[GRASSLIST:340] ps.map sites size_att

Radim (or others),

I am trying to use eps files with triangles as site icons in ps.map with
the size_att command. Do I understand correctly that size_att works in
proportion to the number of pixels in the eps file ?

EPS is scaled by size_att, I think. If the original size of icon is 5mm and
size_att 2, the size of icon in output map should be 10mm.

EPS is scaled by size_att, I think. If the original size of icon is 5mm
and
size_att 2, the size of icon in output map should be 10mm.

So that means the height of th triangle, or the length of its sides, will
be multiplied ?

Yes, but multiplied by 'size * size_att' to be precise, I hope.
