[Mapserver-users] rotating labels

[Jon Shorie]

I have a project where I am trying to get the roadnames to follow the road (in 
other words be rotated in the same direction as the road).  Is such a thing 
possible.  Here is the relevant section of my .map file

LAYER
  NAME medcocel
  TYPE LINE
  STATUS DEFAULT
  DATA medcocel
  GROUP roads
  CLASS
    NAME "Medina County Centerlines"
    TEMPLATE "medcocel.html"
    COLOR 208 159 145
  END

  HEADER "medcocel_header.html"
  FOOTER "medcocel_footer.html"

  TOLERANCE 5

  DUMP TRUE # allow GML export

  METADATA
    WMS_TITLE "Centerlines"
    WMS_ABSTRACT "Medina County Centerlines"
    WMS_SRS "EPSG:26915"
  END
END # medcocel

LAYER
  NAME medcocel_anno
  GROUP roads

    LABEL

  END
