I am using the MapScript API (php_mapscript_5000.so) to generate a map
file, but am running into some problems when trying to set the label
angle properties.
I can set the angle to a float using:
$oMsClass->label->set("angle", 45);
Output: ANGLE 45.000000
Setting the autoangle using
$oMsClass->label->set("autoangle", MS_TRUE);
Output: ANGLE AUTO
If i attempt to set the angle to a string using
$oMsClass->label->set("angle", "follow")
Which can be done directly in a mapfile (ANGLE follow)
Output: ANGLE 0.000000 (seems the string is being converted to float,
which IS what the angle property expects)
But when I want to set the autofollow property using
$oMsClass->label-set("autofollow", MS_TRUE);
I get the error "Fatal error: Property 'autofollow' does not exist in
this object"
The documentation on the website for the API is for version 4.10. I
can't seem to find any docs for version 5. Is anybody able to point me
to updated docs or help me with this specific issue.
