There is new "filter" button in layers panel that toggles this functionality and in composer legend widget. Related feature is that layer tree now shows symbols in map units with correct size (even when filtering is not enabled) so as the map view changes the legend node icons are updated too (if they use map units). GetLegendGraphics in WMS server ------------------------------- This is an extension of standard GetLegendGraphics request according to MapServer RFC 101. See the document for more details: http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-101.html In summary, clients need to add BBOX and CRS/SRS parameters to get appropriate legend based on the given map view. Parameters WIDTH and HEIGHT are also taken into account as they specify map view image size for correct calculation of size of legend symbols (if they are based on map units). -- This software has been commissioned by Tuscany Region (Italy), co-funded by the European Commission and developed under the project LIFE12 ENV/IT/001054 LIFE + IMAGINE.

README for QGIS
----------------------------------------
QGIS is an Open Source Geographic Information System. The project was born in
May of 2002 and was established as a project on SourceForge in June of the same
year. We've worked hard to make GIS software (which is traditionally expensive
commercial software) a viable prospect for anyone with basic access to a
Personal Computer. QGIS currently runs on most Unix platforms, Windows, and OS
X. QGIS is developed using the Qt toolkit (http://qt.digia.com) and C++. This
means that QGIS feels snappy to use and has a pleasing, easy to use graphical
user interface.
QGIS aims to be an easy to use GIS, providing common functions and
features. The initial goal was to provide a GIS data viewer. QGIS has
reached that point in its evolution and is being used by many for their
daily GIS data viewing and editing needs. QGIS supports a number of raster
and vector data formats, with new support easily added using the plugin
architecture.
QGIS is released under the GNU Public License (GPL) Version 2. Developing
QGIS under this license means that you can (if you want to) inspect and
modify the source code and guarantees that you, our happy user will always
have access to a GIS program that is free of cost and can be freely
modified.
Supported raster formats include:
Grass
USGS DEM
ArcInfo binary grid
ArcInfo ASCII grid
ERDAS Imagine
SDTS
GeoTiff
Tiff with world file
Supported vector formats include:
ESRI Shapefiles
PostgreSQL/PostGIS
GRASS
Spatialite
Other OGR supported formats

SUPPORT - You can get support in the following ways:
1. Using the QGIS community site at http://qgis.org
2. Joining the qgis-users mailing list at:
http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
3. Using IRC by joining the #qgis channel on irc.freenode.net.
Please wait around for a response to your question as many
folks on the channel are doing other things and it may take a
while for them to notice your question.
QGIS is on GitHub at http://github.com/qgis/QGIS. If you wish to contribute
patches you can fork the project, make your changes, commit to your
repository, and then issue a pull request. The development team can then
