Ben, I would just turn off the Country Boundaries in the legend, do this by removing the class name from that layer's Class definition...

G'day all,

I have an application where the country layer (+/- admin boundaries) are drawn in last (so they overlay population density data). This means it is at the top of the legend.

The population densities are one layer (in a five step range (descending), ending with 0 (ie no animals) or no data (no record in the db)) , so "Country borders" (in one of three languages) intrudes some way across the map picture, about the middle of the map when the initial thumbnail for the users to click on to move to an interactive interface is presented.

(see picture, say "yuk"!, offer solution!)


I would like the Country boundaries legend item to be at the bottom of the legend... I note there is a movestyledown function, but I am not clear on where this might be used.

Does anyone : a) know if this function will do what I am looking for, or will it move the entire style down, obscuring the data behind the filled polygon?

b) have any code examples of how this might be (or where it has been) used?

cheers

Ben
