Subject: [mapguide-users] What am I doing wrong with labeling

Hello,

I'm working in AIMS 2012 and trying to create a multiline label for a polygon and cannot get the newline to work. What am I doing wrong?

The expression I have is:  Concat ( Precinct , '\n' , Pct_Hispan  )
Precinct is text: 'Corizo'
Pct_Hispan is text: '2.1 %'

I tried a URLENCODE(Pct_Hispan) thinking maybe the space and % were hanging things up. No Joy.

Finally, I tried a very simple  Concat ( 'Line 1' , '\n' , 'Line 2'  ) and get back a label of 'Line 1Line 2'

Any pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Tom
