[mapguide-users] Re: controlling label placement

[Mark Volz]

Hello,

Thank you everyone for your ideas on how to make sure that labels inside a polygon.  It seems that the best option is to use expressions for various scales such as Area2D(Geometry) > 20000.

To avoid setting up several scale rules for labeling, Is it possible to get the current map scale as a rule within the expression editor? For example I would like to set up the following expression:

Area2D(Geometry) / TheCurrentMapScale   >5 

Thanks

Yes.  Think about it.   Just simply theme different rules using size as the criteria.
