[mapserver-users] layer mask without clipping

2014-02-25 Thread Lars Lingner
Hello, I really like the MapServer layer mask feature. Is there a way that MapServer doesn't clip the mask, instead just setting a opacitiy / color value? I'm getting the result by rendering two passes with mask and inverted mask. The latter is using a white opacity layer on top. Afterwards I

I think that masked areas would simply appear semi-transparent, not totally hidden. -Jukka Rahkonen- thomas bonfort wrote: Lars, I don't understand what you're trying to obtain. Can you clarify and/or post a couple screenshots? -- thomas On 25 February 2014 09:58, Lars Lingner

That's a weird one. It kinda sounds like a data issue for that certain area more than a mapserver issue. I mean, if there was something funky going on with image size and scale computation I'd expect all images at that zoom level and image size to be blank, not just one. I'd recommend further

In GeoMOOSE I would like to create a folder in the catalog section. This folder would not contain any data layers, it would just connect to multiple html documents that connect to PDFs and jpeg images. Is this possible to do? -- View this message in context:

(This might be a double post, I forgot my Gmail is not subscribed...) This isn't really the right list for this (try GeoMOOSE Users). But, since I'm here, I can answer the question: No, the current catalog doesn't support that kind of reference. I don't think it would be that hard to add an

Thanks for the response. The images are in a tif format and we used GDAL to create the tiling index (gdaltindex command). We ran the gdalinfo command against the imagery and nothing out of the ordinary stands out. The size of the tile that is giving us trouble is 5471, 5457. The tile to the

Do your tiffs have overviews? Changing the image size affects the map scale and thus potentially which overview is being used... -- thomas On 25 February 2014 16:52, Dash jim...@co.clackamas.or.us wrote: Thanks for the response. The images are in a tif format and we used GDAL to create the

Our tiff images do not have overviews. We are thinking that something may have happened during the transfer of the image from our Windows machine to Linux machine. I highly doubt this is the case but it's worth a shot. I was just reading about creating overviews. It seems this would increase

Hi, Overviews help at small scales. Let's assume that you have orthophotos with 1 meter native pixel size. If you want to show a 10x10 km area in a 500x500 pixel sized box in your application, it means that the pixel size of the output it 20 m. It is heavy to read 1x1 native pixels and
