Thanks Gabriel,
at last last i´ve got GWC working with custom scales!...the bit that wasn´t
really very well documentated was the crucial last bit with the
<wmslayers>....Now it´s working I understand the principle much better.
I am now looking at the XML schema regarding "resolutions",
"scaleDenominators", or "levels".
I have seen now custom geowebcache.xml examples which define either levels or
scaleDenominators. Is there a reason for this..or do all methods of defining
map levels work equally well?
thanks again,
Rob
