[mapguide-users] Line labels

[Kori Maleski]

Traian,

I should note that there is an issue with GetTile function and the line
label display.

When viewing a tiled map with the viewer - the labeling algorithm works -
every line is NOT labeled.  The segments are joined for proper label
display.

However - if you request tiles via the GetTile function with MgTileService -
EVERY line is labeled.

This is with the MGE SP1 version.  Not sure if this has been addressed in
the latest MGO release.

Also, there is an issue with line labeling when utilizing composites.
The label will shrink to fit within the composite line to the degree that it
becomes unreadable in some instances.  The end result is line segments with
varying label sizes - when the layer settings have a single label size
specified.  This is again with the tiled map.


Cheers,

Hi Martin,

MapGuide is supposed to do a similar thing -- there is some logic that
joins line segments with the same label together if they are close
enough. I'm not sure how your data is organized (linestring,
multilinestring), it may be confusing the algorithm.

When I label a road (multi lines), I have one label for each section. I
think it's possible to have only one label for my road. MapServer can do
it. MapGuide? How??
