[mapguide-users] FW: Problems while labeling polylines

[azpublic]

If you look at the region of my attachment in google maps (Geneva
Switzerland) you can notice on smaller streets that the name does go upside
down. But its quite rare and certainly not as frequent as in mapguide.
Moreover the size of the font is relatively constant from one street to
another ...

I wouldn't count it as exactly a "bug". I think it is a reasonable behaviour
for that it attempts to display as many line labels as possible. These are
only obscured by the presence of other objects in close vicinity, or the
length of the line, which makes the labels smaller and/or force them to take
the direction the line is taking.

Similar behaviour is seen in Google Maps etc.
