[Chameleon] Scalebar and Cursorpos widgets

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Kevin,

1)

do you mean embedding the scalebar into your map image? Don't use the widget then, just use the SCALEBAR in your MAP file and set STATUS EMBED.

2)

I use them next to each other, eg you can use a table like I am doing here below:

<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td><span class="label">Afstand:</span><cwc2 type="RulerResult" visible="true" widgetclass="inputBox"/></td>
    <td><span class="label">X:</span><cwc2 type="Cursorpos" axis="X" widgetclass="inputBox"></cwc2></td>
    <td><span class="label">Y:</span><cwc2 type="Cursorpos" axis="Y" widgetclass="inputBox"></cwc2></td>
    <td><span class="label">Schaal: </span><cwc2 type="Scale" SUBMITONKEYPRESS="true" widgetclass="inputBox" /></td>
    <td><cwc2 type="Scalebar" units="KILOMETERS" visible="true" width="200" height="3"></cwc2></td>
    <td><span CLASS="label">Straal [m]: </span><input CLASS="inputBox" type="text" name="RADIUS" value="0"></td>
  </tr>
</table>

Best regards,
Bart

Hi,
Can somebody tell me how I embed the scalebar  within my map frame? 
My widget syntax is
 <cwc2 type="Scalebar"
      imagetype="PNG"
      units="meters"
      visible="true"
      width="150"
      height="3"
      intervals="2"
      backgroundcolor="255 255 255"
      outlinecolor="0 0 0"  <!--0 0 0 is black-->
      labelcolor="0 0 0"
      color="255 255 255"
      transparent="true">
      </cwc2>

In my .map file I don't have the SCALEBAR object - seems the widget 
overrides the scalebar syntax from the .map anyway.

Also, can you have widgets displayed 'side by side'?  For example, 
displaying the cursor x and y position uses the following widgets:
<cwc2 type="Cursorpos" axis="X" label="Easting: " labelposition="8" 
labelvalign="middle" labelclass="label" widgetclass="inputBox"></cwc2>
     <cwc2 type="Cursorpos" axis="Y" label="Northing: " labelposition="8" 
labelvalign="middle" labelclass="label" widgetclass="inputBox"></cwc2>
 
And the result reads something like:
Easting:  ####
Northing:  #####

I would like to display the result as    Easting: ####     Northing: #####
Any ideas?

Thanks.

Kevin
