[Chameleon] LayerManager widget doesnt always work

[Doug H]

Hi Julien,

Looks like I am still getting the same error. I switched over to the
legendtemplate widget but now I cant seem to have a layer 'selected'.
the legendtemplate widget also doesnt seem to like annotation layers.
Any idea what that is all about? here are some annotation layer
exampes from my mapfile:

  LAYER
    NAME "rural ward annotation"
    STATUS OFF
    DATA "r_ward_anno"
    TYPE ANNOTATION
    MINSCALE 1
    MAXSCALE 100000
    LABELITEM "STREETNAME"
    LABELANGLEITEM "ROTATION"
    LABELCACHE ON
    CLASS
      NAME "rural ward anno"
      LABEL
        TYPE TRUETYPE
        FONT "arial"
        SIZE 9
        OFFSET 0 0
        COLOR 0 0 0
      END
    END
  END

  LAYER
    NAME "rural settlement annotations"
    STATUS OFF
    DATA "r_settle_anno"
    TYPE ANNOTATION
    MINSCALE 1
    MAXSCALE 100000
    LABELITEM "Label"
    LABELANGLEITEM "rotation"
    LABELCACHE ON
    CLASS
      NAME "rural settle annotations"
      LABEL
        TYPE TRUETYPE
        FONT "arial"
        SIZE 9
        OFFSET 0 0
        COLOR 0 0 0
      END
    END
  END

  LAYER
    NAME "rural street annotation"
    STATUS OFF
    DATA "r_street_anno"
    TYPE ANNOTATION
    MINSCALE 1
    MAXSCALE 10000
    LABELITEM "Text"
    LABELANGLEITEM "Angle"
    LABELCACHE ON
    CLASS
      NAME "rural street annotation"
      LABEL
        TYPE TRUETYPE
        FONT "arial"
        SIZE 9
        OFFSET 0 0
        COLOR 0 0 0
      END
    END
  END


Thanks for your help,
Doug
