[mapserver-users] Re: annotations in mapserver 5.4

[Steve Lime]

If you get rid of the class min/max scales do the problems go away? What if you put those constraints
at the layer level (with only one class that should work). Also, the layer defn is confusing since it doesn't 
hint at a marker yet the images missing labels definitely do have a marker accompanying the text.
