Maestro Point Style - FontSymbolType Support

[crispinatime]

The existing Maestro point-style editing is limited by the GUI to the simple 'Mark' options. MapGuide supports fonts and symbols also for point representation.

The current workaround is hand-crafting XML.

This ticket is for FontSymbolType support.

Sample Implementation as DIFF Files for Review

Additional elements to allow save and colour management

For some reason the Trac does not send notifications when adding attachments, so I have just discovered the diffs.

I will apply them to Maestro shortly, thanks!

Hi Crispin,

the patch looks good and clean, I will try to fix up on the TODO's where applicable.

Before I can commit the changes, you need to sign a Contributor Licens Agreement: http://mapguide.osgeo.org/files/Individual%20Contributor%20Agreement.pdf

Crispin, you have hardcoded font names with a remark to move them into the xml file. Would there be a problem with showing fonts avalible on the local machine instead? Obviously, the user can only use server fonts, but until this is resolved wouldn't this be better?

[ksgeograf]

I have cleaned it up a bit, and added support for Bold, Italic and Underline.

A full modified patch is attached to this ticket.

I have written you as "Crispin" on the Credits tab, please notify me, if you want something else.

Thanks Kenneth,

The URL for the agreement was not loading, but I found the corporate link OK from here: http://mapguide.osgeo.org/developer.html

Any credit should be to "1Spatial Group Ltd" as it's strictly work time that goes into the edits. I'm getting the agreement signed ... should it be attached here or submitted elsewhere?

[ksgeograf]

You must fax the agreement (or snail mail it) to the adresse/fax mentioned in the agreement.

We received the signed agreement and 1Spatial has been added to the list: ​http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Contributor_Agreements_Received
