting COLOR of SVG symbol ? Hi, Unfortunately, I don't think this is currently possible, based on a previous reply from Steve Lime [1]: > I don't believe you can muck with the SVG color since SVG can carry multiple elements and colors. That complexity doesn't map very well to a single color value in a styleObj. It's probably best to consider SVG as immutable, same as an image symbol. You can use truetype fonts (or vector symbols) if you want something scaleable where you can alter color. I guess if it works in QGIS then it should be possible to implement this in the MapServer codebase too.

The svgs I am using can be styled in QGIS (have edited to allow). What is the status in MapServer should setting the color via a style work ? I had no luck setting the COLOR on the symbol so far Here is my style STYLE SYMBOL "electric_point" SIZE 20 COLOR 255 0 0 END # STYLE symbol SYMBOL NAME 'electric_point' TYPE svg image 'symbols/annotation/electric.svg' END So far this renders black symbols , any ideas how to fix this ?
