<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I'm using a program generated query to fetch a
transparent PNG file of about 1600 pixels square from a streets & roads
database in Iowa. A sample URL is pasted below my sig
lines.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>It works great, but the problem is that the features
from a different layer (aerial photo) in which I am interested will usually be
within the center 1/4 of the picture, and it usually gets cropped to center on
that feature, which blows away some of my labels.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Is there any way to force the labels closer to the
(x,y) center of the returned PNG file while still following along whatever
feature they are identifying?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>That is to say, if there is one on a north/south road,
we'd like it to be nearer the Y center of the pic, and if one is on an
east/west road, then have it be closer to the X center of the
picture.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Any magic we can invoke to do *that*????</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Sincerely,</FONT></DIV>
