Brilliant, thanks. I had to mess with the ratio of sizes a bit, but the following works:<div><br></div><div><div># Interstate</div><div> CLASS</div><div> EXPRESSION "I1"</div><div> STYLE</div><div> SYMBOL "inter_base"</div>
<div> SIZE 20</div><div> COLOR 0 0 255</div><div> OUTLINECOLOR 255 255 255</div><div> END</div><div> STYLE</div><div> SYMBOL "shield_bar"</div><div> SIZE 4</div><div> COLOR 255 0 0</div>
<div> OFFSET 0 -8</div><div> END</div><div> LABEL</div><div> TYPE truetype</div><div> FONT "arial"</div><div> SIZE 6</div><div> COLOR 255 255 255</div><div> MINDISTANCE 200</div>
<div> PARTIALS false</div><div> POSITION CC</div><div> ANGLE 0</div><div> END # end label</div><div> END #end class</div></div><div><br></div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Oct 15, 2010 at 6:57 AM, Stephen Woodbridge <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:woodbri@swoodbridge.com">woodbri@swoodbridge.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Hi All,<br>
<br>
I'm stuck. How do I get US Interstate highway shields to display properly?<br>
<br>
I got my annotation layer to display road shields, but I cannot figure<br>
out how to display a 2-part interstate shield symbol with the parts<br>
properly lined up. I have a base outline that displays in blue, and a<br>
red top-bar that displays in red. Unfortunately, the bar sits in the<br>
middle of the base, rather than at the top. I have a road shields .ttf<br>
file that has shields in multiple pieces as well - same problem.<br>
<br>
How are these supposed to be done?<br>

<br></div></div>
Use the OFFSETX and OFFSETY paramaters to nudge the pieces into place.<br>
