and one more labeling question...

[Jeff Portwine]

I have seen mapserver maps with street names angled to follow the streets...  how do you set the angle of the text?   I've tried adding  "ANGLE  AUTO" to the label section of my mapfile, but I don't know what to use for "ANGLELABELITEM"... i've never seen a shapefile of any kind that had an attribute showing its angle... is there some way to calculate this from the shapefile data?

Thanks again,
Jeff
