1. annotation is a point, you can not repeat along a point<br>
2. annotation is deprecated in 6.2 and will be going away in the future<br>
<br>
You might try creating a line feature and label that with repeatdistance. Or create a grid of points that you can use to position you disclaimer labels with.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I notice the repeatdistance don't work on a label of a type annotation<br>
layer.<br>
<br>
I read the doc.<br>
Seem the repeatdistance work only with a line layer.<br>
But I guess it could work also with the annotation.<br>
When the goal is the put many disclaimers on a map.<br>
<br>
Is this an enhancement feature or a bug of the actual repeatdistance<br>
command. ?<br>
<br>
This is my mapfile:<br>
<br>
