Mapserver Bug with Curved Labels

[Rodriguez, Heraldo]

Hi everyone 

                   Any news with the problem I reported a week ago?  In my
previous mail  I mentioned that we were experiencing some problems using the
ANGLE FOLLOW new feature and the workaround listed in the bug list didn´t
work for us  We really need to fix this issue , and we  will appreciate any
help you can provide. Thanks in advance.

Asunto: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] Mapserver Bug #2020

 

Hi everyone,

                     Six days ago we upgraded mapserver to version 4.10.2
and we are experiencing some problems with short labels using the ANGLE
FOLLOW new feature. The odd behaviour is exactly the same reported in the
ticket #2020 in the mapserver bug list.

      Our problem is that the work around listed there is not working for
us. I created the function in postgres with the current user that is running
the mapserver application, but nothing changed.

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION pad(cString TEXT) RETURNS TEXT AS $$
BEGIN
    RETURN cString || repeat(' ', 4 - char_length(cString));
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

 

      I am doing something wrong?

 

      If anyone used this fix, I will appreciate a more detailed explanation
of the work around. I am not very skilful with postgres so any additional
information will be valuable.

      Thanks in advance.
