This patch has greatly improved the readability of the labels on a project that I'm working on, thanks. Hope it makes it into core.<div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 24 December 2010 09:11, Roald de Wit <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:list@rdewit.net">list@rdewit.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<br>
I've created a patch that introduces a new feature: label halos for vector features (See [1]). It helps making text labels readable on all backgrounds.<br>
There is now a request to include having a background with border around the text as well [2]. I'm happy to have a look at this over the X-mas break, but I'd like to get some feedback from the core devs first whether or not the initial patch is the way to go, especially wrt the VML implementation.<br>
<br>
When you have a spare few minutes, could you please have a look at the patch and comment on it?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
