[mapserver-users] Displaying a line between objet and label

Hello,

I'm working on mapfiles featuring little linear objects, sometimes very
closed from each other. I have to label these objects with a quite long
string attribute value... Therefore, the positionning of the labels on the
line completely covers it, unless you zoom in considerably. So I'm trying to
position the labels on the sid of objects (OFFSET) but I would need a line
to be drawn automatically between each label and related object to make the
map clearer.

Has anybody already done this kind of set-up with mapfiles ? I can't find
anything in the official MapServer documentation.

Thanks for your help and advice (and sorry for my bad english) !

Thomas
