Menus

Menus work like in desktop applications . Unlike these however, they can be moved (by dragging their border) , and turned from horizontal to vertical and vice versa (by shift-clicking the border) . Submenus can be nested without limits. Submenus can be moved too and additionally they can be pinned to the desktop by clicking the border without moving . The border will turn red, and after clicking a second time without moving the submenu will disappear again. Menus with a blue border cannot be removed from the desktop.

The more than 100 projections available in the library (on which MapServer's transformations are based) have been included in the menu system. The order is that of the author's (Gerald Evenden) manual: cylindrical (e.g. Gall) , pseudo-cylindrical (e.g. Sinusoidal) , conic (e.g.Polyconic) , azimuthal (e.g. Stereographic) and miscellaneous, mostly historical ones, like Ortelius .
