Composite Lines from MySQL Not Wrapping

[rbranson]

I'm using MapGuide 2.0.2. MySQL's FDO provider reports my 'LINESTRING' drawing (city streets) as being a generic geometry type, so MapGuide Studio shows style options for line, area, and points. It serializes this to XML with functionally "empty" AreaTypeStyle and PointTypeStyle XML:

<PointTypeStyle>
 <DisplayAsText>false</DisplayAsText>
 <AllowOverpost>false</AllowOverPost>
 <PointRule>
  <LegendLabel />
 </PointRule>
</PointTypeStyle>

.. etc. The correct line styles are in the XML. Upon rendering, overlapping road segments are not visually "merged" or "wrapped." See the attached "epicfail.png." If I remove the PointTypeStyle and AreaTypeStyle XML elements and their child tags, this problem goes away. See the attached "tehwin.png" This means I have to go clean up all the XML created by Studio users. While I'm glad I found a workaround, it's somewhat of an annoying problem.

NOTE: In attached image, the white lines w/black outline are the layer I'm talking about.

Hi, Please add step by step instructions for reproducing this problem. It also looks like a package will help. If it makes a difference on platform and install type please include that information as well. Tom

This look like a duplicate of #773

[rbranson]

Yup, looks like it is a duplicate of #773. Is the procedure to leave it around until the other one is fixed or mark it a dupe and go away?
