Hi,

I have recently been educated that the way to specify pixmap symbol sizes has changed in the 4.8 series. Previously, the SIZE setting would control the pixmap symbol height. In 4.8, the SIZE setting controls the largest pixmap dimension either the height or the width.

IMHO, this is bad behaviour. Is there rationale for this change? I am facing going thru all of my symbology and checking to make sure it is still correct when I upgrade to 4.8.

Moreover, I can't find mention of this change in HISTORY.txt . Did I miss a discussion of this change on this list?

I can live with this change, but think it is horribly confusing for new users and presents an un-needed complication when upgrading from 4.6 to 4.8
