Hi, Jacob,
you mean like this:
*****output format:
OUTPUTFORMAT
NAME "PNG24"
MIMETYPE "image/PNG"
DRIVER "GD/PNG"
EXTENSION "PNG"
IMAGEMODE RGBA
#TRANSPARENT ON
#TRANSPARENCY ALPHA
END
NAME "PNG24"
MIMETYPE "image/PNG"
DRIVER "GD/PNG"
EXTENSION "PNG"
IMAGEMODE RGBA
#TRANSPARENT ON
#TRANSPARENCY ALPHA
END
******layer definition:
LAYER
NAME "railway"
STATUS DEFAULT
TYPE LINE
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "CA_NAV_RAILRDS.TAB"
MAXSCALE 8000
SYMBOLSCALE 4000
TRANSPARENCY ALPHA
PROJECTION
"init=epsg:4326"
END
CLASS
NAME "railway"
STYLE
SYMBOL 'point'
COLOR 0 0 0
SIZE 5
MINSIZE 1
MAXSIZE 5
ANTIALIAS TRUE
END
STYLE
SYMBOL "dashedline"
COLOR 255 255 255
SIZE 3
MINSIZE 0
MAXSIZE 3
ANTIALIAS TRUE
END
END
NAME "railway"
STATUS DEFAULT
TYPE LINE
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "CA_NAV_RAILRDS.TAB"
MAXSCALE 8000
SYMBOLSCALE 4000
TRANSPARENCY ALPHA
PROJECTION
"init=epsg:4326"
END
CLASS
NAME "railway"
STYLE
SYMBOL 'point'
COLOR 0 0 0
SIZE 5
MINSIZE 1
MAXSIZE 5
ANTIALIAS TRUE
END
STYLE
SYMBOL "dashedline"
COLOR 255 255 255
SIZE 3
MINSIZE 0
MAXSIZE 3
ANTIALIAS TRUE
END
END
**
if all the definition is right, this function does not really make the output image nicer. and I've noticed that ANTIALIAS TRUE/FALSE is only useful for truetype font, but not for line features, which means only for truetype font symbols. or Did I do anything wrong?

Zhonghai,
PNG is 8bit, PNG24 is 24bit colour, with an 8bit transparency. So for
the ALPHA option, I think you need PNG24. Try this definition:
OUTPUTFORMAT
NAME PNG24
DRIVER "GD/PNG"
MIMETYPE "image/png"
EXTENSION PNG
IMAGEMODE RGBA
END
Then put:
TRANSPARENCY ALPHA
in your layer definition (not in OUTPUTFORMAT).
regards,
Jacob

Hi,
I am interested in this question, and I've tried like this:
*****
OUTPUTFORMAT
NAME "PNG"
MIMETYPE "image/PNG"
DRIVER "GD/PNG"
EXTENSION "PNG"
IMAGEMODE RGBA
TRANSPARENCY ALPHA
END
*****
I've noticed that there is no PNG24 output image format in the
mapfile reference document, and therefore I've used PNG.
but, I get the followig error message:
loadOutputFormat(): Unknown identifier. Parsing error near
(TRANSPARENCY):(line 114)
which means I caon only use TRANSPARENT as the the identifier as
listed in the mapfile reference document, and this parameter can only be
truned on or off.
any further ideas, Steve?
1000 thanks.

Hi,
I have added 'ANTIALIAS TRUE' to all my STYLE objects
but I do not see any difference in the map that's
displayed. I was hoping to see smooth lines but there
was no difference in the way lines(representing roads)
are drawn with or without anti-aliasing. Is this the
expected behavior? How can I get smooth lines?
My layer is defined as follows:
LAYER
NAME roads
DATA droad1
STATUS OFF
TYPE LINE
PROJECTION
"init=epsg:4326"
END
CLASS
NAME "Roads"
MAXSCALE 80000
MINSCALE 20000
STYLE
ANTIALIAS TRUE
COLOR 150 150 150
WIDTH 3
END
STYLE
ANTIALIAS TRUE
COLOR 255 255 255
WIDTH 1
END
END
END
