Hi all
I did something really fancy ... Multiple overlapping Distance Buffers
on a MultiPoint Layer (distance from Hydrants, one layer for all of
them) ... so great. Until I looked at the result and read that:
"At the LAYER level (since 6.4), the original vector geometry (“real
world” coordinates) is used. At the STYLE level, pixel coordinates are
used."
eh? why that? Things like Buffer one almost always wants “real world”,
no? Like a distance around hydrants, a bus stations? In pixels?
Would be great if GEOMTRANSFROM would support SIZEUNITS. Or at least the
opposite of this, such as have real world on the STYLE level ...: "It
may be useful to apply pixel values also at the LAYER level, and that is
possible. If UNITS is defined in the LAYER, the [map_cellsize] variable
can be used to convert to pixel values at the LAYER level:"
