hi, i have a postgre table with the column of anchor position and orientation. Orietation defines the angle in tenths of degree and the anchor position is a number between 0 and 8 that specifies which part of the text is bound to the anchor point. 
Each text string that is captured with cartographic information has a location in the text string, known as its anchorPosition, which is bound to the digitised coordinate, known as its anchorPoint. There are nine defined locations, identified by the numbers 0–8.

how can i use this anchor position for showing the lable acccordinly, because using only the orientation in the ANGLE is not labling correctly.
