Rotating labels

[Michael Schulz]

Dear List,

i am drawing an annotation that is rotated according to a field in the
dbf-file (with LABELANGLEITEM). It seems these rotation-values have been
computed for a rotation in a counter clockwise sense, but Mapserver
rotates it in the opposite direction.

Is there a possibilty to recalculate this angle value on-the-fly or with
an expression in the map-file (e.g. (360 - [ANGLE_ITEM]), or would i
have to change something in the source code (if so, Steve, could you
tell me where and what to look for?) ?

Thanks, Michael
