<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Good morning. I've got some data
exported from InfoCad which is point information with text and an angle
(specifically its a parcel dimension layer). The data seems to be
triplicated (three records of the same data--though sometime more or less),
unfortunately the data is not directly on top of one another but slightly
off set. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The data in the .dbf file is not sequential,
so its not realistic to just null out the text label in sequential passess of
the data.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Does mapserver have anyway to use a first come
first label, so that it wont look triple typed. i.e. if a label already
occupies the space, it will only get one label?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thank you for any suggestions.</FONT></DIV>
