<p class=MsoNormal>I have an issue with labels drawing on top of symbols.
In the attached JPG ( also at http://craig.gis.edsi.com/rendering_error.jpg),
the road symbol (617) should be drawn on top of the map label (015). I
have my road layer set above the map border layer in Studio, verified it in
Maestro via XML.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I looked at RFC 29 via this link:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/wiki/MapGuideRfc29<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Setting this to 0 of course sends it behind the line drawn
(expected behavior). Setting it to a higher number (went as high as 20)
seems to have no effect.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>So is this a bug that rendering pass does not work
correctly? Or am I missing something? If so, what is the proper
usage in this situation?<o:p></o:p></p>
