KML/KMZ download from redline is useless when map CS is WGS84.PseudoMercator

Description

In a Flexible Layout in any browser that uses WGS84.PseudoMercator as the Map CS:

  1. Draw a redline (try SDF > Line String), and download a KML or KMZ of the redline.
  2. Drop the KML or KMZ file into Google Earth.

Result: Nothing happens.

I think this is a bug in 2 areas:

  1. MapGuide's KML renderer.
  2. The default redline style settings for lines.

The line string geometry is there, but the style generated for it uses line width of 0 (assuming no changes from the default redline style), causing nothing to be drawn.

The default style uses a 0 line thickness. The default image-based renderers in MapGuide seem to clamp 0 line thickness to some very small value > 0 (which is why we still see such lines being rendered), but the KML renderer does not and writes the thickness value as-is.

Workaround is to specify a non-zero line thickness as a default, proper fix is to make the KML renderer follow the same behaviour as the image-based renderers for dealing with 0 line thickness.

Problematic redline data store (SDF)

I stand corrected, I just drew some redlines and KML export produced a blank KML file on export. The offending data store has been attached.

Hi Andy, could you try the attached patch to see if it fixes the issue?

Hi Jackie, thank you very much for the fix. The patch works well in my test. One more thing: the DownloadMarkupAsKml is using the deprecated open method of MgMap:

        $map = new MgMap();
        $map->Open($resourceService, $this->args['MAPNAME']);

Could you please update it to

        $map = new MgMap($this->site);
        $map->Open($this->args['MAPNAME']);

Thank you!
