Hi Nathan,<br>
Thanks for the quick reply. I've once (a while ago) tried compiling
my own qgis version and failed, and without adequate internet
connection it's too much frustration to solve it. Maybe it's time to
give it another go, if I can muster the courage, otherwise I'll wait
for it to appear!<br>

<div>It's not possible in the current build as my changes haven't
been merged in yet. I have run it pass a few of the devs and
they are happy with the progress so far, it's just a matter of
me cleaning a few things up once I get the chance. </div>

<br>
is it already possible to use expression based labels, and
if so, how can we get it? If you need someone to do some
testing on Windows we're happy to do that. <br>

merge it in. Until then you will need to create a
